Vince was never going to survive this latest scandal he created by himself.
Legend? Yes.
But good riddance.

Yeah, as pointed out in the other thread, the WSJ must have something that’ll damage the company a lot.

I'll take this with a whole heap of salt, Vince is far, far too stubborn to retire and seems incapable of accepting he's ever done anothing wrong. He'll continue to micromanage the creative process without attending live events, then return full time once the heat has died down.

This should be its own thread. It’s the most monumental news story of my life time.

He'll continue to micromanage the creative process without attending live events, then return full time once the heat has died down. If he thought that way, he’d still be there or not even talk about retirement. Ace would be thrown out and that’ll be that. That’s the long and short of it. The fact he has is either he’s willing to tank the company off the idea of him not being there (which seems insane) or something’s about to come out to force him out.

We really went from Stephanie taking a leave of absence and being slandered when she was out, rumored by Vince and co themselves, and HHH also being removed from power... to Vince's walls finally crumbling all around him, being forced to step down as scandals came out about sexual misconduct... which given he's just retired effective immediately, might only be the tip of the iceberg... and Steph and HHH go right back into power.
This might be WWE's craziest year ever and that's saying a lot.

Nothing in his statement says anything about head of creative.

Nothing in his statement says anything about head of creative. How does one retire and not give up the head of creative? I think it'd be implied if he's retiring he's... done?

Forget smackdown tonight. He’s definitely coming out on Monday to announce it live—they’re at MSG that night.

Read the corporate release. He is retired from chairman and CEO. Nothing about his shares, nothing about his role in creative or television. I take back about it being a huge story. Until something comes out of about the other things, then this really is nothing.

I just got a “Breaking” alert from a local station news app about this, and hopped on FAN to get more info.
Yeah, this is going mainstream.
