As seen at WWE\u00a0Smackdown 1000\u00a0<\/em>this week, the Commissioner of the Blue Brand, Shane McMahon, made his long-awaited return to TV in a segment alongside his sister Stephanie McMahon and his father Vince McMahon.<\/p>\n

While Shane is the active Commissioner of\u00a0Smackdown Live<\/em>, he has not been on TV in months following a bout with acute diverticulitis back in May, which not only landed McMahon in the hospital, but also required the WWE star to undergo surgery after he suffered an umbilical hernia.<\/p>\n

According to a new report by\u00a0PWInsider<\/em><\/a>, Shane McMahon’s return at\u00a0Smackdown 1000\u00a0<\/em>this week was indeed WWE’s way of re-introducing McMahon to TV, and he is expected to be a regular on\u00a0Smackdown<\/em> going forward. The report adds WWE will be working Shane back into the Tuesday night storylines and he will be appearing on the show in weeks to come.<\/p>\n[lawrence-related id=851671]\n

Since Shane has been absent from WWE TV, former\u00a0Raw\u00a0<\/em>star and Absolution leader Paige has been holding down the fort on\u00a0Smackdown<\/em>, as she is the acting General Manager of the brand.<\/p>\n

When Shane returned to\u00a0Smackdown\u00a0<\/em>this week, he had a classic spat with his sister Stephanie McMahon, reminding her once again that\u00a0Smackdown<\/em> is the “A” show in WWE. Stephanie of course disagreed with Shane, but did put over\u00a0Smackdown’s\u00a0<\/em>impressive success with 1,000 recorded episodes of the show.<\/p>\n

With Shane McMahon returning to WWE TV in a regular role, the\u00a0Smackdown\u00a0<\/em>brand will be helmed by him and General Manager Paige, while the\u00a0Raw\u00a0<\/em>brand is controlled by heels in Commissioner Stephanie McMahon, and currently acting General Manager Baron Corbin. Most recently, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle made his return to\u00a0Raw\u00a0<\/em>following his “mandatory vacation”, but it appears as if he is not returning to his previous role as the GM of the red brand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
