McMahon, who is also the co-owner of the XFL football league, announced his resignation in a statement on Friday night.

“Out of respect for the WWE Universe, the extraordinary TKO business and its board members and shareholders, partners and constituents, and all of the employees and Superstars who helped make WWE into the global leader, it is today, I have decided to resign from my executive chairmanship and the TKO board of directors, effective immediately.

“I stand by my prior statement that Ms. Grant’s lawsuit is replete with lies, obscene made-up instances that never occurred, and is a vindictive distortion of the truth. I intend to vigorously defend myself against these baseless accusations and look forward to clearing my name.”

The lawsuit against McMahon is the latest in a series of scandals and controversies that have plagued the WWE and TKO in recent years, including allegations of racism, sexism, homophobia, bullying, corruption, and unsafe working conditions. The WWE and TKO have also faced financial losses, legal battles, declining ratings and popularity.
