A word about how those in WWE who are reacting to the big news today that Stephanie McMahon is serving as the interim CEO and Chairwoman of the company while Vince McMahon steps down temporarily as CEO and Chairman of WWE during his ongoing investigation has come out.
Per Fightful Select, several people backstage in the company have talked about the change. A top WWE Superstar said they didn’t really know what was going on, but that they’ve “heard in theory Stephanie McMahon is my boss, and that f**king rules.”
Another top WWE Superstar stated, “I imagine it won’t change much. But I love Steph. So that’s good. I imagine Vince keeps his position in creative and once the investigation is over he’ll take back over if he can.”
One former employee that worked with Stephanie said, “the tone was always that she would be in that role eventually. She knows and breathes the business and she’s seamless.”
This same person said the narrative around friction between Nick Khan and Stephanie wasn’t something they’d personally experienced.
