WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon recently spoke with Sportskeeda, during the interview the CBO of WWE had some interesting comments with regards to the content that WWE produces for weekly television and WWE Network events.
“Well, we’re still going to be PG, family friendly, but there is room to push the envelope in some cases,” Stephanie McMahon stated. “In terms of the Lana-Bobby Lashley storyline, WWE is like a variety show. It is, at the end of the day, competition-based, but especially on RAW and SmackDown, you have more of those soap operatic storylines, and that’s why it’s been showcased on RAW.”
“I think there are so many opportunities…”
McMahon also discussed some of the top talent in WWE’s NXT brand. “I think there are so many opportunities,” Stephanie claimed regarding NXT performers becoming the top Superstars in the company. “Keith Lee for sure. Bask in his glory! Rhea Ripley, for sure, stands out. Bianca Belair stands out. Shayna Baszler stands out. Adam Cole stands out. Matt Riddle stands out. Really, everyone on the roster absolutely stands out.
“So many of them that are ready…” – Stephanie McMahon
“Of course, we can’t forget about NXT UK. Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate and everyone else. As you said, NXT started off as a developmental league and has evolved into WWE’s third global touring brand and those stars, there are so many of them that are ready.”
