Vince McMahon’s current status for tonight’s WWE SmackDown

Following the official news via a press release that former WWE Chairman and CEO, Vince McMahon, is back with the company as he was reinstated on WWE’s Board of Directors, there have been questions regarding what this means for creative and tonight’s SmackDown.

Pwinsider.com reports that McMahon has not been seen in Memphis, TN, ahead of tonight’s SmackDown event. There were “whispers among employees” that he was at Titan Tower, but it never got confirmed.

Since he resigned in July, there had been rumors that he’s been seen at the Titan Tower gym for months, but “no one would ever confirm that as legitimate as well.”

Following the news that McMahon was back with the company in this role, WWE’s stock increased and, at one point, was up over 21%.

As previously reported, there will be an all-hands-on-deck meeting with WWE employees this afternoon regarding McMahon’s return. We’ll pass along any details from the meeting.

Tonight’s SmackDown will feature a Charlotte Flair segment, Ricochet vs. Top Dolla in a Royal Rumble qualifying match, and Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions The Usos vs. Drew McIntyre & Sheamus.
