WWE fans have long been familiar with the chaos that often ensued behind the scenes of the company’s television shows under the creative direction of Vince McMahon. Last-minute changes were commonplace, leading to confusion and negative press. However, the situation has improved since Triple H took over WWE creative during McMahon’s hiatus.
According to Sean Sapp, writing behind the Fightful Select paywall, the creative plan for SmackDown was completed “well ahead of time” this week, with notes sent to staff by 3 pm the day before the show in Las Vegas.
It’s a refreshing change of pace for WWE as they continue their full-steam-ahead approach toward WrestleMania 39. With Triple H and his team now in control, the company is running like clockwork, preparing a smooth and seamless process for each episode.
