This weekend will represent the second WrestleMania since WWE founder and former chairman Vince McMahon had to leave the company again amid allegations of sex trafficking and sexual assault that were levied against him in a lawsuit by a former female employee.
But McMahon's decades-long control and role over pro wrestling's biggest brand still looms large as its biggest event of the year approaches.
While many current WWE superstars have chosen to distance themselves from McMahon in the aftermath of his WWE departure, John Cena is taking the opposite approach ahead of his main event match with Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE championship on Sunday during night two of WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
