Why not hire comic book writers?

I just got back from seeing The Avengers (for the second time) and thought to myself, the WWE could gain some more fans by following some of the basic storylines from these movies.

Most of the current writing staff consists of failed soap opera writers who took to WWE because they couldnt find a job. This might have been just fine and dandy during the Attitude era when the company branded themselves as a "Soap Opera for Men."

With super hero movies like The Avengers, Dark Knight, and Spider Man absolutely crushing the competition at the box office, wouldn't it make sense to draw from a pool of writers who make lackluster comics instead of failed soap operas?

IMO, it would totally build up the good vs. evil dynamic the company is trying to produce.
