TL;DR WWE hired a new writer a few weeks ago, and she went on a podcast and admitted to not watching wrestling and not even knowing the names of some of the people she saw on television. She just got fired.

Good. Soap opera writers who know nothing about wrestling have ruined the show for over a decade now.

Dumbass move to go on a podcast and likely brag about that when it's about your fucking job

Sounds like a shitty hiring/interview process if that got by.

Jesus Christ. Why hire her in the first place then?

According to the article, WWE was aware of her lack of knowledge of wrestling:

where she revealed that WWE did not require her to know anything about the product itself, but said her background in film and comedy writing was enough to qualify her for the role

"They did not require me to know anything about wrestling but I do have a background in film production and comedy writing and theyre like, Perfect. Come on in.

Should fire the person who hired her in the first place too.
I concur. How could you let in a writer who knows nothing about wrestling, much less the current product.

Depending on how long she's been there, it may have been Mark Carano. And he was fired just a few weeks ago too.

Bring back Freddie Prinze Jr as head writer. He's not doing anything else right now.

She definitely wasnt fired for not knowing anything about wrestling. Their job listings say as much, so her saying it openly shouldnt have been an issue either. Her interview didnt expose anything or make them look worse than they already did.

This says more about the WWE than her.

Okay if WWE already knew then I'm not sure why they did it.
