PWInsider has more details on the recent changes made with staff in several departments in WWE following recent departures, including Mark Carrano last week. Several of the changes were due to WWE President Nick Khan shifting things around.
It was noted last week that John Cone had been relieved of his position as Manager of Talent Relations, but that change was rescinded. Cone is now reportedly ‘second in command’ to John Laurinaitis, which means he has more responsibility than he did previously. Meanwhile, at least one or two others have been added to the Talent Relations department.
Now that Laurinaitis is working in Talent Relations, there have been changes with WWE’s producers as well. Jason Jordan has now taken Laurinaitis’ role as Lead Producer and also has more responsibilities within the company. Adam Pearce has also moved up in the company, although details about his current role are unknown at this time.

Jason Jordan reportedly has a new role within WWE with bigger responsibilities.
As we’ve noted, WWE recently made several changes to several departments, including Talent Relations. John Laurinaitis took control of the department earlier this year, moving up from his role as Lead Producer.
In an update, word now via PWInsider is that Jordan has taken over Laurinaitis’ former role as Lead Producer. Jordan now oversees all other WWE producers at TV tapings. The new role includes much bigger responsibilities within the company.

Christian Cage was recently interviewed by Bleacher Report. During the interview, he talked about when he plans to hang up his boots and retire from the ring.
Here is what he said: I signed a multi-year deal with AEW. I am committed to getting through that and then we’ll see where I’m at. I haven’t put an exact date on it yet, but I know I am closer to the end than the beginning. In a way, my body has been preserved for the past seven years. I feel great in the ring so we will see what happens. Getting this back is a huge gift, and I won’t take it for granted any time I step through these ropes. I am taking it one step at a time and am thankful for every moment I get.
