Vince McMahon can still make changes to WWE television remotely. It appears that is exactly what he did this week.

Sean Sapp noted behind Fightful’s paywall that Vince McMahon did make changes to WWE RAW this week. He wasn’t even in the building to make those changes happen.

The report noted that, “Vince McMahon made changes to WWE Raw again for the June 12th show, and word got around to talent shortly before the program.” It was further confirmed that Vince McMahon was not backstage at RAW this week. That didn’t stop him from making changes.

McMahon is not backstage at the show, but has been making changes remotely per usual. So if you had any questions as to whether or not he was returning to the road after being at last week’s show in Hartford, it doesn’t appear so. That show was in close proximity (relatively speaking) to WWE HQ, and even last week, most backstage didn’t think McMahon would be returning to the road despite him sitting in Gorilla Position.

We’re told the changes that he made on the June 5 show were largely timing, match order and the like. WWE sources also indicated that he adjusts the aftermath of certain matches, as well. WWE talent have largely said they prefer him making the changes remotely, though last week was one of the more positively received Raws of the year. 

It was also reported that, “we’ll likely stop reporting this unless major changes are made or mayhem ensues, as it’s simply the standard at this point. We haven’t heard of any earth-shattering or momentous changes.”

It seems that Vince McMahon changes to WWE television is becoming a common occurrence once again. After all, he was known for his constant changes during the years he ran the show from the Gorilla Position.
