Who writes the promos?

Recommended Posts

Scott Steiner: "Oh yeah....well...we'll see who's the bitch!"

 

Shane McMahon: "Oh yeah...well....screw YOU!"

 

Did someone get paid to write that, or do the performers have to come up with their own stuff?

Very few can do good adlibs and shit...Witness Jericho and Austin last night...they played smartly off the missing of catching the can

The workers are basically "given" the promos now - it's a primary complaint of the guys who are getting mic time.

 

The old "Attitude" formula was to give the guys an outline of "what should be said", then let them go out there and wing it - while getting the main topics over in the process. The workers didn't have a tight script to work with, so it was easier to gauge the fan's response to the promo.

Well, I guess we now know that Steiner's "famous" WCW promos weren't all ad-lib.
