WWE’s deal with Endeavor was in the works for a long time. Although everything has been confirmed for a while, reports suggested that the transition was still taking place. Now that Endeavor has made enough changes, they are ready to shift the power dynamics of the company. So, tonight’s Monday Night Raw will see the last episode under the old leadership of WWE.

The Stamford-based company has always been running off of heritage. However, the family’s rule will be taken away from the promotion after tonight’s Raw episode. The reason behind the same is the deal that Vince McMahon struck with Endeavor.

The wrestling company has been run by the McMahon family ever since its inception. Whether the person in charge is related to the family by birth or by law, McMahon didn’t change this rule until he accepted the offer from Endeavor. WWE’s deal has now completely closed, meaning that Endeavor is free to make major changes. According to reports, tonight’s Monday Night Raw episode will be the last one under the management of the family.

Although the amount of control the family will have is not yet clear, reports suggest that Endeavor is bringing in big changes in full swing. Someone among the McMahons could still be in charge of the creatives or that might also be taken over by Endeavor. However, the sports entertainment company could still keep them in charge of WWE, restricting their autonomy to an extent.

No matter the scenario, some fans are still visibly nostalgic concerning the end of the McMahon era. If you’re confused about how you feel, perhaps looking at some handpicked reactions might help you find the right emotion.
