Vince McMahon leaves fans shocked with new look as former WWE boss makes rare public appearance at Super Bowl
DISGRACED former WWE chief Vince McMahon shocked fans as he sported a new look during a rare public appearance at Super Bowl 59.
McMahon, 79, stepped down as CEO and chairman of WWE in June 2022 and was replaced by his daughter Stephanie, before he returned six months later.

A new bombshell federal lawsuit was filed against him which refers to an employee’s time at WWE from 2019 to 2022.
He was ordered to hand over documents regarding allegations of “rape, sex trafficking, sexual assault, commercial sex transaction, harassment or discrimination against past or present WWE employees”.
McMahon sold his remaining WWE shares in April for £588m to formally end his ties to the world-renowned wrestling organisation.
A Netflix documentary has since aired about his controversial career, which McMahon called “distorted”.
But amid his legal controversies, McMahon turned out in New Orleans for the Super Bowl, where the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs.
He appeared to be thinner and was clean-shaven for the first time in around two years.
McMahon was in attendance with his son, Shane, and WWE legend the Undertaker.
Reacting to his new look, one fan said: “Why does he look younger than when I last saw him?”
A second said: “What the hell?”
A third added: “No way.”
The appearance came days after former WWE employee Janel Grant amended her lawsuit against him.
She has accused McMahon of sexually abusing her and trafficking her to other men in the company.
But her updated suit named wrestler Brock Lesnar, whom McMahon allegedly offered to Grant during contract talks, and producer and ex-wrestler Michael Hayes.
McMahon allegedly told Grant to make custom pornographic content for Hayes and his team.
Last week, the Maryland Supreme Court also allowed a lawsuit from five survivors of the “Ring Boy Scandal,” filed last October, to move forward.
It alleges McMahon, his wife Linda, and WWE acted carelessly in allowing the sexual abuse of minors to occur.
