In an effort to streamline our creative writing process for television, we have consolidated both teams from Raw and SmackDown into one group, led by Bruce Prichard. Paul Heyman will concentrate on his role as an in-ring performer.

Considering RAW's, uh, quality, I'm debating on whether this is really a bad thing.

[Welfare Willis]

So, a lot more impressions of wrestlers on Raw and Smackdown.



Vince is the true head here. Nothing is going to really change until Vince allows it to happen.

[ayumidah]

welp.

Well, at least Heyman had a core group of guys he managed to convince Management to do more with that got successful, right?

...Right?


....guys?

The sinking ratings had to be what did Heyman in. Interesting that they're adding to Prichard's workload instead of looking for someone else. Problem is WWE seem afraid to look outside the same circle of people.

Charlotte getting too much TV time?

Here's your monkey's paw solution. All the women's matches are now 90 seconds!

Well I assume Ricochet and Cedric Alexander will be asking for their releases in the future

(Not like they were being used anyway even with Heyman begging for them to have screentime)

In the end maybe this will help streamline the writing process, issue is, the writing process has still proven to be quite shit. Though Smackdown has been way easier to watch imo, maybe they can give some of that to RAW because that has been dreadful, and I think you can change up as much writing as you want, that third hour is a god damn albatross to try and get over.

[Tiger Millionaire]

Well, you know.

Welp hope the ladies of the main roster enjoyed their time because it is back to 3min matches.

To be fair, Prichard has put Bayley in long matches recently, and Sonya's been getting some decent time.

This isn’t good news. This isn’t bad news. It’s just news.

Well, I'd put in for the job but they probably wouldn't like my salary demands.

Prichard is a Vince toadie and justify fire is wet if Vince told him to say it.

[Pushed to the Moon]

Gives Heyman more time to focus on that one promo he's been doing for the last 8 years.

Less cuckolding? More cuckolding?

While I get it's a meme that Pritchard hates booking the girls, on Smackdown, especially lately, it feels like the girls have been getting some substancial time. Evans/Deville had two solid weeks, and the tag titles/Bayley have also been getting solid match time, even main eventing last week. 

That being said, who knows if that will last...

[brettappedout (BLM)]

ugh..not good. I think Heyman has been doing a pretty good job and RAW has been much more interesting than SD imo.

Also 20 fake bucks on Nia beating Asuka now.

How does Brother Love keep getting these gigs? Dude must kiss 100% of the ass and not just 97% like those other scrubs.
