In the E, Vince has the final word, no in or buts

But in TNA, do the bookers have less control than Vince? Who's in charge? Who has the final say? I'm guessing it's easier for the wrestlers do walk all over the TNA booker like how it was in WCW with Hogan. Like who came up with the name MAIN EVENT MAFIA? C'mon now.

Russo is head of creative, but I'd imagine he gets input from some of the higher profile guys (in addition to the writing team of course).

Someone has to have final say, and I highly doubt its one of the boys

I'm pretty sure Russo is that guy. I always heard about how he was better in the WWF than in WCW because he had a filter in McMahon.

Since he was the guy in charge of writing shows, there was no filter so some of his more outlandish ideas got through.

Maybe it's just me, but I can't imagine anyone in TNA being a filter like McMahon was/is.

Probably Hulk Hogan. Doubt he'd even be in TNA if it was any other way.

Hogan just took a paycut! Maybe it was because of this reason!

They pin up pictures of wrestlers and play darts in creative meetings.

I saw a recent picture of Matt Hardy with wash-board abs. Photoshop or steroids?

Depends on who he was standing next to, because they definitely weren't his.
