WHAT IN THE WRESTLING WORLD

It sounds more similar to vince Russo and Jim cornett beingthe head writers back in the day vince will still have final overall say so not much will change unless they are used as on air authority figures too which I hope not

Chris Sully

The wrestling landscape is already changing thats for sure....

Ben Williams

I'm wondering if this has been done because Vince will be wanting to look more at the XFL in the coming months. Regardless, if they have good ideas to implement and will listen to what the performers themselves have to say rather than dictate Vince's law, I'm all for it.

Graham Williams

VKM will ultimately just meddle and try and micro manage them to the extent their storylines will be passed by him. It might benefit writers as they will report to a relatively normal person, but the creative storylines will still come back down the line. I think HHH will secretly see this as a slap in the face I wouldn’t trust Bischoff either. He will have thoughts on getting up the WWE Corporate ladder. He’s not to be trusted Expect Bischoff will be on the SmackDown premiere. I believe Heyman should bring back Arn Anderson or Lobby VKM for Arn

not quite sure yet. i want to see at least a month’s worth of work before i make my judgement. also if Vince wants the ratings to improve correctly, for his sake, he must allow Paul & Eric to do what’s best for the shows.

RIP your day off

I agree HHH should be taking over these positions. He's proved he can put on a good product today in NXT.

Great news IF Vinnie Mac listens to their ideas , implements them, and gives both men time to fix the WWE.

Interesting because both of them do not strike me as the type to lead in the shadows. Haymen maybe but they both like their TV time

Also, this may be wishful thinking, but it almost seems like VKM could be looking for established figures in the business he can trust to transition creative to. Pure speculation, of course.

Donald Gold

Early stories say they are not on air personalities, which is a good thing, obviously.

Donald Gold

it’s interesting and I hope we see big changes to both shows but at the end of the day Vince is still in charge of making the final decisions

Having 2 distinct styles for different shows is a great idea, and Bischoff/Heyman are very different. However, will they be disciplined enough to stick with the plan? I'm intrigued, even borderline excited.

Donald Gold

Depends on how much control they get. Are they supposed to be authority figures or just behind the scenes?

So out of left field. In theory I’m digging the idea of it if it means an actual internal competition as such between Paul and Eric to create the best product. But theory and reality - who knows what the legit power dynamic will be
