Intern working at WWE

An intern working for the WWE is doing an Ask Me Anything on Reddit at the moment, could be interesting.

Ask me anything. I will answer any and all questions that don't violate the contracts I signed getting this internship. I love my job too much Here is a photo of my computer screen. http://i.imgur.com/wGqm4.jpg Let me know if you need anything else, but this should suffice I think. I don't want to post any photos of me or too many of the building, as that is frowned upon. This is my first AMA, so I'm not sure exactly how much proof you guys will need.

Anyways, I will have a reddit tab open on my work computer all day so I should be able to answer most any question that doesn't violate my contracts (Insider trading, storyline stuff, etc.) A cool part of my job is that I find out plans for the WWE way in advance, so I might be able to shed some light on things such as the 1000th RAW or Summerslam, as long as they aren't spoilers If I'm missing anything, please let me know (politely), I hope to give an informative and entertaining AMA.

Looks like someone didnt want him doing it, every response has been deleted.

RE: Mistaken title switches...

A few years back, there was a house show in Paris where the divas title switched by mistake (I think it was Melina and Mickie involved). One of them won the title early in the night but reports said there was obviously a screw up, and later that night, they did a rematch and switched the title straight back.

There was something like this with Edge's very first Intercontinental title reign, I think it was Jeff Jarrett who he beat in Toronto. Some sort of miscommunication between the workers and the booker or something, where neither man seemed to know what exactly the story with the finish was. I can't remember exactly but he only had the belt a night I think.

No that's not true at all, the WWE were in his hometown and it with Jarrett's support they had him go over and win the title in his hometown.

Of course part of the agreement was he had to drop the title back to Jarrett as soon as possible.

Yeah, I guess they got wind of it, hopefully he didn't get sacked over it.

From what I read of it:

-HHH is there every Wednesday and is supposed to be really sound.

-There is a huge promo airing on the 1000th Raw that will relate to a new star, he said this in response to a question about Dean Ambrose so hopefully it's him.

-His job is to basically look through all the dirtsheets, analyse the trends of competitors and look at the ways other companies are marketing their product.

According to Adam Copeland, there was some confusion leading into the match and afterward about should he have been given the title and when were they going to take it back off of him. So I think there is some element of truth in what I was saying.

So as much as they 'dont care' about dirtsheets, they care enough to employ someone to watch them. :rolleyes:

Well, it's an intern, they have to saddle the guy with something.

Which shouldn't take long if they find out he's leaking information to the dreaded interwebz!!

This guy clearly doesn't want to keep his job - thankfully for him he won't be losing any money if he is fired (interns dont get paid)

I'm skeptical about that guy, the photo of his computer screen proves nothing, reckon it's just some teenager sitting at home with too much time on his hands.

I dunno, why would they want it deleted if there wasnt genuine leaking of ideas?

Well we don't know if WWE requested those comments be deleted, maybe reddit deleted them all out of fear of WWE getting on their backs. But nevertheless, imitating an employee is a major violation in WWE's eyes.

here is a list of questions and his answers, first few answers don't match up with the questions but its pretty easy to follow, seems wwe really follow the likes of tna, roh, ufc and boxing trends alot http://www.reddit.com/r/tabled/comments/vppnu/

Here's another one from a former employee, this one seems much more legit:
