"Vince McMahon's Knockout: The Inside Story"

Vince McMahon's tenure as executive chairman of TKO Group Holdings, the owner of WWE, came to an end following a bombshell lawsuit from a former WWE employee accusing him of sex trafficking and battery. The lawsuit led to a major sponsor pausing its promotional activities, impacting the company's bottom line. McMahon ultimately resigned from TKO, with the company seeking to distance itself from his alleged past transgressions. The lawsuit's graphic details took senior leadership and company talent by surprise, prompting TKO to take the matter seriously and act immediately. McMahon's departure may allow the company to move forward without his influence, but his significant ownership stake still raises questions about his long-term impact on TKO.
