With WWE having undergone somewhat of a shake-up behind the scenes in certain departments recently, now comes a further update on some of these changes.

As per PWInsider, Jason Jordan has been promoted to the role of Lead Producer. This role was previously held by John Laurinaitis, who was recently moved back to his old gig heading up Talent Relations. Jordan will be overseeing all of the other producers during WWE TV tapings.

Elsewhere, John Cone is another to have had a promotion, becoming second-in-command to Laurinaitis in Talent Relations. Initial reports last week indicated that Cone had been completely removed from Talent Relations, but that decision was quickly reversed and his responsibilities have subsequently been bumped up.

The belief is that a couple more names have been added to Talent Relations, although there are no set details on just who those names are. Likewise, Adam Pearce has seen a rise in his stock, with him having been bumped up to a new, to-be-confirmed role.

These changes are part of WWE President Nick Khan’s rejigging of the company – which include last week’s departure of long-serving former Senior Director of Talent Relations, Mark Carano.
