Why Did Triple H and Stephanie McMahon Join WWE’s Board of Directors?

March 4, 2015 | Posted by Jeffrey Harris

The Wrestling Observer has an update on WWE executives Triple H and Stephanie McMahon joining the WWE Board of Directors. The move was reportedly made to help with the eventual transition for when the two will take over the company from Vince McMahon.

In addition, since WWE is publicly traded, there was a perception that Wall Street would not accept a former wrestler who has limited business experience as the new CEO of WWE. Triple H taking the position will help get him the experience needed for him to be groomed for that eventual role.
