[edit] Vince's Storyline Death

Storyline wise, I would guess Vince's control over everything as of last night.

Is the General Manager position on RAW still assumed vacant??? Didn't Vince tell everyone two weeks ago that he was going to keep his role... but have Coach as his assistant??? Matt

That he did... there was never anything conclusive to suggest that we could make the assumption. McMahon did say that he could not hire a replacement, so he would be retaining the position and hiring an assistant to help him... Clint 06:17, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stone Cold's Position

I've moved Stone Colds Sheriff dates to the CO-GM section as he was officially the CO-GM of Raw (see the re-hiring footage from RAW). Stone Cold stated he wanted his own terms, which was a position unique to himself, so he invented the title "Sheriff" User:WackadooXanadu

His titles as co-GM and Sheriff were seperate and not the same. He was co-GM, then lost the position in the Team Austin vs. Team Bischoff Survivor Series match, then brought back later as the "Sheriff". TJ Spyke 09:10, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other WCW People

What about a listing for the following, who all appeared on air as authority figures for WCW

  • Jim Herd 1988 - 1991
  • Kip Allen Frey 1991 - 1992
  • Bill Watts 1992 - 1993 User:VWG

Wasn't Rowdy Roddy Piper the WCW Commissioner for a while? TheUnknown285 15:09, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Interim GM"

Vince McMahon is no longer referred to as "Interim GM" on RAW (either on TV or WWE.com).

When he named Coach as his Executive Assistant, he essentially gave him the GM job under a new title.

[edit] Honorary GM

Michael Pena needs to be kept on this page as GM. A "point" was made that it should not count because he was an "honorary" general manager. This person stated that it was similar to when Christy Whitman, former gov. on New Jersey, was made an honorary WWE Champion and that would mean that she should be added to the list of WWE Champions. However, she was NOT made an honorary WWE Champion; she was simply presented with a WWE Championship for her achievement in the same style Linda McMahon presented Laura Bush with one, WWE presented the Detroit Pistons with one for winning the 2005 Finals and when TNA presented David Eckstein with an X-Division Championship. The child made on-screen decisions and therefore should be added. What does everyone else think? — Chad "1m" Mosher Email Talk Cont. 23:19, 12 April 2007 (UTC)


I added William Regal under temporary GMs for July 2, 2007. Virakhvar321 06:04, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
