WWE Names Stephanie McMahon Replacement

WWE

WWE has named one of the replacements for Stephanie McMahon following her leave of absence from WWE announced last month.

WWE announced today (June 6) that Catherine Newman will be the new executive vice president and head of marketing for the company.

While Stephanie filled all these roles, Newman’s job title is not the same as Stephanie’s title of Chief Brand Officer, so while not a like for like replacement for McMahon, she will be taking on some of her responsibilities.

Per WWE:

STAMFORD, Conn., June 6, 2022 – WWE® (NYSE: WWE) today announced that Catherine Newman has been named Executive Vice President and Head of Marketing.

Newman brings more than two decades of executive experience to WWE including her most recent role as Chief Marketing Officer of Manchester United Media. She has also held senior positions at The Times of London and Financial Times, leading global marketing initiatives, developing strategic partnerships, and boosting subscription growth across various products.

As part of WWE’s senior leadership team, Newman’s oversight will include Marketing, Brand, Community Relations, Entertainment Relations, Creative Services and Photography.

She is a graduate of Loughborough University, a Chartered Institute of Marketing Postgraduate from Buckinghamshire New University and a Fellow & Mentor in the Marketing Academy, United Kingdom.

A report in a recent business insider document notes that Vince McMahon himself was behind Stephanie’s corporate replacement.
