Just six days into the new year, and we already have what will end up as one of the biggest stories of 2023.
Vince McMahon is back in WWE, returning to the board of directors yesterday (January 6), alongside George Barrios and Michelle Wilson.
McMahon returned to the company to oversee future television rights deals and an eventual sale of the company.
With this being Vince McMahon, fans have questioned whether or not his return would result in him regaining more control of the company’s on-screen product.
However, day to day operations in WWE will remain unchanged, as WWE told their employees in an interview last night.
Fightful Select (subscription required) has provided backstage updates on last night’s SmackDown show, and what, if any, involvement McMahon had on the show.
Per the report, Vince McMahon was not present at last night’s show following his return to the company.
One person who was backstage at last night’s show was William Regal, who has now officially returned to WWE after departing AEW at the end of last year.
