t is also alleged that Callahan pitched a storyline where Muslim wrestler, Mansoor, would be revealed to have been "behind the 9/11 attacks." When Abrahams and other writers brought concerns regarding this to WWE Vice President Christine Lubrano, she allegedly responded, “Wacky things are said in the writer’s room all the time!” and “I know but look at the waves we’re making in the company. Four years ago, no woman worked on the writer’s team!” Lubrano is also alleged to have said, "I heard it was a joke" regarding Callahan's comments.

I mean that’s just fucking stupid lmao. If he was behind the 9/11 attacks and admitted it on television he would’ve been legitimately arrested on the spot. I feel like they weren’t being serious.

 

[Sabretooth]

And also when 9/11 happened he was 6

 

[Chris]

No shit they weren't being serious lol that doesn't make it better

 

[Sabretooth]

No shit they weren't being serious lol that doesn't make it better

Well these responses seem to suggest you guys think it was serious

 

[Chris]

If that's how you interpret it I can't help you and it's probably not worth explaining why it's something people shouldn't be joking about when discussing writing suggestions for Muslims bc if it isn't a serious suggestion then I doubt you'd find an issue with it anyway

You missed the best part. It was apart of a love angle.

“ Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff, the only black writers on the team, at the time, were tasked to pitch a love storyline between wrestlers Aaliyah, Mansoor, and Angel Garza, who are both Muslim).

Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff pitched that Mansoor has a secret that he’s keeping from Aaliyah.

CALLAHAN disagreed with the secret Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff wanted for the character.

Instead, CALLAHAN suggested, “how about his secret is he’s behind the 9/11 attacks?”

Ms. Sylvers nervously laughed and said, “let’s not do that. Let’s talk about the other part of the pitch.”

CALLAHAN said, “Oh, I guess you’re the lead writer now.”

Ms. Sylvers again laughed nervously, and said, “for just this moment so we can talk about something else.”

Following this, whenever a writer asked CALLAHAN a question, he would reply, “ask [Ms. Sylvers], she’s the lead writer now.””

A love angle? I wonder who’s idea that was

 

[Deezy]

A writing room pitching ideas that could get heat in a business that's based off playing off accentuated basics.

Being shocked they come up with shit like this is hilarious......only thing that's gonna happen is this woman never being allowed in another writing room anywhere.

Good job, she just blackballed herself.
