WWE's Vince McMahon served with subpoena by federal agents

Federal law enforcement agents executed a search warrant and served a federal grand jury subpoena to WWE executive chairman Vince McMahon last month, according to a regulatory filing.

McMahon is also taking medical leave from the sports entertainment company following major spinal surgery nearly two weeks ago, CEO Nick Khan anounced Wednesday. The duration of his leave was not specified.

WWE said in the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that while government investigations into McMahon remain ongoing, no charges have been brought in them.

The company said it has received voluntary and compulsory legal demands for documents, including from federal law enforcement and regulatory agencies, concerning the investigation and related subject matters.
