Vince McMahon is selling the rest of his TKO stock.
In a new SEC filing, it was noted that the disgraced former WWE Chairman has registered his remaining 8,021,405 shares of TKO stock for sale. Additionally, WWE President Nick Khan has registered 234,424 shares for sale and TKO Board member Steve Koonin registered 3,508 shares for sale.
It is to be noted that registering the shares for sale does not mean that they’ve been sold just yet. If all of the shares wind up being sold, Vince McMahon would be completely out of WWE in terms of any ownership stake.
The shares amount to about 4.7% of total TKO shares.
