WWE fans also started trending the hashtag to fire Vince McMahon on Twitter
After a somewhat disappointing episode of RAW after WrestleMania 39 reports that Vince McMahon was responsible for many creative decisions during the show, fans decided not to sit back and let things pass by.
The hashtag started trending on Twitter after fans realized that matches and segments didn’t go how they should have, possibly due to the Executive Chairman’s interference.
A new trend took over Twitter, which says #FireVince, as fans wanted Vince to stay far away from the creative aspect of the product.
It will be interesting to see if fans take their chants to the upcoming episode of SmackDown or do something more to have their voices heard. After all, the WWE Universe drives the company and product forward.
