Jericho in TNA? God, and I thought jobbing to Hunter was bad. Being the bitch of some pissant company's no way to go.

But yeah, no confirmation that he's fired or quitting. He may be (There were talks about contract renewal), but we don't know this yet. I'm going to wait until they say he's not with the WWE before I worry.

So why not hire from the wrestling world? There are hundreds of promoters who have experience in scripting matches and story arcs. We have a couple of promoters on these boards. Experience in the wrestling world trumps experience in the TV world when it comes to this kind of writing. Therefore, her experience is pretty moot, and she's as poor a match as Brock Lesnar as the woman's champ.

I don't understand either why they are hiring outside the wrestling world. But for some reason Vince and company have been hiring writers from sitcoms and soap operas. I guess they figure they can write better TV than people that just know wrestling. I don't agree with it, but, hey whatever floats Vince's boat until he realizes that wrestling fans actually want to see wrestling and high spots instead of pregnancy angles.

Soap operas at least make a bit more sense. I mean, this is a Y chromosone soap opera. But sitcoms? Nickelodeon?

I think Vince will keep doing the drama people don't want to see, because they seem to keep watching it.

He's probably just taking some time off. I mean Jericho has been lucky to have not been seriously hurt for an extended period of time, so this could be a quick time off for the Ayatollah

No seriously, there are obviously requirements that you have to have a certain amount of flexibility. But wouldn't the one about actually knowing about the product be the one requirement that you wouldn't budge on? If it was me, I would definitely rather have an applicant who knows wrestling with, say, 6 months writing experience instead of the guy with 3 years experience as a writer but who's totally clueless about wrestling.

I mean, if you were hiring for a sports magazine, would you even consider the writer who knows fuck-all about sports but spent 5 years writing for Better Homes & Gardens? This isn't directed towards you, its more that I can't believe this is the WWE's hiring strategy. It shows a real stupidity at the top of the writing team (**stephanie **) a general lack of direction within the company. I'd be pissed if I was a stock holder.

Me?!?! Optimistic?!?! Ha! I've been called a lot of things before but never that.

I was just regurgitating (sp?) info that was fed to me in a class I took right before I got my degree. Forget what it was actually titled but basically they taught you how to get your resume ready and how to interview, and that was one of the things that stuck with me.

Yea, I heard Jericho might leave a while back because he didn't resign. I think Heyman might be in the same boat as well

Good for Y2J though. There's really nothing left for him in the WWE. They've just left in hanging around in the mid-cards for so long that he'll never be viewed as a main eventer again. He's already won all the Titles anyway and probably won't be WWE Champion again, so it's for the best.

Now here's someone TNA can use right away cause he wouldn't be looked at as a fired WWE reject.

Hmm...dunno about the Nick writer thing. They also have had a few original shows on their "@ Nite" lineup that they show afterwards. Maybe she was the writer for those shows. they've also had some controversies in the past (Chyna on the Kids Choice Awards being under fire because she posed for Playboy a bit before that). I'll wait until we actually see what happens before I make a judgment on that one.

Jericho, while I don't like it either, might be better off if he did leave, because he keeps getting buried anyway, and I don't think him being a "rock star" will allow him to be a crediable champ, regardless of how much it pains me to say that.

I would never want to write for the WWE. What's the point? So I can have my ideas shot down or changed 500 times a week. I would just be pissed off every single day.

I hope Jericho goes on to do better things, even though he's one reason i watch Raw.But ill'd rather see him somewhere where he wont get treated like shit and given rubbish storylines by writers who no nothing about WWE.I've been saying loads of times for these wrestlers to do something else and stand up for themselves instead of letting the WWE treat them like crap, jericho seems to be the first to do it.Good luck to him.

Jericho and the word main eventer should be used loosely as he hasn't been one until now for 3 years.

I was actually talking about the writers position comment LC made.

But on the Jericho thing: I said it in the past that its completely baffling how the WWE misuses him. He is constantly appearing on shows like Best Week Ever and he always kills on Conan. People in the mainstream media love him and realize what a funny, entertaining guy he is. So when the rest of the free world gets that Jericho is a major talent and the WWE doesn't maybe it is time for him to move on.

According to sources, Chris Jericho is currently sitting on a contract extension that was issued by WWE. Although there is a strong belief that he will eventually sign the deal (as of a few days ago, he had not done so), WWE has to assume the worst and has booked post-Summerslam angles without Chris Jericho in mind. Should he return a signed contract, WWE will obviously work him back into the picture.

While reports suggesting he's quitting the company after Summerslam are exaggerated, he does have a number of Fozzy dates that will interfere with his pro wrestling schedule. Thus, even if he does renew his contract, he will still miss a number of post-Summerslam editions of RAW.
Sign that damn thing Jericho!
