Shane McMahon was flown to Birmingham, Alabama after Wrestlemania 39 Night Two, so it appears he underwent surgery to repair his torn quadraceps earlier this week. We are told McMahon is already back home in the Northeast recovering.

Shinsuke Nakamura, who was in attendance at the WWE Hall of Fame, is expected back for the Smackdown brand soon we are told. Nakamura last wrestled for the company at a live event in January.
Nakamura should have inducted Muta in the HOF tbh.
 
The WWE Draft was set to happen late last year, but then got moved.

A draft that would have effectively reset the rosters for the new Triple H regime was rumored late last year, however talent were told that it was being moved to an undetermined time in 2023. However, Fightful Select can confirm that unanimously across over a dozen talent on the WWE roster have not been told that a WWE Draft is coming, or when it could even be.

There were numerous WWE talent that said that in discussing it with others, they "just assume it would happen after WrestleMania" as it did many times in the past. As of Friday afternoon, talent still hadn’t been told about one.

In the past, sources at both Fox and USA Network had told Fightful that they primarily prefer distinctly different and separate rosters in order to specialize their investment. However, since the Triple H regime took shape, we've heard much less of that.
