Is it possible that Linda McMahon could take control of WWE when Vince's time at the top of the company is over? Absolutely. Is it likely? Absolutely not.

Linda is still a minority owner of WWE as it stands, but she formally resigned from her CEO position in 2009 in order to focus on her political career. That initial venture into politics didn't go particularly well, with certain past WWE controversies coming back to bite her.

Fortunately for Linda, 2017 would see Donald Trump hand her the position of Administrator of the Small Business Administration - a gig she kept until April 2019 - and these days she focuses the majority of her attention on her role as the chairwoman of the pro-Trump group, America First Action.

Given her current work and the fact that she herself is only three years younger than Vince, it would seem highly doubtful that Linda McMahon would be the one to eventually takeover from her husband of 55 years once the time finally does come for Vinny Mac to give up control of WWE.
