PWInsider:
“There is a belief that Endeavor may sweep out anyone close to #VinceMcMahon and his remaining team in order to have a complete fresh sweep of the company going forward. There were employees who exited the company when Vince initially resigned who returned when he forced his way back in. For those who have remained with #WWE post-Endeavor purchase, the belief among those we’ve spoken with tonight is their connection to McMahon may be a major negative going forward for their WWE status.”

I wonder if anything is going to disappear from the WWE Network. I was saying this to a friend yesterday, I certainly think it’s very likely. |

They’ve already censored things on the Network in the past, things like Vince ogling over women and the Trish stuff may disappear and seeing how quick he’s already gone from WWE, they may not even wait very long to pull it. |

Also regarding Cornettes thing, I listened to a large part of it yesterday and his take is extremely “just hearing it without all the details” in nature. Last is showing him the Wall Street journal report for the first time. He’s blown away in an”holy shit” kind of way. It’s more a hot take than a carefully measured reply to all Of this so I wouldn’t take it too seriously. What corny says after reflecting on it all, and if his stance stays the same, that’s a different story. It’s stupidity and naivety for Cornette and Last to report on a story of this nature and magnitude and think they can just wing it and shoot the shit about it, like they’re at the bar discussing an old Bobby Eaton fight with a fan. This is a rather high profile podcast discussing some horrendous allegations with major mainstream attention. Cornette’s gonna get himself canceled, especially with his own track record of kinky behavior with women. Not saying it’s right, but Cornette is a liberal in 2024. He can’t be this dumb about how cancel culture works, and he’s supported it against his political enemies. What a moron to go on the air unprepared and laugh and mock his way through this story. We’ll see what their follow up is. A lot of the podcast circle was stumbling over themselves to get audio uploaded as soon as possible on Thursday night or Friday morning. Bix and Zelner were also recording their regular weekly show and the “halftime”segment about current events when this broke, and they realized it was too long and too topical, so they uploaded Thursday night instead of Monday morning. The Last/Cornette YouTube clip was uploaded late Thursday night (those clips are usually a week behind on YouTube). Cornette and Last generally poke fun at Vince shit. I’m not listening to them for a hard hitting journalistic take like Bix is doing. What Khawk said, it was more of a “Holy Fucking Shit LOL” reaction. Poor taste? Maybe. |

Well Ronda Rousey of all people just threw gasoline on the fire, and three Bruce Prichard under the bus hard.
"Bruce Prichard is basically Vince's avatar, if he's still around Vince still has a hand in running the business. Vince was still running things through Bruce when he was 'gone' before."

This is also why they want to scrub anyone with a real Vince connection, and quickly. I think they’ll work hard not to scrub triple H, but may have to and if they do…who the heck are they bringing in to do his job? |

Ok, so we all know Vince probably had some “proclivities”….but to me if the texts and what happened in this case are true, it is a whole other level. I mean sick in more ways than one stuff.
So did Johnny Ace’s arrival ramp up Vince into a new stratosphere of weird?
I mean some of this hard to completely reconcile. He is supposedly a germ/clean freak yet is defacating. He nitpicked grammar, and verbiage in the past 20 years to the nth degree, yet that text looks like an uneducated redneck moron wrote it.
Did Johnny Ace and years of steroid abuse rot his brain and send him into orbit?
Again, I know he was probably into weird shit, but this weird shit is almost seems completely OTT.
And finally - you’ve got hundreds of millions, you can pretty much buy willing high end hookers, or gold diggers (higher end hookers). Why do you ever need to go this route? I never get that. Power absolutely corrupts and morally bankrupts people…….

I don't see how he couldn't know.
As for Vince still running things while he was 'gone', is anyone surprised at that. I think that was being said at the time.

Flip side is, I still do not know how he has not been punished more for the original allegations. He committed accounting fraud for a publicly traded company. The SEC has nailed executives for much less.

And finally - you’ve got hundreds of millions, you can pretty much buy willing high end hookers, or gold diggers (higher end hookers). Why do you ever need to go this route? I never get that. Power absolutely corrupts and morally bankrupts people……. The last question is easiest to answer. It’s a complete non-sequitar proved wrong hundreds of times by every other powerful person from Weinstein to Cosby. Hookers are not everyone’s thing. Vince was into power plays, completely consistent with his character and everything we know about him. He didn’t just want to bang a hot chick. He wanted to mentally and physically dominate a weaker person. I 100% believed he was into that long before this scandal. Try that with a high-end hooker and you might wind up with a bullet in your head even if you’re Vince. I can’t explain the germaphobe part, and can’t say I heard a lot about that. I know he has strange ideas about yawning and coughing being personal weakness. I don’t know how that translates to this. He’s just a weird dude. The spelling and grammar thing is bizarre, but I get texts from highly educated and powerful executives and CEOs every day, and some of it is shameful. Some people don’t care about being coherent in text and consider it informal communication even when you’d never send that to the same person in an email. Also, if may be voice text. That’s my thought. They’re so “busy” they don’t have time to write, they do voice and it comes across like you’re a retard. I’ve had CEOs flag to me that if I get a text that makes them sound like they have brain damage, don’t judge because it’s voice text. I’ve come to accept it. Last week, I got something similar from a former CEO of a Fortune 500 company (who was once a guest judge on “The Apprentice”). I’m old school and would never send something like that to anyone, not business and not personal, but it seems like it’s normal behavior now. |

On the germaphobe thing I remember Cornette and maybe Prichard talking about Vince being disgusted when someone would sneeze or of someone was sick. I don't know anything else beyond that.
There's also the stories about him only using bottles of water , ketchup, etc that he's just opened himself. I assume he's afalraid of being poisoned?
As for why he didn't get hookers, Srossi has it. Certain people (men,mainly) just want more and more things they haven't had. So Vince has hookers and instead he wants a regular woman to degrade herself and to completely control and make shit of.
This behaviour is not unique to Vince. I don't understand it but it's real and not uncommon.
