WWE is part of TKO Group Holdings, so the board most readers mean is TKO’s board—not a separate board for a standalone publicly traded WWE. TKO’s 12 directors were elected at its June 10, 2026 annual meeting for terms through the 2027 annual meeting.

Who is on the board associated with WWE?

TKO Group Holdings’ 12 directors are:

  • Ariel Emanuel, Executive Chair and CEO of TKO
  • Mark Shapiro, President and COO of TKO
  • Peter C.B. Bynoe
  • Egon P. Durban
  • Dwayne Johnson, also known as The Rock
  • Bradley A. Keywell
  • Nick Khan, President of WWE
  • Steven R. Koonin, Lead Independent Director
  • Jonathan A. Kraft
  • Sonya E. Medina
  • Nancy R. Tellem
  • Carrie Wheeler

TKO’s 2026 proxy statement named these 12 nominees, and the company’s June 12, 2026 Form 8-K reported that all 12 were elected. Their terms run through TKO’s 2027 annual meeting. TKO 2026 proxy statement; TKO Form 8-K, June 12, 2026.

Does WWE have its own board?

WWE is a wholly owned subsidiary within TKO’s corporate structure. TKO’s 2026 proxy describes World Wrestling Entertainment, LLC as a direct wholly owned subsidiary following the 2023 combination and says TKO Group Holdings is the sole managing member of WWE LLC. Accordingly, the 12 names above are TKO’s board—the board of WWE’s parent company—not a separately listed WWE board. TKO 2026 proxy statement.

Is The Rock on WWE’s board?

Dwayne Johnson, known as The Rock, is one of TKO’s 12 directors. Because WWE is part of TKO, he is on the board associated with WWE in that parent-company sense; the filings identify him as a TKO director, not as a member of a separate WWE board. TKO 2026 proxy statement.

Which directors have WWE and TKO leadership roles?

Nick Khan is the listed director who is also President of WWE. Ariel Emanuel is TKO’s Executive Chair and CEO, Mark Shapiro is TKO’s President and COO, and Steven R. Koonin is its Lead Independent Director. WWE’s Chief Content Officer, Paul Levesque, is not among the 12 directors named in the 2026 proxy. A corporate operating title and a board seat are distinct roles. TKO 2026 proxy statement; WWE corporate leadership overview.

Why older board lists may use different labels

Earlier coverage may describe certain directors as “WWE designees” or “Endeavor designees.” Those descriptions refer to a prior governance arrangement: TKO’s 2026 proxy says the Governance Agreement’s director designation rights expired on December 31, 2025, and the agreement terminated on January 1, 2026, except for provisions that survived. The proxy says TKO’s board now has authority to designate nominees for all director positions or fill vacancies. For a current list, use the elected TKO directors rather than carrying forward the expired designation structure. TKO 2026 proxy statement.
