The Royal Rumble PPV has been a staple for WWE since the 80s. The fans have always been enticed by the idea of a ‘surprise’ entrance in the match. During this year’s Royal Rumble match, the entrance of Shane McMahon was a big surprise, and fans were very excited to see Shane back in WWE.

However, the real surprise came after a few days of the Rumble PPV. WWE chairman Vince McMahon fired his own son Shane McMahon because he acted ‘hastily’ after the men’s Royal Rumble match.

According to a recent report from Fightful Select, there were multiple moving parts that led to the shocking firing of Shane McMahon.

Vince McMahon disliked all the plans Shane McMahon brought to the table

Fightful got in touch with WWE and learned that Shane was fired because his father Vince didn’t like what he wanted to do at the Rumble Match.

Before the Rumble match, Shane O’Mac pitched various ideas and wanted to move into a spot where he would become the highlight of the match. Shane even pitched to enter the Rumble match at the number one spot.

However, Vince McMahon and former WWE champion Brock Lesnar didn’t like all these changes that Shane was proposing.

Following is an excerpt of the same report from Fightful Select.

“Several sources have indicated that Shane McMahon specifically wanted to go on in a spot that would highlight him, with one even mentioning that he pitched the number one spot.”

Because of all this, one more blunder happened during the men’s Royal Rumble match. Shane was actually supposed to be number 29, and Randy Orton number 28, but in the end, their entrance numbers got reversed.

All this animosity backstage before the Royal Rumble match resulted in Shane getting fired. However, multiple former WWE superstars came forward and consoled him.

Recently, former Universal Champion Braun Strowman invited Shane McMahon to wrestle with him at the Indy circuit.

For now, Shane has made no official statement regarding his release from WWE. However, there are various theories running wild in the business.
