Maybe it was for the better. There have been a good number of complaints about WWE TV in recent months and years. A good many of them are focused in the same areas and have to do with the way the show is presented. It doesn’t help when it is a similar style every week, but this time around we got a bit of a change of pace. There is a pretty big reason for the change.

According to PWInsider.com, Vince McMahon, Bruce Prichard, Kevin Dunn, Michael Hayes and Adam Pearce were all missing backstage from this week’s Monday Night Raw. There is no word on why they were not at the show and nothing to suggest that they have tested positive for the Coronavirus. With the group being gone, the show was run by John Laurinaitis and Ed Koskey. There is no word on when everyone will be back.

That is a lot of people missing. Check out what they can do when they are around:

Opinion: This is one of those situations where there could be a much less serious explanation. We are two days removed from Christmas Day and the new year is less than a week away. While the Coronavirus is going to be the initial thought for a lot of people, there is a very real chance that some of these people were taking some extra time off around the holidays. I’d be interested to hear more about it, but this could be a lot less serious than it seems.

What do you think of the absences? How did you like the show? Let us know in the comments below.
