How Vince McMahon should return to television

Vince McMahon

With the daunting task of creating compelling televisions during the PG Era of the WWE, the authority storyline stands out as a angle that is good for business, but could be so much.

Although The Authority storyline with Triple H, Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton continues to captivate The WWE Universe every week, the storyline itself looks dangerously close to reaching a unsatisfying and predictable climax at Hell In Hell.

We all know the rumors that Vince McMahon is set to return to television after Hell in a Cell and battle his tyrant son in law for control of the WWE. We also can predict the ensuing fight will most likely center on what both men believe to be best for business, but where does the storyline go from there? What exactly would be Vince McMahon’s driving force to return to television?

Besides the obvious angle of Vince battling Triple H for control of the Company, there really is no believable storyline right now that would justify a return by Vince McMahon. In fact, the last time we saw Vince McMahon on television was the Monday Night Raw after SummerSlam, where Vince stood arm and arm with his Son in law, and praised him for doing what was best for business.

So then how does the WWE go from Vince praising his son in law’s decision to make Randy Orton the face of the company, to Vince returning to TV and demanding his company back for The Game? Besides a bunch of pointless jokes about low ratings and unhappy employs since Vince has left, I really see no way that this storyline could be even remotely interesting.

The feud between Triple H and Vince McMahon will no doubt continue to center on whether giant-like superstars with proper body muscle should be the face of the company, or if WWE can thrive with a smaller underdog like character. Although that angle added fuel to the fire to the John Cena versus Daniel Bryan storyline, it seems doubtful that The WWE would be interested in the same angle a second time around.

If the WWE is going to have Vince McMahon return to television and battle his son, they need fresh and exciting angles to do it with. They need something that goes beyond the squared circle and the business altogether. If this storyline is going to work, it needs to get personal.

With Triple H being on a massive power trip after screwing Daniel Bryan out of the WWE title title at Summerslam, Night of Champions and Battleground the WWE need to further his character development, and have him turn on his own associates in a vicious and cruel manner.The double heel turn would allow for Stephanie McMahon, who has been on a power trip of her own lately, to turn face and reunite with her father to battle Triple H for control of the company.

The best way to do this, is to have Triple H continue on his current power trip and start to flirt with some of the divas. The flirting will cause Stephanie to go irate and start building the storyline towards a affair. Finally Triple H will cross the line and be caught in the act with a diva by Stephanie, thus turning her face so she can make a alliance with her dad and battle a egotistical Triple H for control of the company.

The storyline would not only give a big boost to the main event picture and The Authority storyline, but would also allow for a quicker return by Divas Champion, AJ Lee, to take on a mouthpiece role in the company while she fully recovers from injury.

The WWE has tried their hand at affair storylines before, The most recent one being the failed romance between former Raw General Manager, AJ Lee and John Cena, but with fans already going wild from Big Show‘s knockout punch to Triple H last week on Raw, The WWE Universe is practically begging for another reason to despise Triple H, and what better way to do so then having a affair while married to the bosses daughter?
