McMahons are taking over both the main roster shows of the WWE. The process started on this week’s WWE Raw and continued on Smackdown. As a part of this, we received a shocker on last night’s episode from Fresno, California. Shane McMahon kicked off the show with the breaking news that the general manager post is no longer available on his show.
Paige broke up with her boyfriend
So they released Paige from the GM post and thereby relieved her of the duties. The youngest Divas Champion in the history of the WWE received a round of applause from the superstars. It was at backstage where the superstars broke out into loud ‘Thank You Paige’ chants to applaud her works for the last several months. The anti-Divas appreciated this a lot as the small video package came to an end. Going forward, we did not spot Paige on the show, anymore.
However, Shane McMahon did confirm that Page was not going anywhere from Smackdown. So she should be present on the show in some capacity. But the commissioner of the show has not disclosed what her exact role could be in the future. Probably, Paige will act as manager for someone, going forward. In her place, the McMahons will be in charge of Smackdown.
No doubt, Paige has turned out to be one of the biggest attractions on Smackdown TV ever since Shane McMahon named her as the general manager. We’re still not sure whether WWE would remove her from TV, completely. It could affect the TV ratings to a big extent considering the fan following that Paige has worldwide. Hopefully, she sticks to the blue brand since WWE will also need for the upcoming movie promotion based on her family.
Aww.. @RealPaigeWWE soooo sorry to hear you aren’t @WWE #SDLive general manager anymore.. I mean, you couldn’t even make it playing yourself in your own movie so, I didn’t exactly have high hopes for you. It’s okay though! I make the movie #FightingWithMyFamily great 😉

While most of the Smackdown superstars were mourning about Paige’s removal from the general manager post, one turned out to be the exception. Zelina Vega posted a tweet taking a jab on the former GM. We should let you know that Vega is playing AJ Lee’s role in Paige’s autobiography based movie, Fighting with my Family. Paige is not playing her own role since it allowed Vega to comment about her incapability. We expect this might turn out to be a storyline on Smackdown to promote the movie in a bigger way in the upcoming months.
