Eva Marie made her return to WWE a few weeks back, but she didn't arrive alone. Marie was accompanied by her protégé, Doudrop, who was formerly known as Piper Niven in NXT UK.

The storyline between the two women shows how Marie regularly shames and undercuts her protégé despite riding on her coattails. As per PWInsider, Vince McMahon is invested in the angle and is super impressed with Piper Niven's work on WWE RAW.

“We’re going to see a lot of Eva Marie and Doudrop, because Vince apparently loves the end goal,” stated Mike Johnson of PWInsider. “I was told he’s super impressed with Piper Niven so far.”

The report also stated that McMahon wasn't initially on-board with the storyline. However, once Niven started standing up to Marie, the WWE Chairman became highly interested.

“The story that was told to me was, ‘he wasn’t sold on the idea, but let’s do it.' Then after that first week, where Piper stood up to her. He loved it, he loved the facial expressions," added Johnson.

Though many fans and critics hope this angle will not linger on for long, they may be in for some disappointment, judging by Vince McMahon's reported reaction to the storyline.
