YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!!!!
Apparently, if the reports going around are true, WWE is hiring or has already officially hired Mick Foley's son, Dewey, as a creative writer. As of right now, it's being reported that he'll begin work early next year as a creative assistant; however, it isn't a "full time" position at this point and will depend upon how much he impresses top officials.
It is worth noting that Dewey has been running a blog with his own WWE Creative ideas but that blog is now private. It's pretty interesting because Dewey's old man has been talking a lotta shit about the product all year and Dewey himself went on a rant last year taking shots at WWE saying:
"Sorry people who know much about wrestling, but this company right now is in some serious s--t. This is really bad for their company because one or two individuals truly believe that their opinions reign much higher over the millions and millions of people who watch their show religiously on a weekly basis. It's such a horrible feeling obviously because it hits close to home. You have these guys who work their asses off 320+ days a year, who barely see their loved ones, and they get completely disrespected and disregarded because Triple f--king H thinks they're 'too small' or not star material. My dad made your ass, and people told my dad all his life that he would amount to nothing. So Triple H should know from experience that the people that work their asses off and that are told that they are worthless, are the ones that make the company the best it can be. Without my dad, Triple H is just a mid-carder. My dad went out of his way to make sure that he turned Triple H into the intimidating, scary, cerebral assassin, son of a b---h that he has become. So it's about time that people who deserve to be the best are given the opportunity to show it. WWE is a f--king dictatorship and it is just truly a shame."
All the "too small" and "not star material" stuff seems more along the lines of Vince's thinking rather than Triple H's, based on much of the talent that WWE has signed to NXT the past few years because so very few of them have the super heroic, man among men look Vince has been known to prize.
At any rate, I thought this was kinda interesting and, if true, I wonder how much influence this kid could have. My initial gut reaction is that Foley will be frustrated because WWE, for all intents and purposes, genuinely is a dictatorship and whatever ultimately goes down on our televisions each week is decided up on by Vincent Kennedy McMahon.
