Linda McMahon, a Republican, has announced today that she is resigning because she wants to contest for Senate in her home state of Connecticut. Linda is the chief executive officer of World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. and will fight Democrat, Christopher Dodd for the seat in the upcoming 2010 elections.
As Losangeles Times Reported:-
Although not nearly as flamboyant as her husband — WWE Chairman and ringmaster Vince McMahon — Linda McMahon is considered the brains behind the brawn. She has been CEO of WWE since 1997 and is respected on Wall Street. She and her husband have been focusing on making over WWE from a raunch-fest to more family-friendly entertainment, albeit a family that likes to throw each other around a ring and talk in double entendres (for more on how the WWE has been repositioning itself, read our Aug. 24 story). Whether the move toward kinder, gentler wrestling was in part motivated by her political aspirations remains to be seen, but it probably won’t hurt.
Vince will most probably occupy Linda’s position so no troubles fore WWE at least for the moment.
