Shane McMahon was reportedly let go from WWE as a performer by his father, Vince McMahon following the 2022 Royal Rumble. During the Royal Rumble match, Shane was said to have been in charge of production and created a scene by allegedly inserting himself in a few key moments, including the number 28 spot in the match.
The Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported that Vince McMahon was heard backstage telling others that his son “would never get another pop in this company as long as I’m around,” following their Royal Rumble dispute.
A WWE source told SRS that they believe the statement was stated “in the heat of the moment” but felt that Mr. McMahon’s frustration with his son at the time was “extreme, but justified” due to the fact that he reportedly “compromised Brock Lesnar’s satisfaction” with the Rumble match that night.
