6. Vince McMahon Changing WWE Draft Plans Due To Roman Reigns’ Suspension?
Word is that Vince McMahon is very upset with Roman Reigns failing the WWE Wellness Policy and this might have an effect on his push. While Reigns will still remain a top WWE star, he is no longer expected to be pushed as THE #1 Superstar of WWE.
Also, Reigns’ suspension is expected to make some changes in the WWE Draft plans as he was scheduled to be the #1 Draft pick before his suspension.
Below is a video of Seth Rollins mocking Roman Reigns during a WWE Live Event match:
Speaking of the Draft, Stephanie McMahon revealed (during a recent interview with the Wrestling Compadres Podcast) since when Vince McMahon has been planning the Brand Extension:
“It’s something that Vince had planned on for quite some time, but we hadn’t fully developed it until it got closer to SmackDown going live. It’s been in the works for a little while now. But the Shane storyline certainly gives us a great storyline platform to promote it.”
5. Shane McMahon Making Very Less Appearances On WWE TV After The Draft?
Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer is reporting that Shane McMahon will be making very less appearanes on WWE programming after the Draft. Dave notes that Shane has been telling his friends he doesn’t no for how long he’ll stay on TV.
This might be the possible reason behind Vince naming Shane & Stephanie as Commissioners, so they won’t have to make regular appearances. General Managers will be on weekly shows instead of them.
