Daniel Bryan & Edge join WWE creative team

[Jmare007]

In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer spoke about the amount of creative control that some of the more experienced members of the WWE roster have over their characters and storylines.

Meltzer notes that Edge and Daniel Bryan have a great deal of influence over the characters and storylines on Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown respectively, even adding that they were part of the writing teams now:

“Edge on Raw and Daniel Bryan on SmackDown both have significant creative influence. The term I was given is they were part of the writing teams of the respective shows right now.”

It is likely that Daniel Bryan Bryan and Edge are just involved in the writing and decision making that involves them and their respective storylines, however, Meltzer does not specify that in his report.



Considering he's days from becoming a father again and he shouldn't risk getting covid at the PC, I'm glad D-Bry went this route.

Get his body rested for that late 2021 comeback after getting a bunch of ideas for other people shut down by Vince and Pritchard

They could have the ghost of Shakespere on he writing team and it won't mean a damn as long as Cokeboy is around

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Smart move, so when nothing changes they can say “see, it’s not as easy as you all think”

Breaking news: Daniel Bryan and Edge dropped from WWE creative team.

Man, that was quick

Expect a lot of guys to suddenly be ripping at their hair and making crazy eyes during their promos on Raw

 

[DaHNIC82]

Long as Vince has final say wont nothing change

Countdown to Daniel Bryan and Edge's departure from the WWE creative team?

Over/Under is, as always, 1 year.

I hope they're getting paid extra for this. Unless they're taking time off from the ring and adding those dates here.

That would be my guess in the case of Bryan but I'm don't think they can replace the dates they have as wrestlers with this gig

Wonder if AJ Styles willcry about Bryan picking on him after his antics about Heyman.

 

[Hey_zeus]

A triple threat. Talk Smack in its prime was one of the best things on E tv. I wonder can he manage

It says right in the report it only applies to their own storylines.

No... it says

Its a horribly written sentence but what it says is that Bryan and Edge are in charge of writing but Meltz didnt specify if decision making towards their own storylines is included in their deals

 

[gdatruth]

those 2 might be the best and most qualified wrestlers to be on the writing on the staff

both have a love for the business, both great on the mic, everything DB touches he turns to gold, edge has really brought the best out of Randy, by most accounts both looking to put over help/younger talent and both have the respect of the lockeroom/Vince

*two weeks later* Daniel Bryan and Edge have been removed from the writing team.
