The buildup to WrestleMania 35 has been nothing but must-see TV! WWE is going all the way with hyping the Raw Women's triple threat match, as well as Kofi Kingston's rise to the top and Seth's goal to slay The Beast, Brock Lesnar.
There's one crucial storyline that has been sidelined in all the chaos, and that is a future McMahon vs McMahon War for the control of WWE. Let's take a look at three signs that give an indication of this intriguing scenario.
#3 Vince belittling Triple H and Stephanie on Raw
Weeks ago, Vince came out on Raw to announce that Charlotte is going to be replacing Becky Lynch as Ronda's opponent at WrestleMania 35. He went on to say that Becky isn't The Man like she claims to be. The boss also added that he wouldn't accept Becky's apology like Triple H and Stephanie did.
Vince went on to announce Charlotte as Becky's replacement, much to the frustration of The Man. What everyone forgot was that Vince went on to reverse a decision that Triple H had just made. This is bound to come up in the near future when the McMahon War kicks off.
#2 Vince invades SmackDown and reverses a major decision
As an elated Kofi and his New Day brothers were on the verge of signing the Fastlane WWE title match contract, Vince came out and delivered a shocker.
Vince welcomed a returning Kevin Owens and announced him as Kofi's replacement at Fastlane. A dejected Kofi left the ring as Owens signed on the contract.
What most of us missed was the look on the faces of Stephanie and Shane McMahon. They were visibly upset at this last minute decision reversal by their father. This was the 2nd time in two weeks that Vince decided to change a decision they had agreed upon.
It's worth noting that Shane McMahon was the one who announced Kofi as the number 1 contender for the WWE title at Fastlane, only for Mr. McMahon to change the decision as if Shane's views meant nothing. This was the second sign pointing at a potential Civil War within the company.
#1 The McMahon segment on Raw
On the December 17th edition of Monday Night Raw, the entire McMahon family (minus Linda) addressed the WWE Universe, and promised that things were about to change for good. They announced that the McMahon family was going to control both brands as a united front.
This led to the firing of the ever hated Baron Corbin, much to the fans' elation. But was this a one-time thing? Most certainly not, as this segment will come into play as we move forward.
Although the McMahons promised the fans that they were going to control Raw and SmackDown as a collective entity, nothing was mentioned about the level of authority each McMahon was going to have on both shows.
Now that Vince has shown that he plans to overtake the entire company back from his children, the McMahon Civil War is bound to happen in the near future.
