About Vincent McMahon

Vince McMahon resigned as executive chairman of TKO Holdings, owner of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), in January 2024.

McMahon is under a federal investigation, stemming from sexual misconduct allegations. In a statement, he called the accusations "made-up instances that never occurred."

A third generation wrestling promoter, McMahon grew up in a trailer park in North Carolina and joined his father's small wrestling company in 1972.

McMahon purchased the business 10 years later, then transformed the World Wrestling Federation from a regional operation into a global phenomenon.

WWF (now called WWE) went public in 1999; today its programs are broadcast in roughly 150 countries and more than 30 languages.
