Hollywood writer Paul Guay was complimentary of his run with the WWE creative team in an interview with Slam Wrestling. "When I was in the writer's room, you wouldn't know if you were being worked or not," Guay said. "Part of it is political because some people want to see the new guy fail, but part if it is just fascinating because with every word that comes out of someone's mouth you're not sure if it's just to see if you're smart."

Guay also recalled the tension that existed between Vince McMahon and Paul Heyman. "They're both very strong personalities that were, when I was there, pulling in different directions, and it was clear that there were personal issues that were affecting what was going on," he said. "When I talked to Paul privately, I was more impressed by what he said than by anyone else I've ever met in the wrestling industry. His ways to pitch stars, to make stars out of guys … I've never encountered anything like it." To read the full article, visit SlamWrestling.com.

Powell's POV: Very good article. The story notes that some of Guay's Hollywood projects include Liar, Liar and The Little Rascals. Although Guay is a fan of wrestling and had good things to say about the industry in general, I can't imagine working in the WWE shark tank. How could there be a productive creative environment when you spend half your time wondering if you're being worked?
