The promos would be gawdly.

"Be sure to tell CM Punk that this isn't about the title, it's about me hurting his people and messing with his world. I want you tell that fool he ain't man enough to step into the ring with Dean Ambrose. Tell him that!"

Del Rio smuggling work through his connect that turns out to be D Bry through his beard without Kane's knowledge and it turns out Ryback was the top customer which then incites a turf war between American wrestlers vs. non American wrestlers which leads to Cena/Punk/Bryan/Kane/Swagger vs, ADR/Sheams/Ceserio/Barrett/Kofi while Orton lingers over all to snatch that good product from the co-op

"Now look, check it, it's simple, it's simple. See this?

This the kingpin, a'ight? And he the man. You get the other dude's king, you got the game. But he trying to get your king too, so you gotta protect it. Now, the king, he move one space any direction he damn choose, 'cause he's the king. Like this, this, this, a'ight? But he ain't got no hustle. But the rest of these motherfukkers on the team, they got his back. And they run so deep, he really ain't gotta do shyt.

"You see this?

This the queen. She smart, she fast. She move any way she want, as far as she want. And she is the go-get-shyt-done piece."

"These right here

these are the pawns. They like the soldiers. They move like this, one space forward only. Except when they fight, then it's like this. And they like the front lines, they be out in the field."

"So how do you get to be the king?"

"It ain't like that. See, the king stay the king, a'ight? Everything stay who he is. Except for the pawns. Now, if the pawn make it all the way down to the other dude's side, he get to be queen. And like I said, the queen ain't no bytch. She got all the moves."

"Look, the pawns, man, in the game, they get capped quick. They be out the game early."

"Unless they some smart-ass pawns."

:heh: those muthafukkers would quit after a week dealing with Vince and constant changing of his mind and coke laced anger and fukkery

This. It's an idea i could get behind but it would never work in wwe. it would interesting to see some promotion try something like that tho.

When people say this, they dont understand the difference. Writers for tv shows write one hour episodes at 22 a season. Since seasons overlap in a year, they're roughly responsible for a lil over 30 hours of scripts for a calendar year, and they get mad long breaks to recharge their creative energy between seasons.

WWE writers are responsible for 3 hours of LIVE television each week, per show, pretty much every week out of the year with no breaks. Thats well over 150 hours of television for EACH show (SD is a lil lighter since its 2hrs). Thats an inhuman workload compared to other scripted shows. Plus there are mad variables to deal with --- live nature of broadcasts, veto power from wrestlers, having to change storylines on a dime due to injuries, etc, etc. WWE writers dont receive anywhere near the credit they deserve.
