Update on Vince McMahon Possibly Returning to WWE - Reports

There is an update on Vince McMahon possibly returning to WWE. The former CEO of the sports entertainment giant hasn't been associated with promotion since January 2024, when he resigned from the board after being named in the Janel Grant lawsuit.

WWE has also kept its distance from its former boss, but there has been speculation about him returning for John Cena's farewell match. Cena will wrestle in his last WWE match at Saturday Night's Main Event, and there have been rumors swirling that Vince McMahon and U.S. President Donald Trump could be in attendance for the show in Washington, D.C.

PWInsider Elite has shared an update on the situation. According to the outlet, sources within WWE haven't heard of any plans regarding Vince making an appearance on the show on Saturday. The report mentioned that a source noted they would expect Linda McMahon to be present before Vince, but when it comes to the former WWE owner, "you never know with him."

As far as Donald Trump being in attendance for the 17-time World Champion's farewell, it was mentioned that nobody in the promotion confirmed that he would be present. However, given that the show will be held in D.C., other names from US politics are expected to be in attendance.
