Vince McMahon reportedly planning WWE return despite mounting sexual assault accusations

The second one refers to a separate email Mr. McMahon's attorney received in November. In it, Michael Bressler, a lawyer for a former manager of a California spa resort, claims his client was sexually assaulted by Vince McMahon back in 2011. The incident was reported at the time but nothing was made of it. So much so, that sources close to the story claim that the victim's husband had shown up to a WWE live event with a baseball bat looking for McMahon.

Regardless of the legal outcome, these allegations are incredibly damaging to the legacy of Mr. McMahon. Despite this, reports say Vince is attempting to come back to his former role as the head of the WWE.

The company has enjoyed a lot of success since McMahon's daughter Stephanie McMahon took over the CEO role alongside Nick Khan. Her spouse, Triple H, took over as the creative director, but it appears that Vince McMahon remains a powerful figure.

McMahon is still a majority owner of WWE stock and still has the final say on potential sales and his future. The Board of Directors might not be brave enough to willingly risk losing the audience's goodwill and reinstall the former Chairman with unsettled allegations looming above his head. Despite this, Vince McMahon will continue to be seen as one of the best pro wrestling promoters of all time.

As one of the pioneers in the professional wrestling business, McMahon is responsible for making the WWE the global juggernaut we have come to know today.
