Vince McMahon's net worth has dramatically increased since last year, with 2022 seeing him step away from WWE

Vince McMahon's net worth, according to Forbes, has increased dramatically over the last 12 months.

The last year has been incredibly eventful for Vince McMahon, with the 77-year-old retiring from WWE last summer, before returning just this month.

Despite the huge changes to his professional life, it has now been claimed that Vince's net worth has increased by a frankly insane amount.

What is Vince McMahon's net worth?

Vince is one of the richest people on the planet, there's no denying that, but now fans know just how much the Executive Chairman is actually worth.

According to Forbes, as of January 23, McMahon's net worth stood at $3 billion, leaving him at #1016 on their real-time list of billionaires, via WrestleTalk.

That's a pretty big jump from Vince, who was ranked #1397 on last year's list, with a net worth of $2.2 billion.

So, the publication is reporting that Vince's net worth has increased by $800 million over the last 12 months, which is pretty impressive.

McMahon is now quite comfortably ranked at #1 with regards to net worth out of people working for WWE right now, which you can find a more detailed list of by clicking here.

Vince McMahon has retired from WWE

Is Vince McMahon running WWE again?

As noted, Vince has returned to WWE, but the 77-year-old does not have the same responsibilities he did prior to his retirement during the summer of last year.

McMahon is Executive Chairman once again, but his role involves only ensuring WWE is sold, as well as handling any media rights negotiations, with the current deals expiring next summer.

Nick Khan, following Stephanie McMahon's resignation, now stands as WWE's sole CEO, and is responsible for all of the other big decisions that need to be made.

Triple H was appointed as WWE's Chief Content Officer in July 2022, and he still holds that position to this day, meaning anything fans see on Raw or SmackDown has gone through him.

Some worried that Vince would take over as Head of Creative once again following his return, leaving Triple H without a job, but so far that hasn't happened as of yet.
