It was an extremely shocking night for WWE fans on Friday, as Vince McMahon announced his retirement from all roles in the company. This came as a surprise to everyone, including many behind the scenes, as Brock Lesnar reportedly walked out of Smackdown hours before the show was set to air. He eventually came back in time for the show, but it was a chaotic night.
As Vince McMahon has been running WWE since 1982, every major moment in the company’s history has been thanks to his input. It’s left many excited about how WWE will change in the wake of his retirement, especially as the general consensus is that the product has grown stale over the past few years.
