It can be a difficult task and requires some rather intelligent and well prepared people. Now WWE is looking for someone else to join the ranks of their brain trust.

Opinion: This is something that WWE has to do every so often and it is nice to see the company bringing in some fresh ideas. At the same time, there is very little mentioned about having knowledge about wrestling itself, which is rather fascinating in a lot of ways. That being said, whatever WWE is doing at the moment continues to work so why not stick with the successful plan?
