The Young and the Restless spoilers: Victor loses a company to Aristotle Dumas?
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Another day, another theory to unpack involving The Young and the Restless' Aristotle Dumas. Despite us speculating that the mystery business tycoon is either Cane Ashby or Tucker McCall (our best guess being the former), Aristotle's real identity is still a closely guarded secret that only Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) knows the truth about. Additionally, while it's been stated by Amanda and Billy (Jason Thompson) that Aristotle is going after Chancellor, we have no way of knowing if that's truly the case until Aristotle makes his move. Zeroing in on this point about Chancellor, it's crossed our mind that there's a possibility that Aristotle isn't going after the company, but merely putting that rumor out there to provide a nice distraction. Perhaps Aristotle wants Victor (Eric Braeden) so focused on protecting Chancellor from a hostile takeover and keeping Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) at the helm of the large corporation, that Victor lets his defenses down when it comes to his other businesses — Newman Enterprises and by extension, Newman Media. Is the crown jewel of the Newman patriarch's legacy under attack? Even if Chancellor is really what Aristotle is after, who's to say that he won't settle for Newman Enterprises or Newman Media as a consolation prize of epic proportions? Again, Victor is so focused on protecting Chancellor and so distracted by his feud with Jack (Peter Bergman) and quest to break up Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Claire (Hayley Erin), that it's hard to imagine he has been paying as close attention to the company he built from the ground up. When you add the fact that Michael (Christian LeBlanc) is no longer working for Victor, doing his dirty work while protecting him, Victor may be a bit more vulnerable to attack these days than he was previously. Now, to be fair, we'll happily acknowledge that Victor has a winning track record in business that should squash any doubt that he'll beat Aristotle. Plus, Victor has Victoria (Amelia Heinle), Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Adam (Mark Grossman) to have his back in corporate combat. However, Victor was once dealt a mighty blow thanks to the Prentiss family. Additionally, Victoria has a lot on her mind lately with Cole's (J. Eddie Peck) health and her daughter's love life, Nick is busy denying his resurgence of romantic feelings for Sharon (Sharon Case) and Adam is trying to manage being Victor's pitbull while being the 'new man' he's promised to be for Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan). Having said all that, with Victor having been a thorn in the side of many Genoa City residents recently, we think he may be owed a serving of humble pie, served courtesy of Aristotle. Whether that be Aristotle hostilely taking over Chancellor or acquiring a Newman brand, we can imagine Victor suffering a setback. But we should note, even if one of our theories proves true this go-around and Victor loses a battle with Aristotle, The Mustache will likely ultimately win the war. New episodes of The Young and the Restless air weekdays on CBS. Episodes become available to stream on Paramount Plus the next day.

What Happened Today On Young and the Restless May 27? Victor's Wrath Builds
The Young and the Restless recap for Tuesday, May 27 sees Victor readying for war, Michael struggling after taking a step back, and Chelsea feeling caught in the middle. Nick (Joshua Morrow) stopped by the Newman Ranch hoping for a quiet breakfast with his mother, but instead walked into a storm brewing just below the surface. Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) wasted no time letting him know that Michael (Christian LeBlanc) had resigned as Victor's (Eric Braeden) attorney the night before. For Nick, that set off alarm bell. Victor and Michael shared more than just a professional relationship. Michael was family in Victor's eyes, and his sudden departure could only mean serious fallout was coming. Worried, Nikki feared Victor would turn his fury toward Jack (Peter Bergman), blaming him for Michael's decision. Nick wasn't so sure Jack needed to do anything to provoke Victor—his father had never needed a reason to go after the Abbotts. Still, Nick promised to talk to his father and try to defuse whatever fire was already starting to spread. MORE: Find out what's coming up on Y&R. Over at Newman Media, Adam (Mark Grossman) found himself on the receiving end of Victor's latest power move. The elder Newman barged in, brushing aside talk about Michael's resignation to focus on something else entirely – why Adam hadn't yet launched a media takedown of Billy Abbott. Adam tried to play it cool, assuring Victor that everything was under control. But Victor wasn't buying it. He made it crystal clear: Adam worked for him, not Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan), and if Adam wouldn't go after Billy, he'd find someone who would. The threat hung in the air long after Victor stormed out. Chelsea, sensing the tension, confronted Adam about the plan. When Adam confessed, she begged him not to drag her into another Newman war. But Victor's ultimatum left little room for compromise—and Adam was starting to think a manufactured scandal might be the only way out. Chelsea's return to Newman Media was supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, she was caught in the middle of another Newman family feud. As Adam revealed just how far Victor was willing to go to get his way, Chelsea began to fear her first day might also be her last. She urged Adam to stand his ground, but he made it clear—if he didn't act, Victor would replace him and still go after Billy. Left with no good options, Adam hatched a risky plan: if there's no scandal to distract Victor, maybe it's time they created one. Meanwhile, Michael tried to enjoy a peaceful breakfast with Lauren (Tracey Bregman), but guilt clung to him like a shadow. Lauren reminded him this was his first day of freedom and that choosing her over Victor had been the right call. Still, Michael couldn't shake the feeling that he'd left the Newmans – and especially Victor – exposed. When Nick and Nikki later joined them, the tension only deepened as Victor arrived. Michael stayed put, refusing to be chased out, though he knew the fallout had only just begun. With Michael out and Adam hesitating, Victor turned to Nick for backup. Over breakfast, he laid it out plainly: a war was coming, and he expected his son's loyalty. Nick, torn between caution and family duty, could only brace for impact. Victor wasn't going to let anyone (especially the Abbotts) walk away unscathed.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Will Victor and Adam Take Down Billy for Good?
The drama in The Young and the Restless hits boiling point on Tuesday, May 27, as the Newman family launches a strategic attack against Billy Abbott. Meanwhile, new power plays, old loyalties, and shaky decisions begin to threaten the balance in Genoa City. Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) are joining forces to strike back at Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), reigniting the rivalry between Newman Media and Abbott Communications. Though Billy's latest maneuver—teaming up with Aristotle Dumas—may seem like a business move, it's clear Victor sees it as a threat to his wife's legacy. Victor, who previously swooped in and handed Chancellor over to Nikki, isn't about to let Dumas or Billy undo that gift. As expected, he's pulling strings and planning retaliation—with zero concern for consequences. Fans can expect Newman Media to unleash a new smear campaign targeting Billy. What secrets will they expose this time? Meanwhile, Dumas's name surfaces again when Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) confronts Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan). Amanda was overheard talking to the mysterious billionaire, raising questions about his true motives. While Amanda insists Dumas respects Lily, Devon (Bryton James), and Nate (Sean Dominic), Lily remains skeptical. Will Amanda be able to change her mind? Elsewhere, Lauren Fenmore (Tracey E. Bregman) remains uneasy about Michael Baldwin's (Christian LeBlanc) recent decision to resign from working with Victor. Though he claimed he was choosing her over Victor's risky assignments, Lauren suspects this might not be the end. Given Michael's history of returning to Victor's side, will he stick to his word this time? With secrets surfacing and loyalties shifting, the May 27 episode promises explosive developments in Genoa City. Will Victor's latest scheme succeed, or will Billy find a way to fight back? Can Amanda convince Lily that Dumas is trustworthy? And is Michael really done with Victor for good—or just until the next call? Fans won't want to miss what happens next.
