  • It never rains, pours but storms for former World Wrestling Entertainment chairman and chief executive officer Vince McMahon
  • 'Mr McMahon' had to step down earlier this month from these roles after he was accused of paying hush money using WWE funds to cover up an affair with a former employee
  • Now, McMahon has been accused of the more serious act of rape by a former referee as his troubles continue mounting

Vince McMahon is getting deeper into trouble by the day.

Mr McMahon had to step down from his role as the World Wrestling Entertainment chairman and chief executive officer after he and former head of talent relations John Laurinaitis - who also had to vacate his position - allegedly paid an ex employee hush money to keep an affair between her and McMahon quiet.

IOL has since reported that McMahon stands accused by Rita Chatterton - WWE's first-ever female referee - of rape in the 1980s. According to the New York Post, the revelations about McMahon's lurid activities encouraged her to come forward and level her allegations against him.

“I’m sure others will come forward. Because we’re not the only two. There’s not a doubt in my mind about that. As far as wrestling goes, I guess I’m the first in a lot of things … As far as I know, I’m the first to come out with the whole issue of what a scumbag he is.”

Chatterton has thus far refused to go into the details of what allegedly happened.

Former WWE CEO Vince Mcmahon has a history of dodging scandals amid allegations of affair "hush money" payment

Former World Wrestling Entertainment CEO Vince McMahon has had his fair share of dealing with storms involving him at the forefront of the organisation.

As reported by Sports Brief, he and head of talent relations John Laurinaitis stepped down after a WWE board investigation into allegations that the duo conspired to pay $3 million to cover up an affair McMahon had with an ex-employee.

This is not the first time that he has been involved in scandal atop the world of wrestling.
