With Paul Heyman being removed from the Executive Director's position, Vince McMahon is back at the wheel on RAW and he has already made a few big changes backstage.

Tom Colohue revealed that a Liv Morgan segment was pulled last-minute from the most recent episode of RAW by Vince McMahon. The segment was similar to the vignettes that Morgan has had in recent weeks in which she is out to find herself.

Tom noted that Vince McMahon had pulled several other pre-taped segments in recent weeks. Vince McMahon had been in direct touch with the editing team and various segments were said to have been 'left on the cutting room', without direct communication at the Executive Director's level.

On the recent Fightful Q&A podcast, Sean Ross Sapp was asked about whether the creative team had lost interest in Liv Morgan. SRS stated that Morgan is still liked backstage, but the lack of a long-term plan has hurt her run on RAW. Here's what he had to say:

"I think her ceiling is multiple-time world champion. She works her a** off! Everybody that I talked to likes her, and yeah, I do think that it's died down because they didn't have s*** planned out for her long-term and it's frustrating. They give these people vignettes, so that they can bring them back and then they don't have plans for them."
