Vince McMahon agreed to pay $1.7 million to settle Securities and Exchange Commission charges over settlements he made on behalf of himself and World Wrestling Entertainment without properly disclosing them to the company’s board of directors,

"In the end, there was never anything more to this than minor accounting errors," McMahon says in a statement.

Vince McMahon has settled with the SEC. In 2022, The Wall Street Journal reported that McMahon paid $12 million to suppress alleged sexual misconduct and infidelity over 16 years. WWE announced in November 2022 that their investigation into this alleged misconduct was complete.
