A new report has revealed a major name that may be set to return to WWE when the company is sold.
On January 10 2023, it was announced that Stephanie McMahon had resigned from her position as co-CEO of WWE.
This followed Vince McMahon being brought back to WWE and unanimously voted as Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors. McMahon made his return to facilitate a sale of the company and the media rights deal.

“these companies are doing their due diligence, they’re following the news cycles, regardless of their public levels of interest.”
“They’re aware of the things that would make audiences and staff happy. They believe Stephanie seemed to bring a lot of positive to the company. The company’s progression under Nick Khan was also played up.”
As previously reported, some within WWE are expecting that a sale of the company could be coming soon.
