Shane Douglas isnt buying the idea that WWE has truly moved on from Vince McMahonat least not creatively.
In a recent discussion about WWEs future under TKO Group Holdings, the ECW legend didnt hold back when asked whether the company is finally breaking free from McMahons influence. Douglas made it clear that while Vince might no longer be the public face of creative decisions, his presence is still being felt behind the scenes thanks to those he trained personallyTriple H and Stephanie McMahon.
He wasnt necessarily knocking Triple Hs success but emphasized how hard it is to break away from the style you were brought up in.
Douglas drove the point home with a blunt analogy about mentorship and legacy.
While WWEs public stance is all about moving forward, Douglas sees a company still rooted in its old playbookbecause the people writing todays shows were trained by the man who built yesterdays.cWhether you agree with Shane or not, the idea that Vince McMahons shadow still looms large over WWE is a perspective worth consideringespecially as TKO continues to steer the ship.
Do you think Triple H has truly taken WWE in a new direction, or is Vince Mc Mahon still pulling strings in spirit? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
