In a recent interview with The Masked Man Podcast, former WWE writer Brian Gewirtz discussed Vince McMahon’s idea for the RAW guest host era, Bob Barker not liking the script, and more. The highlights below:
Brian Gewirtz on Vince McMahon’s idea for the RAW guest host era in WWE:
“Vince always shoots for the stars. You got to give him credit. When The Network came out, I think the phrase was ‘like Netflix, only better.’ Whoa, that is quite a bold claim. I think similarly when we were doing the guest host era, he said something backstage like, ‘This will be like Saturday Night Live, only better.’ And all of us are like, ‘No, this isn’t going to be,’ I mean, maybe the [Joe] Piscopo era before Eddie Murphy? But I don’t think this is going to be better in any sense of the word.”
