to anyone who thinks its a story line swerve your not to bright. The WWE being a publicly traded company can not lie to there stock holders about there top level executives leaving or not leaving the company.
I would imagine its Shane wondering if he can do something else without his family. I mean its not that uncommon for a kid who grows up in the family buisness to want to leave and be there own man. I can only imagine Shane is feeling the same way
Also for those who said maybe a MMA thing I could see that as well. Quite a few years ago before Zuffa bought UFC Shane tried to convince Vince that they should purchase it and run UFC as a seperate buisness. Shane has always wanted the WWE to try a sister MMA Buisness, instead we got Bodybuilding in the 80's and then more recent history Football. It is possible that Shane is either looking to start his own MMA Promotion or maybe even buying whole or part of an existing MMA Promotion realizing that his father will never get on board. Shane no doubt is still is a larger share holder in the company and will no doubt be the majority share holder of the WWE with Stephanie in the future and will no doubt be back, but he's probably hoping that by that time that his MMA buisness is good to merge it all under the WWE Corperate unbrella by the time that roles around
