Vince McMahon is back in the office.
According to PWInsider, Vince McMahon was spotted at WWE Headquarters during this week.
McMahon is the executive chairman of the WWE board of directors, having returned to the board on January 6 and then being elected executive chairman on January 10. McMahon claimed, as the controlling shareholder, he needed to return to help lead the upcoming round of media rights negotiations.
On January 12, WWE announced that they were engaging with outside advisors to review strategic alternatives. Upcoming media rights negotiations were the reason given for WWE going to outside advisors, but reports indicated that WWE was also preparing to sell the company.
With McMahon returning to his position on the board, WWE held talent meetings in the proceeding weeks with Triple H stating that none of what is going on with Vince McMahon would change the creative process he has in place, or the team that helps put it together. In the meetings, Triple H did keep it open and say that anything could change, but right now Vince McMahon defers final creative to Triple H. Triple H also said that while he and Vince McMahon may have discussions, he makes the final call.
Nick Khan has stated that Vince will not return to television "at this moment" and that if he did, it would be a conversation between Vince and Triple H.
