Bruce Prichard on Vince McMahon allegations: ‘I’m not involved’

Bruce Prichard says he can’t comment on the Vince McMahon allegations.

On his podcast Something to Wrestle, Prichard responded to the Vince McMahon allegations by saying he himself is not involved with the ongoing investigations, and can’t comment on the investigation itself.

“As far as lawsuits and things of that nature, I’m not at liberty to discuss any legal matter with the company whatsoever,” he said. “So to that, there’s nothing that I can say, so there can’t be a response from a legal standpoint…I’m not involved. I’m not being sued, I’m not accused of anything. It’s a legal matter…and sometimes it’s as simple as for those that believe, an explanation is needed and for those that don’t, no explanation will do. That’s kind of where we are, let the rest of it sit in the hands of the fine legal system we have here in the United States of America.”

McMahon resigned from TKO and WWE last month after a lawsuit was filed by a former employee who accused McMahon of sexual assault and sex trafficking. Additionally, McMahon is currently under federal investigation.

Prichard returned to WWE in 2019 as part of the creative team, and soon became a senior vice president. He took over the role of executive director of SmackDown later that year, and the following year was named executive director of both SmackDown and Raw.
