Vince McMahon has been there to see and lead the growth of WWE forever now. He has witnessed all the ups and downs during his time in the company, including stepping away from his role last year. Although McMahon is still a huge stakeholder in the company and returned to the company earlier this year, there was doubt whether he was involved with the creative like he used to be.

This is a huge change for the promotion. The creative is now led by his son-in-law Triple H. However, there have been several instances of doubt where fans have wondered whether McMahon is actually out of the involvement or secretly still controlling the creative team. This was recently answered by WWE CEO Nick Khan.
