It was indeed unexpected when the WWE chief Vince McMahon, who had been running the show for 40 years, stepped down from all the positions at WWE. 

The Big Man retired after the allegations of harassment against him popped up recently. The payments made by Vince to his former female employees are now being investigated by the SEC, according to the ‘Wall Street Journal’ report. 

With McMahon out of the picture, his daughter Stephanie McMahon has officially taken the position as co-CEO with Nick Khan. Moreover, Triple H has also been assigned as the new Head of the Creative department at WWE.

However, following the big news, the entire wrestling universe had shared various reactions. WWE superstar Rey Mysterio had such a shocking reaction to the retirement of Vince McMahon.
