The allegations around former WWE CEO Vince McMahon continues to grow by the day. A few weeks after it was reported that McMahon paid $3 million in hush money to sexual assault victims, the Wall Street Journal dropped a bombshell report. In it, it's revealed that McMahon paid up to $12 million to four different women to cover up his misconduct.
According to the new article, the four women were all involved with the WWE to some capacity. The settlements include a female wrestler that McMahon coerced into giving her oral sex back in 2005. McMahon would proceed to demote and eventually release her after she resisted his next advances.
Other tidbits from the article involve McMahon paying a woman $1 million after she presented unsolicited nude pictures of the former CEO. Another woman (a former manager) was also paid the same amount to keep her quiet about her sexual affair with the then-WWE CEO.
The initial Wall Street Journal Report revealed that McMahon paid $3 million to a ex-paralegal to keep their relationship quiet. After the reports were released, McMahon would step down as the CEO of the WWE. He was replaced by his daughter Stephanie McMahon. That hasn't stopped Vinny Mac from making bizarre appearances on both Raw and Smackdown, however.
