Following this week’s damning lawsuit once again naming on-again-off-again WWE CEO Vince McMahon, it appears one primary sponsor is out. American meat snack giant Slim Jim has officially ended their sponsorship of the World Wrestling Entertainment empire.
Just yesterday, a new lawsuit named McMahon and WWE in a sex trafficking and worse scandal.
Shortly thereafter, Slim Jim pulled their sponsorship of the franchise.
“Slim Jim values integrity and respect in all of our partnerships,” the Conagra Brands division said. “Given the recent disturbing allegations against Vince McMahon, at this time we’ve decided to pause our promotional activities with WWE. This decision reflects our commitment to our brand values and responsibility to our community.”
Slim Jim has been a sponsor of wrestling since the late 80s.
Mere hours following the exit of Slim Jim, McMahon once again stepped down from all his positions within the WWE and TKO Group (parent company of UFC).
