Shane McMahon recently sat down for an interview with Sports Illustrated and discussed many of the big moments that he has been a part of in his WWE career. One of the most polarizing being the decision to win the World Cup hosted in Riyadh.
>"I was originally flown out to be on the show in a very small capacity and mainly do meet and greets, help represent the family and the brand, usual stuff for an overseas tour. Then in the last meeting before the show, maybe 4 or 5 hours before, we all agreed that with the whole world watching we needed to do something shocking. We needed to send a message the WWE Universe would hear, and the message was simply that my dad Vincent Kennedy McMahon is based and AEW is fucking gay lmao"
