I have a feeling he will be around a whole lot longer than many people think.
a) he is actually pretty good at what he does b) can't remember where he said it, but regarding the yes man accusation, he pretty much said that he will argue as long as no final decision has been made, but once the boss has decided he will do his best to make it work and support it. Which is a very healthy position to have in my opinion and one I think the new regime can work with IMO.
I suppose his role will disminish over time, but he probably will be around.

HHH and Steph are going to need someone to get their coffee.

I kind of think Vince may have retired and asked Steph and HHH to look after "his guys" kind of like his dad did for guys like Skaaland, Monsoon etc. I'd assume Dunn and Bruce are both included. They may not be working there forever but they'll get a paycheck forever.

I'm an ass that wishes he would leave just so we could get his podcast back. Say what you want about him, but he's an entertaining story teller.

well... you know... I honestly think he'll flourish with the new regime. I don't think it's the case anymore but if he and Steph still butt heads it's probably a good thing. Balance eachother out and all. I can see him being the last big innercircle guy holding on. I mean, dude is a carnival barker and was seemingly a Vince yes man but it's not like he wasn't extremely good at what he did. As I said elsewhere the BIG thing I saw that caused issues between Steph and Bruce were people going to Bruce instead of Stephanie to pitch things... which kinda won't be an issue with the current setup.

He’ll eventually be replaced by Kevin Nash….who will possibly be working a Brother Love gimmick.

It would depend on his willingness and ability to execute Hunter's vision. If he's on board with doing things their way, he's probably fine. He's been around wrestling forever and they need that knowledge. If he isn't on board and people like Matt Bloom and Jeremy Borash can do his job, then he probably won't be around long.
I'm curious if they would lean more to Paul Heyman moving forward than Pritchard though.

I’ve definitely enjoyed the product Bruce has put out more than what Heyman offered in that window of time that he ran Raw. We had a bunch of cuck angles and squash matches seemingly every week on Raw and the whole tone of the program was a downer, IMO.

Hope he gets canned so his podcast gets going again.

Bruce will go back to his podcast to try to convince listeners that Duke The Dumpster Droese was super over in the 90s and could have done well in the Attitude era.

If things go south with the new regime he could always put on old man make up and pretend to be Jerry Jarrett.

The stories weren't amazing, but I liked that there were 3 or 4 different women's feuds going on at one point. He also still has a good eye for talent since he apparently wanted to push Aleister Black, Murphy, and others.

He will end up on the street after giving all his money away to a televangelist.

Prichard is in a somewhat better position than I would imagine Dunn is. That said, both have taken a huge tumble in influence since the knives came out for Vince. He'll be part the creative team, but not its head, and there will be certain angles he won't be allowed to touch until he shows that he can be trusted with them (i.e. the women's division).
Dunn will be given some very specific instructions about how the camera work is to look (dare we hope) and will not dare either deviating from them nor trying to direct the creative otherwise. He's absolutely outside the circle of trust now and will have to assume that anyone under him in production or anyone brought in will be his replacement sooner rather than later. An early retirement package for Dunn might be an acceptable expense for the company to take on.

Brother Love is a professional yes man, he’ll stick around for a while before he inevitably pisses HHH or Stephanie off. If Heyman is part of their circle as rumored I can see him pushing to get rid of Prichard as well, dude is ruthless. Why? He's very good friends with Heyman and WWE did some of their best stuff when they were working as a team. If anything, Heyman would help him save his job
