WWE: Backstage Heat on Raw’s Head Writer?

Prowrestling.net is reporting Raw head writer Brian Gewirtz is currently reciving lots of heat backstage due to the promo he scripted for John Cena on last week’s episode of Raw. On the show as you will remember, John Cena’s promo included several comments mocking announcer Michael Cole, and the general feeling is that the promo did not go over very well with others. It’s being reported that Gewirtz wrote the promo because Vince McMahon has a long history of being hard on Michael Cole, so the promo was meant to be a rib of sorts, but because Vince has been a bit distant from the creative team lately it didn’t pan out with the rest of the backstage crew much like he had planned. It should be noted that John Cena has no heat as a result of the promo as he was simply performing what was given to him.
