Shane, Vince McMahon Address WWE Buyback Rumors

Shane McMahon recently discussed his meeting with AEW's Tony Khan, expressing goodwill toward the rival promotion and openness to future wrestling collaborations, while reiterating his strong ties to WWE. He also addressed persistent rumors about Vince McMahon seeking to buy back WWE from TKO Group Holdings, acknowledging Vince's reduced stake but neither confirming nor denying the speculation. Vince McMahon has launched a new company, 14TH & I, with potential interests in sports and entertainment, but WWE is reportedly not for sale and TKO remains unlikely to sell following past controversies and legal issues. Wrestling insiders have speculated about possible external partnerships for Vince, but there is no concrete evidence of an imminent takeover. WWE remains under the leadership of Triple H and TKO, highlighted by successful initiatives such as the Netflix deal. Major financial, legal, and internal obstacles continue to make a Vince McMahon return to WWE ownership highly improbable.
