PWInsider.com is told that there's been a pretty positive reaction in the locker rooms in regard to Vince McMahon's retirement.  

While there is some surprise given it was Vince and the belief he would always be around in some form, the idea that there would be a new "energy" for WWE creative has a lot of talents excited to see what comes next.   The belief among the younger talents that a younger vision creatively will help the company connect better with the overall audience.

There's also been a lot of wondering what his exit means for the remainder of the executive circles beyond Stephanie McMahon, Triple H and Nick Khan.

There's also been some who have noted they wished they could have at least said goodbye to Vince personally face to face and hoped he would be at Summerslam so they could do that.

Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Ludwig Kaiser is set for Smackdown.
