Former WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon is at the center of an ongoing investigation into millions of dollars paid to former female employees to silence allegations of sexual abuse, harassment and other misconduct. increase. 

 The improper payments were exposed by The Wall Street Journal. It was first reported in June that the WWE board of directors had launched an investigation into paying $3 million  to a former  employee McMahon had an affair with.

Subsequent SEC filings revealed that McMahon has authorized $14.6 million in total payments or adjustments to future payments  between 2006 and 2022.

 An investigation found that McMahon used personal funds to make the payments. However, according to WWE, the payment was for his WWE benefit and  should be recorded as such.

 Unrecorded costs associated with McMahon now amount to $19.6 million, and the company he once ran must now  clean up the financial mess. As a result, the filing of WWE‘s second quarter financial report has been delayed. 

  WWE plans to amend its financial statements for the first quarters of 2019, 2020, 2021 and  2022 to reflect McMahon’s inappropriate spending. , and internal controls.
