WWE Talent ‘Not Convinced Vince McMahon Can Stay Away’

WWE

Vince McMahon’s sudden retirement from WWE came as a shock to both fans and wrestlers last night, with the former WWE CEO retiring from all duties, including creative.

The announcement came as such a shock as many expected Vince McMahon to never retire, including him showing such restraint following the Wall Street Journal articles against him became public.

Fightful Select (subscription required) has heard from many WWE talent after the news broke, with one talent saying that ‘it shouldn’t have taken a scandal for a shakeup, which made a lot of people wonder who is next to go, especially those within Vince’s inner circle.’ Most talent that Fightful spoke to believe that Kevin Dunn will likely leave the company or be forced out.

Another talent said that they are ‘not banking on anything being permanent. Triple H was phased out, Stephanie was phased out, Bruce left the company for a decade, Johnny has been in and out, and none of them have the power Vince does. I’m not convinced that he can actually stay away, especially if he feels the heat has died down.’
