Vince McMahon Retires From WWE

It took me a bit to really process this, but he’s gone. It’s hard to believe this but he’s actually gone. It is WAY too early to know what this is going to mean for WWE, but make no mistake about it: this is a game changer for the company, as it is the first time that Vince has not been at the helm. Yes he has fallen off a lot and isn’t what he used to be and yes this was going to happen one day. That being said, this is completely uncharted territory and now things are going to change, at least in some ways. HHH being back in charge of talent is interesting and having Stephanie/Nick Khan running things is as well, but I’m looking to see what happens in the coming months, because this is ALL new stuff.
Do you personally believe Vince is gone for good, or do you think he will still be involved on some level with the company?
Oh he will be in some way. Stephanie’s inheritance might depend on it.
Do you think that creatively we will see the difference soon? I say that not having caught this week’s Smackdown. Also, I find the timing interesting in that a week ago news broke that the WWE was going back to TV-14 for their programs in the near future. Do you think Vince retiring has anything to do with that?
I would wait until after Summerslam for the changes at the earliest.
And I’m not sure on that. I’d think it’s a coincidence though.
