Linda McMahon Dodges Question About Vince McMahon’s Hush Money Scandal

Vince McMahon and Linda McMahon bought WWE from Vince’s father, Vincent J. McMahon, in 1982 and transformed it into a global phenomenon. The husband and wife duo also appeared on-screen together on multiple occasions.

Vince McMahon announced his retirement from WWE last Friday. The 77-year-old named daughter Stephanie McMahon and top employee Nick Khan as co-CEO’s. His son-in-law Paul Levesque aka Triple H was named head booker.

Linda McMahon made a public appearance for the America First Policy Institute. The 73-year-old was asked to comment on Vince McMahon’s retirement and tried her best to dodge the question.

She even told the reporter she didn’t want to comment on Vince or WWE but upon repeated insistence let her guard down. Linda had a few words on the situation. Here’s what she said:

“I’m not here to talk about Vince and WWE. I’m here to talk about AAPI.”

“You know what, he’ll just be deciding on how he’s going to spend his free time. I think that’s a good thing.”

She dodged a follow-up question about Vince McMahon’s hush money investigation after that. Obviously, Linda McMahon didn’t want to talk about it.

As previously noted, Vince and Linda are no longer together because their split reportedly happened long ago. They are still legally married but have not lived together for a significant time.

Linda McMahon could become Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, should Donald Trump win the 2024 elections. She has previously served as administrator of the Small Business Administration from 2017 to 2019.
