10 Huge Questions Raised By Stephanie McMahon Quitting WWE

6. How Will This Impact WrestleMania Season?

Erm...guys, it's...it's WrestleMania season.

'Mania 39 is right around the corner, and WWE is about plunge headfirst into build for the show at Royal Rumble on 28 January. That's mere weeks away, so all of this behind-the-scenes uncertainty can't be doing anybody any good. If anything, it's an unwanted distraction when there's money to be made.

The Rumble-WrestleMania quarter is typically WWE's most financially rewarding every single year, certainly in terms of domestic ticket sales and overall fan interest. Lapsed enthusiasts return in their millions to check out what's happening in those 30-person matches, and they typically stick around until the pyro goes off to close 'Mania.

Will Vince's return have a negative impact on everything? What's more, does Stephanie's departure knacker some on the roster (more on that later), or does talk of a sale make everyone question why they should be thrilled about this year's supershow format?

These are super-strange times, people.
