Hey all. Finally got round to posting on here. Just wanted to bring your attention something I got shown by a buddy of mine, John Canton. If you don't know him, he has his own site where he writes about wrestling, mainly WWE. This is his site- www.thejohnreport.net

 

Anyway, the following is a blog that's been started by a former creative team member with the WWE who was only recently released. He says he is going to write about Raw every week and also answer questions and

talk about general WWE related stuff. There's some interesting stuff in there. Reveals a lot about Vince and his views, and the inner workings of the creative team. Some eyebrow raising stuff too. Give it a read and tell us what you think :)

I enjoyed reading the latest column on the royal rumble. Good find.

Thanks for the links Matt, that blog from the former creative team member is very interesting, can't wait to see his Royal Rumble predictions next week and to see what he says about the possibility of Jericho returning in it. It was also very interesting reading that WWE was having a new cage being made until it got too expensive and this guy writing the blog was actually the guy who wrote Miz's victory speech which he actually opposed Vince to try and get the green light for it and then talked him into allowing it to go ahead.

The John Report sounds like it should be reserved for someone journaling on their bowel movements.

That's an intentional double-meaning. The guy's been writing for over a decade and has always called his column that. There was a time when his site (The Wrestling Oratory) would have around ten or fifteen highly readable columns up per week, and the joke was that you would print his off for toilet reading.

A few more bits n'pieces from before the blog was taken down....

 

The storyline between Daniel Bryan and The Bella Twins was actually first pitched by The Bella's. WWE has planned to run with a similar storyline for Evan Bourne before he was injured.

 

* There was talk that Drew McIntyre would be the man to take out the Undertaker before it was changed to Nexus.

 

* On the Undertaker, the plan right now is for him to wrestle Wade Barrett at WrestleMania 27, but of course this could change

 

* Vince McMahon feels that powerhouse Skip Sheffield could become a top babyface behind John Cena.

 

* On the Uso's WWE introduction and promo, Vince McMahon didn't understand the hip hop culture and the appeal of the tag-team. The original idea for the Uso's was to present them as the opposite of what you would expect from a Samoan superstar - intelligent, educated and wearing boots while competing.

 

 

Interesting about Skip Sheffield.

Has the whole website and all blogs been taken off or is it just the latest stuff he posted?
