Veteran claims Triple H and Stephanie McMahon had a "plan" after Shane McMahon had a falling out with WWE (Exclusive)
Vince Russo recently spoke about Triple H and Stephanie McMahon seemingly having plans to takeover WWE before the Endeavor deal came through.
The global wrestling juggernaut was a family-run business for years before Vince McMahon decided to let go of the reigns earlier this year. Though there had been rumors of a sale for the last couple of years, things finally fell into place with Endeavor in a multi-billion dollar deal, with WWE merging with UFC.
On Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Outlaws, the former WCW writer spoke about how Stephanie McMahon and Triple H became two of the most powerful people in WWE last year once Vince stepped down. However, Russo added that things went for a toss for them once Endeavor acquired the promotion.
"I think what it really affects, let's just be honest, him and Stephanie had a plan. There was no doubt about it. Shane, for whatever reason, had a falling out. So now Shane's out of the picture. Vince was getting older. It was at a point when Stephanie and Triple H had all the power. This has totally flipped it upside down," said Russo. [5:58 - 6:28]
