Insight Into How Vince McMahon Still Ran WWE During First Retirement

McMahon initially retired from July 2022 until January 2023.

Vince McMahon's final two years in WWE were turbulent. The longtime WWE Chairman resigned from the company this past January after former employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit that accused McMahon of sexual abuse and sex trafficking. While this particular lawsuit was enough to get McMahon to resign almost immediately, prior controversies were not as successful.

Despite what corporate titles said at the time, former WWE star Ronda Rousey revealed that McMahon never truly left his post. Bruce Prichard is a longtime professional wrestling backstage talent. He held producing positions in companies like TNA and MLW before returning to WWE in February 2019 in a creative capacity. Within that first year back, Prichard took over as Executive Director of WWE SmackDown. Come June 2020, Prichard also took on that position for WWE Monday Night Raw. Today, Prichard is simply known as the company's Executive Director.
