WWE is gearing up for the Money in the Bank event, and a surprise presence backstage has added an extra layer of intrigue. Vince McMahon, who isn’t frequently seen at events, has made an appearance this week.

As reported by PW Insider, Vince McMahon is present backstage at WWE RAW this week. While this is noteworthy, it isn’t entirely surprising given his close proximity to the venue.

“Vince McMahon is backstage at Raw in Hartford, CT, PWInsider has confirmed.”

Given the proximity to Stamford, this shouldn’t be a shock. It’s the first Raw since the day after Wrestlemania McMahon was personally in attendance.

The impact of McMahon’s presence on tonight’s episode of WWE RAW remains to be seen. His backstage appearance is significant, considering he has been directing operations remotely for the past few months.
