Vince McMahon has every intention to continue forward in the business world, which may explain his conduct regarding Janel Grant's lawsuit.

McMahon's only business-adjacent actions since his WWE exit in January 2024 have seen the 78-year-old unload stock in TKO Group Holdings. More recently, McMahon filed a motion in which he made a series of claims against Grant that she wishes to see struck from the record. McMahon's legal team have called Grant's efforts to strike the claims the "height of hypocrisy."

On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed McMahon's claims, in which he states that Grant was a willing participant in their relationship.

"They need to rehabilitate his image enough to where he can do business as a businessman because that's what he wants to do. Whether it's wrestling, which apparently from what I'm told it's not wrestling, but he absolutely wants to do this."

If McMahon is able to re-establish himself in the business world post-Grant, it's not expected to be as part of WWE. Not only has McMahon listed all his TKO stock for sale, but there is said to be nobody left defending him in the company.

It was added that McMahon hopes to avoid being compared to disgraced movie producer Harvey Weinstein. AEW President Tony Khan recently claimed that WWE was the Weinstein of wrestling while AEW is the Pepsi of the industry.

"He wants to not have this name, he doesn't want to be Harvey Weinstein. The only way he can do that is to basically make it look like and portray it as this crazy, lying woman. 'I absolutely had an affair with her, but all that stuff that she said, every single bit of it, is not true.'"

WWE and John Laurinaitis, who are also named as defendants have sided with McMahon in his efforts to compel arbitration. McMahon is being represented in proceedings by Kasowitz Benson Torres. Ironically, the firm recently settled a lawsuit against WWE that saw Major League Wrestling paid $20 million.

Such a shame McMahon's wrestling industry career has ended this way. It will take years until he may be appreciated for what he has done, if ever at all.
