The E treats their wrasslers like shyt, you think a writer is different? 
Honestly, I wouldn’t expect them to get a kickback from the Network, but they SHOULD get on screen credit. and if a writer comes up with something that makes money they should get a small percentage of merch sold, or at least a bonus.

Non top stars get those things paid for them, Cena always had his stuff taken care of.
Nobody pimps their employees like Vince McMahon.
And you still got people dying to work for him. Wrestlers don't get insurance or travel expenses, writers don't get credits or residuals.
Wouldn't surprise me if he got kids out there putting the ring together and stringing lights cause they cheap labor.
That dude is a bonafide slave driver
Smackdown's ratings continue to improve so nobody really cares about this shyt, and the only reason Yang is trying to raise hell about it is because he's about to fade into oblivion unless Biden offers him a position.

The writing team hasn't exactly been making quality storylines throughout the years either so

Raw and Smackdown writers do the bare minimum n should get compensated like that fukk em
This is a troll thread
A bigger surprise would be to find an employee that Vince DOESN'T pimp and treat like a complete piece of shyt.
Punk was 100% right and justified in what he did and the WWE marks hate him because they can't handle the truth.

I'm glad they passed over my ass for that Assistant Writer gig. 
It's one thing to toil for long ass hours over storylines, plot points and promos you know will get bushed the day of a show by your control freak of a boss that only writes material for his warped sensibilities, but to not be fairly compensated for the work you did do or managed to get on screen?

Pretty sure Vince has been having women sign NDAs since the 1980s.

What appears on the programs that they actually wrote? Vince bushes all their ideas and anything that ends up being good is because the talent themselves wrote it.
