5 Reasons Paige Was Removed As SmackDown General Manager

#3 Shane McMahon is turning heel

Finally, SmackDown LIVE Commissioner Shane McMahon makes his way to the squared circle!

Ever since the WWE World Cup, it seemed like the seeds were planted for a Shane McMahon heel turn. It could be hit or miss, but if this is true, then they may have removed Paige as GM so that Shane McMahon gets more screen time to try and enforce his authority.

With that said, the last thing fans need is yet another heel authority figure. We just got done with the reign of tyranny of Corbin and it was only a few years ago that the Authority had disbanded.

Babyface authority figures are the best because they prevent the same repetitive storyline. With that being said, Shane is always going to be in a storyline, especially at WrestleMania season. But a heel turn is very likely because it gives him a fresh set of opponents to take on at the grandest stage of them all.
