The veteran wrestling tycoon missed a TV recording of “Raw” and is said to be recovering at home following what has been described as a “life-altering” operation
Veteran WWE CEO Vince McMahon is recovering after he underwent major surgery on his spine over the course of several hours.
The 77-year-old went under the knife to fix an unspecified issue with his back and it is believed that the operation was a success. According to American outlet TMZ, the wrestling chief is no longer in the hospital and is now recuperating at home following the surgery.
There is no timetable for McMahon’s recovery at the moment and there has been no suggestion that the surgery will affect his role moving forward.
Those watching “Raw” on Monday night will have noted the absence of the WWE household name, with Bruce Prichard having recently been in charge. WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque also did not attend the TV recording, leaving Prichard to assume the reigns.
