During the talent meeting prior to Raw, WWE President Nick Khan praised the retiring Kevin Dunn and commented that Dunn led with "strength" and that the company will "lead with strength" going forward. Dunn was very much praised upon his exit and was treated in reverence as someone who, alongside Vince McMahon, built WWE up for everyone to be part of today.
One name that has been mentioned a lot internally as filling Dunn's role is Chris Kaiser, WWE's Executive Vice President of Television, PWInsider.com has been told. Kaiser has been a big figure behind the scenes in the company for close to a decade and would be heavily involved in a lot of the management and overseeing of the TV production side of the company. One person described it as Dunn having the "rubber stamp" officially on decisions but that Kaiser had been the one truly in the trenches in recent years.
