Just a night before SmackDown, the McMahon family opened up Raw with a segment where they announced that they were there to give the fans what they want, and were taking back control of the two brands to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

Taking out Baron Corbin was part of their plan to make the fans believe they were putting him through hell for their sake, even though the McMahons have always been behind the bookings on both shows.

Paige was doing an extremely good job as the General Manager of SmackDown, and most fans loved her character, even though she was an on-screen puppet. Since SmackDown wasn’t broken, why was it fixed?

Shane sent Paige back home from her job, and said that she would take a new undefined position. Even if that position means she is making her comeback in the ring, it makes no sense to do so this early, as Paige should never have been fired if the McMahons were going to listen to the fans.

Instead, they made an undesired change the very night after they announced that they will be listening to the fans.
