WWE’s decision to fire RAW head writer Jay Gibson was
not for budget concerns like the other releases. Gibson only
worked with WWE for five months and didn’t actually write himself. Instead, he
got a team of writers together to work on specific storylines or work with
different wrestlers. Gibson himself didn’t have much knowledge about the WWE
product.
Since Gibson doesn’t actually write for RAW, his
release isn’t as important as it appears. There will likely not be any real
changes to TV or storyline direction.
