Not too long ago, a former WWE employee named Janel Grant filed a s*x trafficking lawsuit against Vince McMahon and WWE. The lawsuit claimed Grant was abused and s*xually exploited by McMahon. This ultimately resulted in Vince resigning from WWE’s parent company, TKO, in January 2024.
Also, as a result of the lawsuit, fans began taking shots at McMahon. Thus, while Vince has been getting all the hate, his son, Shane McMahon, has been living a good life.

Focusing on the relationship between Shane McMahon and Vince McMahon
Fans have often expressed the desire to know about the relationship between Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon. In that regard, it is to be noted that their relationship might not be smooth.
As the son of Vince, Shane established himself as a prominent figure in WWE. He equally managed his on-screen and behind-the-scenes roles. But, in pursuit of other ventures, Shane resigned from WWE in 2009. But he later made a return to the Stamford-based promotion in 2016.
During his return, he confronted his father and accused him of prioritizing his sister over him. Later, while appearing for an interview with Mick Foley, Shane opened up about his departure from WWE. He said, “I think with any parent and child relationship, it’s tough. Especially with the older guard allowing the new guard to flesh those ideas out and try them, go for it. Because they’re so guarded against it.”
Shane continued, “You know, the WWE defines my father. And I wasn’t going to allow a deteriorating business relationship to affect our personal lives, and that’s exactly what was happening. So I decided, ‘You know what? I’m not going to do this. I love him too much and I decided to leave.”
Thus, while there might be conflicts between the father-son duo, Shane stated that he loves his father way too much. It now remains to be seen if more details about Vince and Shane’s relationship will come into the spotlight going forward. Till then, fans will look forward to knowing more about Shane and Vince’s personal and professional lives.
