The Rock Seen With Vince McMahon After TKO Appointment
The Rock has been seen with Vince McMahon in public after the WWE icon was appointed to the Board of Directors of TKO.
Endeavor completed its takeover of WWE in September 2023, forming the TKO Group as the parent company to both the sports entertainment giant as well as the UFC.
Now The Rock has been appointed to TKO’s Board of Directors. It comes on the same day that WWE announced a huge ten-year deal with Netflix as questions over the future of Raw get their answer.
The New York Stock Exchange released a video of Endeavor, TKO, and WWE executives with The Rock while he rang the bell to open the day’s trading. Alongside The Rock were both Vince McMahon – now without moustache – and Triple H.

Vince McMahon Documentary Coming Soon
A documentary on the life of Vince McMahon has been in the works since 2020 and will provide an insight into the life of one of pro wrestling’s most influential figures. Recently, the Executive Producer of the documentary, Bill Simmons, added more intrigue to proceedings when he revealed that Vince McMahon will have no say in the final cut. Simmons also noted that he believed it would be released in the first part of 2024 and it looks like that will be the case.
It is an interesting time for WWE’s relationship with the streaming giant as WWE and Netflix have signed a $5 billion deal for Raw.
