Freddie Prinze Jr worked for WWE from 2008 to 2009, and then again from 2010 to 2012.
During a recent episode of his Wrestling with Freddie podcast, he discussed the possibility of accepting a creative role in WWE or AEW if one was offered to him. Here are the highlights:
Possible WWE return:
“WWE is very streamlined. They have a writers’ room [and] those writers would hate me the same way they hated me the first time I worked there. And trust me, they did. I had to earn their respect … and probably not all of them liked me.”
What he’d like to do in WWE:
“We’re gonna give you three wrestlers that we don’t have a story for and we’re not focused on them … can you come up with something?”
If he’d work for AEW:
“That would be a more full-time thing. That wouldn’t be ‘Just give me three wrestlers.’ I would say, ‘Hey, let’s you tell me who you want to wrestle at your pay-per-view. And let me tell your fans why they’re going to fight. That would have to be the scenario, right?”
