More on RAW script changes

[Crayo]

- There were reportedly 3 or 4 re-writes of Monday’s RAW from Hartford, between last Friday afternoon and Monday afternoon.
This includes Vince McMahon showing up on Monday afternoon and telling writers to re-do the whole script. WWE officials were very paranoid about going up against Game 7 of the NBA Playoffs.

I always find it fascinating reading about how Vince operates backstage. It must be horrible for writers.

3 or 4 re-writes? Sounds crazy.

What they did worked though, they didn't have THAT big of a drop-off. They opened the show with what looked like a hot angle with big draws on paper, tried to use it to keep viewers interested (will argue people don't care about Triple H in 2013 but w/e it worked) and ended it by making Daniel Bryan look like a boss. Can't complain there.

Yeah, I also heard they had some problems with this Raw but the positives outweight the negatives for me so no harm there. Although it does have to be a bad thing for the writers.

3 or 4 rewrites and 90% of the show was shit we had already seen over the past few weeks.

OH GOD, WHAT DO WE DO. SHIELD, 6 MAN TAG, THAT'S ORIGINAL! AGAINST HELL NO.... ANNNNNNNNNNNND :;draws random face from hat:: ORTON! HE HAS BEEF WITH THEM, RIGHT?

OK, NEXT, LET'S TALK MAIN EVENT. AXEL VS CENA. I KNOW THEY'VE ALREADY MAIN EVENTED, SO WE NEED A UNIQUE ENDING. FUCK THAT, SAME ENDING AS LAST TIME. WE'RE TOO PRESSED FOR TIME!
