Over a year since his resignation from WWE, Vince McMahon’s new company has been revealed.
Vince McMahon resigned from his position as Executive Chairman of TKO in January 2024 after former WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit against himself, WWE and John Laurinaitis, with allegations of sexual abuse and trafficking. In the latest update on that lawsuit, it emerged this week that Laurinaitis has been removed as a defendant.
In late 2024 it was reported that McMahon was planning to launch a new entertainment company, with several WWE alumni expected to involved, and now details regarding the new venture have finally been revealed.
With details obtained Wrestlenomics’ Brandon Thurston, McMahon’s new venture is an investment called 14th & I, focused on “sports, media and entertainment”.
According to public filings, McMahon filed registered Holdings, Investments and Management limited liability companies in Connecticut on September 20, 2024.
Two trademark applications for ’14th&I’ and ’14th & I’ were filed with the United States Patent & Trademark Office on August 23, 2024 to cover both private equity fund investment and entertainment production.
Former WWE executive Brad Blum has taken up the role of President of 14th & I according to his verified LinkedIn profile – which also provides further details on 14th & I as a company:
“14th & I is a private investment firm focused on the sports, media, & entertainment sectors. We are a disciplined, flexible, long-term capital and strategic partner, primarily targeting buyouts/majority deals, as well as selective growth-oriented minority investments. We seek to partner with and empower exceptional management teams, providing deep expertise, capability, and relationships to help drive significant long-term value.”
Another employee of 14th & I is David Spingarn, who’s listed as the Chief Investment Officer for the company on LinkedIn.
According to a 2006 WWE.com article, 14th & I Streets in Washington D.C. was where WWE’s predecessor the Capitol Wrestling Corporation was headquartered – a company previously led by Vince’s father Vince McMahon Sr.
Wrestlenomics noted that there is no current indication that McMahon’s new company is pursuing business related to wrestling.
