Vince McMahon was embroiled in a WWE Board of Directors investigation into hush money payments made to female employees with whom he reportedly had affairs with. He was also facing numerous accusations of sexual misconduct.<\/p>\n<p>McMahon returned to the company and seized power by brining two loyal board members with him and ousting three others &#8212; one of whom led the investigation into the hush money payments. McMahon is now the executive chairman of the board, but without Stephanie as CEO. Nick Khan remains CEO.<\/p>\n<p>Upon his return, McMahon has already been slapped with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2023\/01\/11\/lawsuit-filed-against-vince-mcmahon\/\">clash action lawsuit<\/a> regarding his return to the business.
