He's just not good at creative. At all. He's always been that way. You can tell he wants to make his dad proud and is jealous of Steph.

I'm pretty sure his business dealings in China were a disaster.

I really want them to run a "Shane got let go" angle but he bursts through security and keeps interrupting shit. Can imagine Byron Saxton saying "how can Vince keep his own son out of the building????" or some shit.

That would work better if it was Cole, but Shane's a RAW guy so I gotta work with what's there, brother brother

Weird shit. I don’t believe the heat at the Rumble stuff at all. Also, the dude’s grandmother just died. Like this week. Pretty sure the McMahons all have a funeral coming up.
Plans being scrapped? Sure, I buy that. Shane doesn’t want anything to do with the product right now? Also believable. But there’s something else going on. Not saying it’s a work or anything like that, but the story just doesn’t fit. Shane getting “heat” for the Rumble is not why you would cut ties with someone. |

Meltzer has kanefirmed the news as well
I think it's wonderful news. Shane won't get to hog a spot on the Mania card. All the talk of him arguing he and Brock should be the final two in the Rumble is hilarious. Then again, Shane tried to propose a Shane vs Brock match at WM a few years ago too. I for one will not miss his goofy looking punches. |

Shane vs. Austin Theory WrestleMania angle with Vince being involved could have maybe been interesting

Had no clue Shane is Executive Chairman of an electric car company. The guy is probably fucking busy.

Wasn’t the guy there with Vince and co. checking out the new Titan Towers after Triple H recovered from his heart attack? This is despite not working there.

The story makes a little more sense when you imagine Shane, not having any sort of official role in the company, actively going and changing a bunch of things like he has any sort of official authority to do so. It would be different if he were assigned the match. Then Bad Bunny gets jerked around and Vince kinda goes “You either work here or you don’t.”
Like, putting yourself in Jamie Noble’s shoes: How do you tell Shane McMahon no, while at the same time he’s technically an outside talent coming in. If Shane were actually there, I doubt this would have been a firing. But since he’s not, it’s just not an advantageous relationship to either party at the moment. |

And with Shane I’m not sure it’s aptitude or ability so much as…Steph really, really wants it and he doesn’t care so much. Lots of people will say that he’s jealous or has tried and all that, but he did walk for a number of years to do his own thing. Regardless of how successful that was or wasn’t (and who knows how well Steph would do outside WWE either?), he still left that nest. Steph has always been the better fit for the company, and the company has suited her. But for a while she was the sibling coming up with stupid ideas in creative too. |

It's why she was on the nominees for the Wrestling Observer Awards. She's won so many awards since she became Chief Brand Officer. Like the Eisenhower Fellow thing she was part of. the International Sports Hall of Fame. Something with the March of Dimes recently. SOOOOO important in terms of rehabbing the image of the company with sponsors and in the business world.
I believe it was Alex Greenfield who comments that Shane would pop in with these off the wall ideas in creative that nobody listened to because they were so "out there" |

The product quality has certainly suffered, but as long as they are being paid as content creators, they only need to do just enough, and they do still put out some great content mixed in with mostly time killing nonsense. |
