Major Update On Misconduct Allegations Against Vince McMahon

Vince McMahon has been making headlines frequently ever since it was reported that he paid $3 million to a former employee that he allegedly had an affair with. He then stepped down as Chairman and CEO of WWE while the WWE Board of Directors investigates the settlement and other non-disclosure agreements.

The Wall Street Journal is now reporting that Vince McMahon paid $12 million dollars to four women over the past 16 years to suppress allegations of sexual misconduct and infidelity. All four women were previously affiliated with WW, and the agreements they signed prevent them from discussing their relationship with Vince McMahon.

According to the report Vince McMahon paid $7.5 million to a former wrestler who alleged that McMahon coerced her into giving him oral sex. She also claimed that McMahon demoted her and declined to renew her contract in 2005 after she resisted more sexual encounters with him. The deal was reportedly negotiated in 2018 by the wrestler and her lawyer.

A WWE contractor was paid $1 million after she presented the company with unsolicited nude photographs that Vince McMahon sent to her. It was noted that she signed a non-disclosure agreement in 2008. A former manager was also reportedly paid $1 million in 2006 to keep quiet about her sexual relationship with Vince McMahon.

After Vince McMahon stepped down as Chairman and CEO it was announced that Stephanie McMahon had been appointed interim Chairwoman and CEO of WWE. Since then Vince McMahon has stayed in the public eye by making brief appearances on WWE programming.
