#3. Vince McMahon changes the SmackDown Live script
It can be tough to work with the WWE boss. If you had doubts about that statement, the latest speculation may help in changing your mind.
As revealed by the Wrestling Observer, Vince McMahon showed up on SmackDown Live hours before the show and completely changed the script. It was additionally stated that McMahon was still working on the script for the second hour while the first hour of the show was underway. The reason behind the impromptu alterations, you ask?
Mr. McMahon felt that the script didn't properly follow-up on the angles from last week's episode and he believed that the show didn't do justice in the build-up towards SummerSlam. It's interesting to note that while Eric Bischoff has begun his stint as the Executive Director of the blue brand, he still isn't involved in the creative side of things, which is still in Vince McMahon's control.
All we can do here is sympathize with the producers and talents who dealt with the last-minute changes on the most recent episode.
