“It’s time to move on,” Former WWE personality weighs in on the heinous allegations against Vince McMahon

Former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon recently resigned from his position following accusations of sexual harassment and trafficking. A former WWE employee, Janel Grant, filed a lawsuit against McMahon. Many superstars and officials gave their opinions on this incident, and now veteran Jim Ross has also given his final opinion on it. 

Good Ol’ JR spoke on the Grilling JR podcast and described this event as very unfortunate and embarrassing. He further added that this incident affected a lot of innocent people, and it shouldn’t have happened. Jim stated that they all should move on from this so the affected people can finally find some peace and rest. 

Vince recently sold another $411 million worth of shares of his TKO stock. As per Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics, the former chairman still possesses 9% of TKO stock or 15 million shares. Due to the accusations, McMahon was forced to step down from all his roles as the threat of the company’s sponsors pulling out loomed large. 

I’m tired of it. It’s embarrassing in a lot of ways that it’s happened this way. It’s affected a lot of innocent people. That’s my take on it. It’s time to move on. It’s time to move on and cause some rest and peace for some people and it’s time to move on in my opinion.

Vince reacted to the allegations made against him by denying them all and saying he would vigorously defend himself. The 78-year-old is slowly finding himself getting deep into the controversies; only time will tell what will be the next chapter in this story.

The 72-year-old talked about the match on the Grilling JR podcast and praised both superstars by recognizing them as special talents. Although he admitted that he didn’t think the match would be that good, it certainly exceeded his expectations. The Good Ol’ JR assured that they would be even better as they evolved and matured. 

"It was spectacular, it was better than I envisioned it might be. Ospreay is a special talent. AEW fans have some great things to look forward to regarding Ospreay and Takeshita. Both of them are young and still evolving and getting better every time out."
