WWE announced on February 25 that the chairman will appear on The Pat McAfee Show the following Thursday. Fans continue to wonder whether this guest appearance from McMahon will lead to a WrestleMania 38 program between the two men.
Pat McAfee could be Vince McMahon's first in-ring opponent at WrestleMania in over 10 years
It's been almost 10 years since Vince McMahon stepped into the ring to face anyone. We last saw him wrestle in an unofficial match against CM Punk on October 8, 2012. McMahon hasn't had a sanctioned match since WrestleMania 26, where he faced Bret Hart in a No Holds Barred Lumberjack match.
Over the past few years, several WWE Superstars have gotten into a scuffle with the chairman of the company, including Roman Reigns, AJ Styles, and Kevin Owens. But none of them have ever challenged McMahon to a match, so if the rumored plans for WrestleMania 38 come to fruition, McAfee will be his first opponent in 10 years.
