Pretty sure Dolph Ziggler posts here quite often. Present and accounted for. Or am I fictional character Jeff Winger? |

You know, the joke about creative reading these forums has, very recently, become much more valid and much less of a joke.
Think about how long these forums (I think I'm gonna start talking about THESE FORUMS like Trips does with THIS BUSINESS, btw) have been around at this point, as well as the popularity of Wrestlecrap among internet "smart" fans dating back to the the first real explosion of the IWC, around '03. Think about how many people have posted on this forum, how many people have lurked on this forum. Kids that were 16 and reading Wrestlecrap in 2005 are going on 23 now, and they GREW UP with this stuff, basically. This is how they experienced their fandom, in the age of the internet.
My point? The likelihood that people who have passed through here now WORK at WWE, or already have worked at WWE, is incredibly high. You think the WWE writers and employees don't know about the Batista basketball meme? Shit, some of the younger employees there probably contributed to a photoshop thread or two. It might not be a coincidence that WWE's become so self-aware in recent years as a generation of post-modern, post-ironic, raised-on-internet-humor 'smart marks' start to turn their fandom into actually WORKING for WWE - which, at one point would lead to them probably being made fun of and outcasted on the creative board; but as they grow in numbers, they'll become the new generation of tastemakers and deciders for the company.
tl;dr: Some of the IWC of yesterday have gone on to become the WWE employees of today and tomorrow....how else do you account for the entire existence of Are You Serious?

I'm still amazed on that WWE Corporate Hiarchy chart, they made the Teddy Long tag team joke and one on one with DA UNDAHTAKAH! blew my mind.

I'm one of the greatest members of the four horseman and for all you pathetic smarks to do nothing but mock me really does grind my gears, that jealous pompous asshole Paul Levesque was just jealous of the wonderful wrestling career i had when he mentioned me as "the job guy" on the Four Horseman DVD.
