Brad Shepard reports that there is no indication of Vince McMahon giving up his spot in WWE to focus on the XFL. This theory was set into high gear after Triple H liked and unliked a tweet that suggested this. However, that is not the case. It just means that Vince McMahon will have even more on his plate.
A high level source speaking to me on @TripleH liking tweets critical of @VinceMcMahon and the current TV product: “Hunter is definitely working people on Twitter. That wasn't by accident. There is no indication at this point that Vince will back off WWE to do the XFL. 1/2 #WWE

So far @VinceMcMahon’s pattern is getting more and more similar to how he did it in 2001, where he does both and the entire company basically does both as well. 2/2 #WWE @TripleH

Only time will tell how everything pans out, but Vince McMahon is said to have financial backing to keep the XFL afloat for far longer this time around. In the meantime, it appears that WWE’s resources are going to go to the XFL even though it was said that wouldn’t be the case.
