The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers tease that Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) may need to watch her back and become a bit more protective of her CEO spot. Y&R fans know Victoria was all for Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) rejoining Newman Enterprises and happily put him in the COO role.
However, Victoria may not be as enthusiastic if Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) tries to push for Nick’s promotion.
Although Victor isn’t thrilled about Nick’s romantic interest in Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope), business comes first.
In other words, Victor can put his feelings about Sally aside and do what he believes is best for the company.
There may come a time when Victor feels it’s indeed best to promote Nick.
Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) currently serves as co-CEO alongside Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle), but she hinted about Nick taking her place someday.
Although Nikk isn’t ready to step down now, she’s hopeful that Nick can take the co-CEO reins eventually.
Of course, the time may come sooner than anyone expects, especially with a new year on the horizon.
It’s easy to imagine Nikki reevaluating her life in 2023 and deciding she wants to take a step back from business.
Nikki might opt to focus on her family instead of locking in deals and keeping up with all the numbers.
Victor has stepped back from Newman Enterprises, so Nikki might decide to join him in having more free time – particularly with their grandchildren.
Regardless, it seems like Newman Enterprises is overdue for a CEO shakeup by now. Victor can never leave the power hierarchy alone for very long.
Victoria always seems to come out on top in the end since she’s Victor’s golden girl, but his golden boy could still stir up some drama in the meantime.
All it would take are a few blunders – perhaps some caused by Victoria’s prize hire Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) – to convince Victor that Victoria needs Nick’s help.
Victoria might hope to fly solo again if Nikki resigns, but Victor could put up a fight and insist Victoria must share the CEO seat with Nick.
That’s the kind of thing that could prove insulting to Victoria and cause another round of Newman family drama.
If Nick ends up on a power trip as a result, that’ll be even better!
The week of December 26-30 will bring Victor’s cautionary advice for Victoria, so that could already be a sign of bad news.
Victor doesn’t always trust Victoria like he should, so trouble could be brewing.
Do you think Victor will make some updates to the chain of command at Newman Enterprises in the not-too-distant future?
