Current Champion Speaks Out On Stephanie McMahon Resignation

WWE

WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther has spoken out about the sudden and unexpected resignation of Stephanie McMahon from the company.

Stephanie McMahon suddenly and unexpectedly resigned her position as co-CEO of WWE on January 10, following the return of her father Vince McMahon to the company.

Following Vince McMahon’s return and reinstatement as executive chairman, rumors began to abound as to potential buyers for WWE with McMahon stating his intention upon returning was to facilitate a sale of the company.

In an interview with The Dallas Morning News, the former WALTER was asked his thoughts on the rumors of WWE being sold:

“I mean, rumors are rumors. And at the end of the day, I’m not the CEO. I’m a wrestler.

“So, I focus on what I do in the ring and leave the business to those who do business.”

He was also asked to give his thoughts on the resignation of the company’s former co-CEO and Chairwoman:

“To be fair, I only had very brief interactions with her.

“She’s always been very nice and very lovely. And yeah, I’m happy for her that she’s going to be able now to take time off and enjoy time with her family.

“And yeah, I think you should be happy for anyone who’s in a position to do that. All the best to her.”
