Here's something else to know about Linda McMahon:

"For years, WWE employees lured underaged boys—known as “Ring Boys”—to assist with WWE’s wrestling events. These boys, many from vulnerable backgrounds, were groomed, exploited, and sexually abused by WWE’s ringside announcer, Melvin Phillips Jr., and another WWE executive.

The abuse occurred not only at wrestling venues, but also in hotels used in connection with WWE’s events, often in plain sight of WWE executives and wrestlers. Despite widespread knowledge of Phillips’s predatory behavior, WWE leadership—including Vince and Linda McMahon—failed to properly intervene or prevent the abuse, which allowed it to continue."
