The story written by Alex Weprin notes that TKO CEO Ari Emanuel and TKO COO Mark Shapiro called McMahon after the Janel Grant lawsuit was filed and told him it would be in the best interest of the company to resign, which McMahon did that same night. Read the full story at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/business\/business-news\/vince-mcmahon-wwe-tko-exit-1235817722\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HollywoodReporter.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s POV:<\/strong><\/span> The story goes into Slim Jim temporarily suspending their sponsorship deal only to jump back onboard once McMahon resigned. It also notes that TKO officials were in contact with their media rights partners regarding the situation, and adds that the Netflix deal could have been put in jeopardy had the lawsuit been filed earlier.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-2584793793\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":137390,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4],"tags":[4839,5022,4840,56,101],"class_list":["post-145395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-newsticker","category-wwe_news","tag-ari-emanuel","tag-mark-shapiro","tag-tko","tag-vince-mcmahon","tag-wwe"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
