F4WOnline.com reports that SmackDown! writer Michael Hayes recently pitched an idea to creatively “write Shane McMahon out of the promotion.”
All indications are that he brought the idea up privately in front of the writers, as opposed to in front of Vince or Stephanie McMahon, as Shane’s resignation remains a taboo discussion topic backstage.
Wrestlers are still not getting much in the way of information on what drove McMahon’s decision. Triple H has been telling fellow wrestlers that he knows nothing more than the other talent about the situation, although many are skeptical of that alleged reality.
