WWE: Why did Vince McMahon leave Saudi Arabia before other WWE staff?
Vince McMahon was unaffected by the Riyadh flight delay since he left before everyone else in his private jet. Know more about the incident and the reason
WWE CEO Vince McMahon has faced heavy backlash and negativity from WWE fans for leaving Saudi Arabia before everyone else. WWE put down a massive show in the recently-concluded Crown Jewel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia but what happened aftermath was really unfortunate. WWE Superstars and WWE employees were forced to stick in a flight delay at Riyadh and it was about to hamper the upcoming SmackDown Night after Crown Jewel. However, the boss Vince McMahon was in safe hands and he was fortunate enough to leave the country before anyone else.
WWE: Why did Vince McMahon leave?
The WWE CEO reportedly owns a private jet and it acted as his saviour after the recent Crown Jewel in Riyadh. Vince McMahon reportedly left Riyadh with support staff in his private jet just after the PPV ended, while other WWE Superstars and employees were left stranded in Riyadh due to clearance issues from government. According to reports, a lot of WWE Superstars were irked by McMahon's move but why did McMahon do that?
According to WWE commentator and employee Corey Graves, it is not unusual that Vince McMahon left Riyadh before everyone else. As soon as the final bell rings and as soon as it is made sure that all of the talent is okay, McMahon boards his private jet and goes home or to the next city because he is busy running WWE and has got a lot of responsibility on his shoulders. It was really unfortunate that WWE Superstars got stuck in Riyadh after Crown Jewel but it was not unusual that McMahon left the country before everyone, as per Corey Graves. As per Graves, only a few big Superstars like Brock Lesnar and Tyson Fury shared the similar fortune with Vince but the rest of them had to face problems.
