I sure as hell wouldn't bring Brock back Oh yeah, that dream match with Walter aint happening now. I'd expect to hear that a few more wrestlers knew about this too. Taker, Cena, Brock - weren't they the three that went to Vince's birthday dinner when he quit first time round? Brock is a safe bet given his alleged involvement in this, but the others it’s hard to say. There have been stories about people who would have dinner and drinks with their neighbor for years, not knowing he was holding women hostage in his basement (one interview about this, “Dead giveaway”, became a meme for a while several years ago). John Gacy’s neighbors took his word that that foul smell was dead rodents in the crawlspace. You may think you know someone, but if they want to hide a secret hard enough, they will. |

There's also no way HHH, Nick Khan and everyone else didn't know this whole time either. Ugh. How do we know this? If you don't think essentially the guy running the business side and the guy running creative...once of which is married into the family, had no idea what was going on as Vince is sharing explicit videos and photos with the tech crew...yea I dunno what to tell you. |

Let's be real, nothing is going to happen to Vince. He's a rich white man, which means he's untouchable.

Triple H has to go down as well in my book as there is no way on earth he didn't know about these things let alone his own failings and I imagine he has a bunch of skeletons in his closet himself so he can go to hell to. I hope a lot of the talent working in WWE have second thoughts on staying with this rotten company I think due to "Papa H" people forget that from the start Triple H was a rutheless politician, willing to shake hands and bury anyone on his way to the top. Not gonna accuse him of having any skeletons in his closet myself, but he absolutely would ignore any sort of abuse. |

I don't know if I can do this. I can't imagine any way that the current people in charge of the shows I do enjoy like HHH/HBK didn't know. I'm kinda with Allie on this one, except maybe not a full blown destruction but a period of time where all the shows are postponed and shit can actually change but I'm also not dumb enough to think that would change anything. They'd just wait it out. At the end of the day, this is still pro wrestling. Vince should have been out of the business years ago, but more specifically after 2022, and he still came back. To regular media, it's still a circus, and the pro wrestling media needs their access and won't stand up for it. Vince associated himself with the ONE guy that should have made the mainstream media, AND law enforcement snap to attention and want to take him down, and they STILL didn't try to take him down. |

While I'm sure Stephanie, Paul, Shane and whoever else knew Vince was dodgy I'm not too comfortable saying "They knew! Get rid of them all!"
They knew what Vince wanted them to know. Think of how disgusted we are reading all that, now imagine reading it about your own Dad.

I'm feeling sick reading this. And this is only one complaint. How many MORE people did Vince and his enablers affect? How many looked the other way? It keeps getting worse the more I read. Bryan Alvarez, a few moments ago on Observer Live, asked "how many other NDA's are 'unenforceable'?" and that's also genuinely terrifying. Wealthy people in power are genuinely frightening, man...playing with people's lives like this. I hope everyone involved on the WWE end receives the utmost consequences (but knowing corporate life, I'm not holding my breath). Yea we only know about this because Vince decided to not pay this NDA...what about all the other ones? |

Not making light of anything, but I misread that as Joe Gacy. |

That's very true. As I've said in other posts, people may have know bits, but only Johnny Ace and Brock seem to be named as knowing it all (so far). Vince was doing this for a long time, I'm sure he knew all the tricks to cover up what needed to be covered, and bragged about just enough to make himself look 'big' to the boys. |

Think of how disgusted we are reading all that, now imagine reading it about your own Dad. It trickled down to multiple executives (unamed at the moment of the suites,short of Lauriatis) and wrestlers like Brock. People that have been on top for decades will know SOMETHING. Maybe not "Vince raped her in the hallway" specifics but absolutely "Vince has signed multiple NDAs for sexual assault" and more. |

So the Mr McMahon character was actually Vince turned down about 75%.

Oh the horror stories some of the Divas must have. Consider the fact of many of them had to kiss and make out with Vince on camera. I shudder to think how he treated them behind closed doors. |

I think as well, the personality cult that I mentioned a few pages back extends to wrestlers as well. You hear all these wrestlers talk about how he made them and is their hero and father figure and whatever else, it's again all part of the manipulation because no one wants to believe this kind of shit about someone they hold in such high esteem. It's possible they knew and didn't want to believe it or something, I don't know. |

Hell, as someone posted, there is a TV SEGMENT about Vince sexually trafficking Stephanie. That is definitely braging to the world he is untouchable. |

Think of how disgusted we are reading all that, now imagine reading it about your own Dad. I don't disagree with that, but I think WWE as it exists now is the fruit of the poisonous tree. The whole company was grown and built into what it is by Vince McMahon. I don't know that I agree that the company deserves the death penalty or thousands of people deserve to lose their jobs over this, but I just can't fathom how, if even a scintilla of this is true, you separate Vince McMahon from the company he created. This all happened on WWE, as a corporation's, watch. I'm bad about making sports comparisons, but I can't discern how this is any different from Penn State being severely punished for allowing Jerry Sandusky to flourish and victimize within the framework of its football program. |
