Fox Denies Involvement in Vince McMahon’s Alleged New Wrestling Venture

Fox has officially denied reports that it is collaborating with Vince McMahon on a new wrestling promotion. The clarification comes amid speculation about McMahon’s next move following his resignation from WWE in January 2024.

According to The Athletic’s Andrew Marchand, a Fox spokesperson confirmed that the network has no involvement with McMahon in any wrestling-related capacity.

The denial counters speculation that McMahon, who left WWE and its parent company, TKO Group Holdings, might be working on a new venture with Fox as a potential broadcast partner.

McMahon’s resignation came after Janel Grant filed a lawsuit accusing him of sexual misconduct. The lawsuit added to previous controversies, including hush-money payments that had already drawn regulatory scrutiny. While McMahon has remained silent on his future plans, the Fox statement makes it clear that the network is not involved in any such efforts.
