If WWE Superstars work under pressure, so does everyone else. Especially the writers. Considering it’s a sports entertainment company, the entertainment part is crucial.

Unfortunately, there are times when the Superstars themselves do not enjoy the promo they’re cutting, let alone the fans. This is what happened when former writer Dave Schilling wrote a promo involving FTR and Shawn Michaels. But, Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler apparently did not enjoy it at all.

Schilling detailed how he was made fun of for the promo and no one offered to help him to make it better. According to him, the WWE writers’ room is a “hostile or uncooperative work environment.”

Currently, FTR is signed to AEW.

It’s well-known that Vince McMahon is a perfectionist. As a result, he expects his product to be perfect as well. If he doesn’t like a script, he ensures to get it changed before the show starts. There have been times when The Big Man hadn’t confirmed the script until the show was almost knocking on the door.
