Belief that Vince McMahon’s creative influence in WWE is “likely to grow in the coming weeks”

As previously noted, Vince McMahon was believed to have made late changes to the June 23rd 2023 edition of WWE Smackdown.

While McMahon was reportedly not in Georgia for June 26th 2023 edition of WWE RAW, PWInsider.com was told that a lot of McMahon’s “fingerprints” would be on the show. Mike Johnson of PWInsider stated the following…

“While McMahon has been remotely influencing WWE programming since Wrestlemania 39, the belief among some we’ve spoken to is that influence is likely to grow in the coming weeks and months as the Endeavor acquisition becomes a reality.”

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com said the following about McMahon’s creative influence…

“Vince has taken more and more interest in this. Today [RAW] was another example of that. This was Vince McMahon’s show.”

Meltzer also stated the following…

“The thing is, is that, you know, it’s Vince, right, and you can’t, like, you can’t say anything, you know, that’s what somebody brought up to me was like, if you’re a writer, you can’t say anything to Vince. If you’re, even if you’re Paul Levesque [Triple H], you can’t say anything to Vince because it’s like, you’re, you’re f**ked if you say anything to Vince. So you can’t say anything.

They’re trying to figure out a way to have him not do this [make late changes to the shows]. And like, one person noted me, like, if you, it would be a lot better if like you did it the day before or two days before, but he’s doing it like the day of the show.” (quotes courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
