The WWE Universe recently witnessed the return of Vince McMahon as the Executive Chairman of the company. Since then, many are afraid to encounter the previous reign of The Evil Genius. Some even see it as a bad sign for WWE talents, PR, and Creative. However, WWE’s CEO believes that Mr. McMahon is currently more concerned about some other elements of the business. The Boss took his exit from the company in July 2022. After his departure, the creative work of the company came under his son-in-law, Triple H, while her daughter remained the Co-Ceo of WWE. However, recently she dethroned herself by making Nick Khan, the sole CEO of WWE.
