5 reasons why Stephanie McMahon shouldn't return to WWE TV
There are a number of things to like about the current WWE product coming out of WrestleMania 33, especially the Superstar Shake-up that saw several stars switch shows. Most importantly, Raw is under new management with Kurt Angle being announced as Mick Foley's replacement as general manager.
Not only that, Stephanie McMahon has been kept off WWE TV since WrestleMania 33 after accidentally being put through a table by her husband Triple H. It was reported that a planned family vacation is why she has been absent from programming as of late, meaning she'll likely be back within the next few weeks.
Truth be told, no one is clamouring for Stephanie to return to Raw anytime soon, if ever, at least in a regular role. In fact, this would be the perfect opportunity for her to retire her on-air persona for good, and these are five reasons why.
#5 She is way too overexposed
When Stephanie McMahon initially returned to Raw in June 2013, she was welcomed back with open arms by the WWE Universe. Yes, part of that was because she was portrayed as a babyface at that point, but it was also due to how long it had been since we had seen her on WWE TV.
The Authority started out as an exciting idea, but it soon became the least compelling part of Raw starting that fall. Worse yet, the faction remained a staple on Raw through WrestleMania 32, and even after that, she was appointed to be the commissioner of Team Red by her father, Mr McMahon.
Stephanie's presence on programming is bad enough, but it's the fact that she's involved in as many segments on the show as she is that makes her unbearable as a character. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and a mere few weeks away from Raw isn't enough to allow Stephanie to feel fresh again.
