Paul 'Triple H' Levesque has reportedly assumed 99.9% of WWE's creative power, effectively minimising Vince McMahon.

This is per PWInsider Elite's Mike Johnson, who wrote that while he isn't completely sure of the situation, WWE's backstage morale has recently experienced an upswing due to this belief.

Wrestlers and other individuals within WWE believe Levesque has effectively been "knighted" by parent company Endeavor. Triple H, not Vince, is understood to "... be the one driving 99.9% of the creative going forward."

Levesque has been WWE's Chief Content Officer since McMahon was forced to resign in disgrace amidst myriad sexual misconduct allegations in July 2022. In the process, Triple H became WWE's defacto head of creative, overseeing widely reported upswings in backstage morale, plus key performance metrics.

Vince returned to WWE's Board of Directors as Executive Chairman in January 2023, threatening to block new television rights deals and/or the sale of the company should other executives not agree to his comeback. When WWE's sale to Endeavor was announced in April, reports of him making last-minute changes to Raw and SmackDown surfaced on a near-weekly basis, along with the expected morale dips.
