lol at Stephanie McMahon
 
Stephanie is now talking about revising contracts that would disallow creative team members to speak out publicly and to specifically state that they don't have any ownership to their ideas. She also wants their contracts to ban them from being able to talk publicly after they are no longer with the company, about their experience with the company, or talk about the impressions of talent or anyone they met in the company. This would keep someone from going to TNA and sharing their WWE ideas.


grabbed this bit from wrestling-edge.com who probably stole it from somewhere else.

Basically she wants contracts to own peoples brains FOREVER

Kane Knight 10-23-2007 02:57 PM

If true, that's completely insane. And 200 writers will be queued up for the next open spot.

IC Champion 10-23-2007 03:03 PM

Stephani sure knows what she's doing, I can't wait until she's in charge.

That is insane, I can't even beleive that, commom sence tells me not to, however I know better, and Stephanie isn't exactly playing with full deck.

BigDaddyCool 10-23-2007 03:23 PM

She be dum.

Corkscrewed 10-23-2007 03:36 PM

I don't get it. She thinks the writers have great ideas that other wrestling feds can steal to use against the WWE and have success???? :?:

Common sense tells me it's bullshit.

Reality tells me that common sense has little bearing on the wrestling world.

I hope to God it's not true though.

Unless she uses it to hire and fire Alienoid.

Not quite.

She's looking for control.

Ideas pitched to WWE cannot be pitched elsewhere after you've left the company. Discussion of talent outside of WWE would be off limits. It's like the usual no compete clauses, except you're signing away the rights to any idea you pitch, and you can't discuss the company's operations, period.

Full Story:

Source - Wrestling Observer Newsletter

Stephanie McMahon blew up before the No Mercy pay-per-view a few weeks ago regarding Chris Jericho being revealed as the SAVEUS campaign. She was really interested in keeping the return a surprise, thus was very upset it leaked. Her reaction was to run all the company cell phone records of the writing team as well as do a forensic check of their computers and e-mails.

This is not the first time this has happened, as events have lead to this in the past, but they did not find a guilty party. Some writers were using their company cell phones to make excessive private calls and they go reamed for it. Several of the writers were said to be upset because they have been under added stress recently with having to completely re-write the No Mercy pay-per-view one week before the show due to John Cena being injured. They felt it was not fair they were getting blamed for the information being leaked.

lol, OR the fans could have figured it out from it being pretty obvious since, I don't know, the first video?!

:lol: I'm calling bullshit.

Buuuut...Let's assume it is true: How clueless are they if they actually believe the only way people could have come to the conclusion of Jericho is if a writer leaked it?

Honestly though, would it not surprise you if it was true?

Kane Knight 10-23-2007 08:47 PM

It would surprise me. This strikes me as too extreme, even for a bunch of whacked out carnies.

Destor and The One seem believable compared to this story.

I could see a spin off.

Carnie Scene Investigation: INTRAWEB LEEKS11!11

IC Champion 10-23-2007 09:10 PM

Thats fucked up, even by carnie standards.

What Who Song would work for that spinoff?

Come to think of it, I really could see that kind of investigation happening.

Stephanie: This is an inside job. There's only one man for the job....

Shadow in the hallway: You called me, Mrs Levesque?

Stephanie: Yes I did, Brock. I've got a case for you....

WWE: We own your imagination.

Kane Knight 10-23-2007 10:09 PM

Anyone here see Dinosaurs?

WWE should start running ads replacing "WESAYSO" With WWE.

:wtf:

Stress? I would have thought they' be sitting around a table picking names out of a hat to see who wins and loses, judging by the crap thats been on tv the last lot of years. Its like the old wcw days were storylines were crapped out 5 mins before airtime.

Avenger 10-23-2007 10:35 PM

If the point of these new contracts is to stop angles being leaked on the internet before they hit WWE programming then I completely agree with the principle.

Yes, that's rather obvious, KK. ;) I think I was being facetious.

What are YOU talking about, KK!! It's from the almighty Dave Meltzer. Everything he says is completly true, and cannot ever be questioned otherwise! :shifty:

Sooo...





It's definitely Jericho?

I could assume you were being facetious, Corky, and risk being wrong, or I could look at the odds that you were being facetious in a board full of some of the stupidest motherfuckers to have ever drawn breath, realise the odds are long against, and go with the probability of you being that dense.

BigDaddyCool 10-24-2007 02:09 PM

I love Steph. She is that one bitch that you work for that throughs a fit whenever you do something she doesn't like. So to get revenge she just starts piling more crap on you to do instead of firing you, but constantly threatens to fire you. And the only reason she doesn't fire you is because then she can't boss you around any more.
