However, the husband and wife duo has faced controversy in recent years.

Are Linda & Vince Still in the WWE?
Vince and Linda began their trek to wrestling fame in the early 1980s.
Linda formally stepped down from her role as CEO of the WWE in 2009 when she embarked on her Senate campaign. However, she still maintains a small portion of her shares from the company.
Vince briefly stepped down from the WWE in 2022. In January 2024, however, he permanently resigned as TKO’s executive chairman and from the board of directors after he was sued for alleged sex trafficking and sexual assault, per ESPN.
Former WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit against Vince, claiming that he forced her to engage in sexual acts with him in order to keep her position with the company. She further alleged that Vince showed pornographic content of her to other men. Vince denied the allegations.
According to a statement obtained by ESPN, Vince claimed that Janel’s lawsuit was “replete with lies, obscene made-up instances that never occurred, and is a vindictive distortion of the truth” and added that he will “vigorously defend [himself] against these baseless accusations.”
