Could Brock Lesnar work for Vince McMahon's new promotion?

There is no new Vince McMahon promotion.  He's setting up an entertainment company.  Not a wrestling promotion.  They want to fund and produce film and television, possibly podcast content, we are told.  It's not Vince rising up with a new wrestling company.

You wrote this new Vince thing wouldn't go forward unless he's past his legal issues?  The Grant lawsuits?

Yes, but I don't believe the Grant lawsuit is the primary concern here.  Remember the Janel Grant lawsuit has been paused as there is another government investigation into McMahon.  If that moves forward with an indictment, he's likely not going to launch the company officially.  The Grant lawsuit (there is only one) would be a civil matter and I don't know if that would have any bearing.  It was the criminal matter that appeared to be what would take precedence.

Do we know when this would launch?

In a perfect world, early 2025, but I am sure that timeline is written in pencil.

Why is Vince McMahon not taking his money and just going home?

When has Vince McMahon ever done anything that would seem the easy, logical plan?

Does McMahon still own any WWE stock and would that prevent him from running this new company?

He owns a very small percentage - somewhere in the area of 4-6% I believe.  There would not be anything preventing him from funding the new venture.

How funny would it be if Vince bought Titan Tower and used it as his HQ?

I don't believe that's the plan.  We have heard they are looking at basing this out of Los Angeles, possibly Santa Monica.

Who's going to work with Vince McMahon at this point?

That is the million dollar question.  There's a lot of toxicity around him and his WWE exit, for obvious reasons.  That said, in Hollywood and elsewhere, lots of people want to ge their projects off the ground,  So, we'll see.  That's a world where people fail upwards and McMahon has a lot of money to invest if he decides to do so.
