Declan McMahon Says ‘The Story’s Already Written’ For Him In WWE

Vince McMahon carved out quite a legacy for everyone in his family to follow, and he followed his own father and grandfather’s legacy before that. Now, we are getting a glimpse at the future, and Shane McMahon’s son Declan McMahon seems to be in the perfect position to gain a spotlight in the years to come.

Declan McMahon is the son of Shane McMahon, and he is known for his football career at Indiana. He has also made appearances on WWE television, accompanying Shane McMahon in his match at WrestleMania 32 and being present in the front row at WWE Fastlane on October 7th.

While speaking to Developmentally Speaking, Declan McMahon was asked to name which of Shane’s and Stephanie’s children is the most likely to get into WWE. He then named himself without giving it much thought, like this is something he has considered himself in the past.

“Oh, probably me. I mean, the story, the story’s already written, right? I mean, the rightful heir, the good-looking — the one who looks like Vince, right? So, I think, just in the sense that you could play off the WrestleMania 20 [intro], right, like I posted on Twitter, right? You could play that off and just show that like, the new generation [of] McMahon has arrived. I think in that sense, I would. We have such a great family, and we’re all so supportive of each other. So I think, I think really, any of us could potentially want to do it. You know, I know Aurora, Paul’s oldest daughter, Triple H’s oldest daughter, she’s always talked about wanting to do it, but in having my dad and my grandpa’s ego, I think I’d be the best.”

We will have to see if Declan McMahon decides to jump in the ring. He certainly knows who to call to get that done, because he may frequent the WWE Performance Center eventually. Only time will tell how things pan out for McMahon, because he would also certainly have huge shoes to fill.

Declan McMahon isn’t the biggest guy on the Indiana Hoosiers football team, but size isn’t really a huge issue in WWE anymore, either. Therefore, the 6’0″, 190 lbs McMahon may have a future in the ring if he wants it. After all, WWE isn’t the land of the big men that his grandfather, Vince McMahon, made it out to be since his uncle, Triple H, took over.
