Vince McMahon Reportedly "Overruled," Authority in WWE "Diminished"

In a recent development within WWE, it appears that Triple H has taken the helm for the majority of creative decisions, as opposed to Vince McMahon. Discussing this transition, Dave Meltzer elaborated on Wrestling Observer Radio.

“Well, he’s out of creative. It’s a big story because Ari Emanuel, when they were on the verge of closing the deal, and had actually closed the deal in April, did media rounds and (said), ‘Vince will be in charge of the company (WWE), and if me and Vince have a disagreement, it goes the way Vince wants because Vince is the guy’. So then the deal went through, it only really went through about a month ago, and already, Vince is out of creative because of Ari Emanuel.”

Meltzer added that the situation is particularly noteworthy because it mirrors a time when Vince McMahon's father, Vincent Kennedy McMahon, stepped back in 1984. Despite assurances that Vince McMahon would retain control post-merger, he has been effectively sidelined. Meltzer concludes that "Vince’s power's clearly marginalized, there’s no way around that."
