10 Times WWE Leaked Top Secret Information

9. The Format Of A RAW Script

In 2014, the script for the April 14 Monday Night RAW script was leaked online.

The sheer detail on the f*cking thing was astonishing. It was as if the writers go to the painstaking lengths of building a miniature ship in a bottle, only using particles of sh*t instead of wood. The pursuit of perfection is so heavily ironic. Vince McMahon is an auteur of terrible children's television.

In one notable tidbit, copy was leaked from a drastically overwritten (and awful) promo directed at Bray Wyatt from John Cena, in which he called Bray "ugly" as a means of building interest in a violent stipulation match. Elsewhere, the incredibly rigid and stilted format, not that it came as much of a surprise, revealed WWE's TV as an abomination.

Bryan Alvarez was told by a source that Stephanie McMahon responded so furiously to the leak that she was "mad enough that she could beat Ronda Rousey in a UFC fight".

Jesus Christ, which dipsh*t was thick enough to think she could do that? Was this a direct Stephanie quote? "I'm so mad, I could beat Ronda Rousey in a UFC fight" is something she might snarl.

Or did Disco Inferno have an agent job at the time that nobody was aware of?
