The investigation involves allegations that Vince had a romantic relationship with an employee and subsequently paid her millions in hush money.

"I cannot put into words how proud I am to have led what I consider to be the greatest company in the world, working alongside a remarkable leadership team and one of the strongest executives I have known in my Co-CEO, Nick Khan...WWE is in such a strong position that I have decided to return to my leave and take it one step further with my official resignation."
