#4 WWE fires lead writer for Raw
WWE has released another one of its writers, and this time it was Raw's lead writer, Ryan Callahan. According to reports, there are 'home' writers and 'road' writers for both Raw and SmackDown Live. The 'road' writers travel to each show with the roster. The report goes on to say that Callahan's firing allegedly had nothing to do with ratings, viewership or storylines, but rather with ongoing issues between him and the lead writer for Raw, David Kapoor.
Apparently, 'Kapoor felt that Callahan took creative changes a little too personally' and felt Callahan 'was difficult to work with', which didn't set a 'good example for the rest of the writing team.' The change was also reportedly made on Thursday, May 2. The report also revealed that Callahan had also been helping out with SmackDown recently and that he and Kapoor had been 'butting heads a lot often.
