Giovanni Vinci’s re-entry into WWE has not been a smooth sailing. Spectators are left wondering if recent issues have drifted him into the unfavorable side of the corporation.
Fightful provided clarity on the status of Vinci in WWE, debunking all such speculations.
Vinci’s re-debut match on WWE SmackDown did not meet expectations when he faced an unexpectedly swift defeat from Apollo Crews. This sequence led to speculations that Vinci, a former member of Imperium, might be subject to internal discord.
However, Fightful contradicted these claims, confirming there are no indications of Vinci being punished or benched due to misconduct.
The report explicitly mentioned, “I haven’t heard of him being in the doghouse. But I haven’t heard of any significant plans for him, either. They didn’t have meaningful plans for him anyway.”
This report hints at Vinci’s current scenario as being more about the absence of a creative plan for him, rather than any intentional internal disciplinary action.
Despite WWE investing in publicity and vigorously promoting Vinci’s return, his unfruitful run of losses has led fans to question if WWE intends to give Vinci serious consideration or whether he will continue to grapple for a purposeful position on SmackDown.
