10 Predictions For The State Of Wrestling In 5 Years

2. Triple H Assumes Control

Speak to the right wrestling fans and you'll hear jokes about how Vincent Kennedy McMahon will control WWE operations as some brain-in-a-jar, robot-limbed creation for generations to come. The truth is that Vince, contrary to reports, is human, and his time will come like it does for everybody else.

He might not formally retire, but what if Vince's job within the WWE system changes as he nears his 80s? That's possible, at least. Triple H has been readied as a replacement for the longest time now, and his corporate duties have skyrocketed over the past decade or so. Expect that to continue.

Trips and Stephanie McMahon are twin-pronged natural successors to Vince.

They know WWE business inside and out, and they've got the same tireless work ethic the old man does. By 2025, it'd be a surprise if Vince hadn't ceded some of his iron-clad authority over day-to-day business. The man's a machine, but he's also flesh and blood like the rest of us, and will be 79 when 2025 comes.
