As of tomorrow, I am taking a leave of absence from the majority of my responsibilities at WWE. WWE is a lifelong legacy for me and I look forward to returning to the company that I love after taking this time to focus on my family.
Until the conclusion of the investigation into recent allegations, I am honored to assume the role of interim Chairwoman & CEO. I love
@WWE
and all it continues to do to entertain billions around the world.
In what has already been a tough week for our
@WWE
family, today we lost our 1st ever employee and WWE Hall of Famer,
@howardfinkel
. Howard’s voice is iconic & recognized by generations of fans. He will be missed.
#RIPHowardFinkel
Thank you for everything. ❤️🙏❤️
Last week my 93 yr old grandmother passed peacefully, surrounded by people who love her. One of the last things she said to me was, “Let there be love”. Love is what heals us all. To anyone who is hurting or struggling, I send my love to you.
#RIPMima
Thank you for everything. ❤️

said to let him know if anyone tries to make you leave early this time! They’ll have a whole locker room to deal with!
I have never had more fun than I had at wrestlemania years ago. And I *really* did not want to go. I had to be pried from my seat to leave early. Still mad about it.

Gene Okerlund was an incredibly rare talent. He made everything and everyone better.
#ThankYouMeanGene
for all the incredible memories. Our condolences to his family and loved ones.
A voice and sound track to an entire era of our industry. He was the star of some of
@WWE
’s most memorable segments. “Mean Gene” was beloved by all who got to work with him. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time.
Mental health is just as, if not more important than physical health. We should not be ashamed or embarrassed to ask for help, we need each other to get through the darkest times.

From growing up with Andre and Timmy, to getting to work with him as a referee, my life is better for having known Tim White.

I will always love you.

I love and support my Black friends and colleagues. To everyone who has ever felt the impact and fear of racial injustice, I will use my voice for you.
My grandmother turned 93 a couple of weeks ago. She was surrounded by her daughter, her grandchildren, and all 6 great-grandchildren. 4 generations of strong, independent girls and women who never take no for an answer. Happy
