In what may be the first time, several members of WWE management were absent from this past week’s RAW and Smackdown.
Dave Meltzer noted in the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Vince McMahon, Stephanie McMahon, Triple H, and Kevin Dunn were all absent from this week’s RAW and Smackdown.
“Stephanie is not a regular at TV these days. She only comes when she’s needed which hasn’t been the case of late. HHH decided to go to Florida since they were doing two days of television“ Meltzer stated. “Vince had some corporate items that he felt he needed to take care of, and Kevin Dunn isn’t coming to television when Vince isn’t there.”
Ed Koskey was reportedly “running around like crazy” due to the absence of WWE management. Koskey is Vice President of Creative Writing for the company.
No word on how the backstage atmosphere was with the absence of Vince McMahon, but judging by several stories over the last several months, it was most likely less tense.
