Scarlett Bordeaux: Vince McMahon’s Quiet Return Meant Last-Minute Booking Changes

In an interview with Denise Salcedo, Scarlett Bordeaux said unearthed text messages and backstage whispers made it clear Vince McMahon was influencing WWE creative again after his 2022 retirement. Bordeaux noted that even though he wasn’t publicly visible, shows began feeling like they did before he left, with an uptick in last-minute changes and producers privately telling talent “he’s back.”

Bordeaux and husband Killer Kross enjoyed the first months after their 2022 return, but plans quickly shifted as McMahon’s involvement grew — a storyline with Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre was scrapped and Kross claims a planned WrestleMania match with Bray Wyatt was “killed.” McMahon’s 2022 retirement, 2024 resignation amid ongoing litigation, and Triple H’s recent remarks that WrestleMania 40 was the first fully under his creative control provide wider context to the turbulent period.
