WWE VP of public relations departs after 25 years


After 25 years, WWE vice president of public relations Adam Hopkins is leaving the company.
Hopkins was a consistent voice on the intros for WWE NXT media calls with Paul “Triple H” Levesque and later Shawn Michaels, in addition to helping set up interviews with talents or providing a company comment on various stories.
It’s unknown what the reason for his departure is, but PWInsider reported Tuesday that vice president of communications Stefanie Fiondella is also gone after departing last week. She was first with WWE from 2014 through 2019 before returning in April 2021.
A graduate of the New York Institute of Technology, Hopkins started with the company in September 1997 as a fan services coordinator. He eventually moved into public relations as a coordinator for four years before being promoted to a manager in February 2004.
After five years as a senior manager of public relations and corporate communication, he spent seven years as senior director before spending the last year as vice president.
Former WWE Champion Big E responded to a Sean Ross Sapp tweet with the following:
A true professional and a great human. Really going to miss A Hop.
