The show was created by Jeff Chiang and Nahnatchka Khan, the sister of WWE president and chief revenue Nick Khan, one of the most powerful people in professional wrestling. Also included in its production is former WWE writer Brian Gewirtz, who currently serves as a vice president for Rock's Seven Bucks Productions company.
