Former WWE Superstar Rene Dupree believes Mandy Rose's firing from WWE is connected to the current Vince McMahon situation.
Earlier this year, Vince McMahon stepped down as Chairman and CEO of WWE amid allegations of misconduct. McMahon is reportedly facing fresh demands from two victims who have accused him of sexual abuse. Recent reports have also suggested that the former Chairman is considering returning to the company.
Meanwhile, the Stamford-based company fired Mandy Rose from her contract last week because of the content she posted on her FanTime page. Many fans have since been questioning the company's decision.
On his podcast Cafe de Rene, Dupree stated that Mandy Rose's firing is connected to Vince McMahon's situation.

"What happened like the morning or the day that those videos were leaked and she got fired? [Was that the day where we started hearing rumors of Vince coming back or was that the day where these fresh two allegations came out?] Bingo. (...) Shawn seeing that [Mandy's leaked content], because trust me, if they're being sued for nearly $12 million after all the settlements are made public that he already made and then another girl is accusing him of sexual assault in California, right? You think they don't wanna distance themselves from any type of bad publicity of any type of sexual behavior?" he said. [0:03 - 1:31]
