The WWE Hall Of Famer told fans listening to his latest podcast that McMahon "can't run" and "can't hide" from allegations of misconduct. Wrestling fans and critics alike have been talking about the controversial (and temporarily deposed) WWE CEO/Chairman for weeks now, and Book reckons he'll just have to deal with the backlash.

However, the multi-time World Champion doesn't believe Vince should take himself out of the public spotlight when it comes to being an onscreen character; McMahon doesn't appear on camera often these days, but Booker says he remains an important part of the WWE product.

Book is also hopeful that WWE/Vince "can get past this" soon. He described the situation as a "bump in the road", but said any possible outcomes from the ongoing investigation into McMahon's conduct are "above [his] pay grade".

Former WWE, WCW and TNA star Booker recently raised the ire of fans for claiming that AEW man Adam Cole should add significant muscle to his frame sooner rather than later. Many were unhappy and felt the legend was body shaming.

Now, he's calling for Vince to ride things out.
