Konnan says WWE lost their way by catering to Vince McMahon

Vince McMahon owns WWE and he has the last say in everything that goes on in the company, which has left many fans frustrated with his decisions made over the years. Fans have gotten tired of Vince McMahon doing whatever he wants.

 


 

While speaking to Forbes, Konnan discussed WWE in the way he perceives it. Despite not working for WWE, he can clearly see what goes on in the company. In the end, it is about what Vince McMahon wants and it has had negative effects on the product as ratings continue to decline.

“Somewhere along the way, [WWE] lost their way. I work in Mexico and I help put together a live show, but it’s like a two-hour show and that’s it. They’re doing a three-hour show on Monday, and then a two-hour show and all that original content in WWE Ride Along and Table for 3. SmackDown is usually better because it’s only two hours and their storylines are better. A lot of times, at the end of the day, it’s what Vince McMahon wants, and it shouldn’t be what he wants, it should be what the fans want.”

Perhaps one day WWE will be able to find a balance between keeping both Vince McMahon and the fans happy with the product, but that might not be happening anytime soon.
