Vince McMahon Controversy Is Against WWE’s Own Bylaws
Things aren’t looking good for Vince McMahon at this time.
Vince has a lot of controversy going on right now as he is currently being investigated by the WWE board regarding a quid pro quo between Vince and a paralegal who joined the company in the 2019. The investigation will cover all bases regarding the evidence available.
Now, things look even worse for Vince right now as it has been revealed the WWE Code Of Conduct features a segment regarding Quid Pro Quo’s with executives as of January 2022.
