Stephanie McMahon & Vince McMahon Had ‘Issues’ Working Together In WWE

WWE

With Stephanie McMahon resigning from WWE following Vince McMahon’s return as Executive Chairman, details of her reasoning may have been revealed.

It had previously been reported that both Triple H and Stephanie McMahon had opposed the sale of WWE, the purpose of Vince’s return.

The conflict between former Co-CEO Stephanie McMahon and her father and Chairman of the Board of Directors Stephanie McMahon was elaborated upon in a recent report from Dave Meltzer.

In the current issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (subscription required), Meltzer stated:

“It was also conceded that she and Vince did have issues in working together as family members and how (Nick) Khan was a buffer who kept things smooth between them as well as between Vince and Levesque (Triple H).”

He would address another aspect of Stephanie’s resignation, though wouldn’t comment on the claim further, saying:

“Some have tried to tie in Stephanie’s resignation to the fact that women are considered second-class in Saudi Arabia.”

News of Saudi Arabia purchasing WWE spread like wildfire only two days ago, though more recent reports have suggested that they’re “not the favorite people” according to those in WWE.

Following the rumors of a Saudi Arabia deal, the mood backstage at WWE was reportedly “very depressing”

More names have appeared over the past few days as interested parties in the sale of WWE, with Disney, Netflix and ESPN all being suggested.

It was also reported that AEW owners Tony and Shahid Khan have an interest in purchasing WWE as part of a merger with AEW.
