The wrestling industry has been rocked by serious allegations against Vince McMahon, a polarizing figure in the world of sports entertainment. Amidst the ongoing debate and controversy surrounding McMahon, concerning allegations of trafficking, it appears that he no longer enjoys any defenders within WWE.
On January 25th, Janel Grant, a former WWE staff member, initiated legal proceedings against WWE, John Laurinaitis, and Vince McMahon, alleging incidents of sexual assault, emotional abuse, and sex trafficking dating back to March 2019. These allegations have cast a dark shadow over McMahon’s reputation and sparked widespread condemnation within the industry.
During a discussion on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer highlighted a significant shift in attitudes towards McMahon among individuals within the company. Meltzer noted that those who had previously defended McMahon now refrain from doing so, seemingly resigned to the fact that there is no viable defense for him anymore.
“People who were even in a situation where they’d been defending other people in the company, nobody bothers to try and defend Vince to me,” Meltzer remarked. “It’s almost like they’ve thrown in the towel on him. It’s like, ‘He’s gone and we can’t even try to defend him’.”
Even wrestling legend Jim Ross weighed in on the situation, suggesting that it’s time to move on from McMahon’s allegations. The lack of defenders and the severity of the accusations indicate a significant shift in the perception of McMahon within the industry.
As the allegations against McMahon continue to unfold, the future remains uncertain for the WWE chairman. With the loss of support from within the company, McMahon faces an uphill battle in navigating the repercussions of these damning allegations.
