WWE SmackDown kicked off with a huge return. Amidst the massive makeover that the entire WWE presentation received, it was only fitting that “No chance in hell!” was the first theme song that got a run through. Vince McMahon came strutting in to introduce the latest chapter in WWE history.

However, all our hopes and aspirations about Vince making a big announcement were crashed. As soon as Vince started with his promo, he was interrupted by a familiar theme. Lights went red and “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt decided to crash The Chairman’s party.

Any WWE fan worth their salt knew what to expect. What better way to build up a monster than to make him destroy a 70 year old man? At least those were the intentions with which The Fiend approached the ring.

Being true to his character, Vince refused to shiver with fear in the face of this dastardly beast. As he tried to make his way out, he was repeatedly blocked by Wyatt. Thankfully for McMahon, Braun Strowman‘s music hit precisely at that moment. Mysteriously enough, amidst the entire Wyatt-Strowman face-off, Vince escaped from the ring.

Could Vince McMahon have done more?

It’s unfair to except an ageing Vince to take an active part in on-screen storylines. However, knowing the history of his work, he can single handedly create more interest around an angle.

Till now, The Retribution haven’t had the chance to seem like a legitimate threat. All they’ve done is to vandalize WWE property. If they really wanted to be taken seriously, beating down the boss of the organization they despise would’ve been the perfect route to take.

Their character is based on hating the system and unleashing anarchy. Vince McMahon represents the personification of everything they want to change. Taking him down would’ve been symbolic to their cause.

Clearly, the WWE missed a big opportunity with McMahon’s return.
