Remember Freddie Prinze Jr.? Sure you do. He married Sarah Michelle Gellar Prinze Jr., and you’ve secretly hated him ever since. But by all accounts he’s a swell guy.
So what’s he doing with himself now? He just got hired by the WWE. But not to wrestle–he’s now part of their creative team doing the writing for storylines.
Free advice: Bring back the Four Horsemen!
(The spawn of Dusty Rhodes and Ted Dibiase seem like the natural base of this. Put Triple H in as the Ric Flair figure. And then turn some very popular face into a heel to take the final slot.)
That said–and I’m being quite serious here–I’ve never figured out how the WWE can square the circle of having admitted that it’s all play-acting. Once you do that, doesn’t every storyline ultimately fail to get over? If Prinze can figure out the macro fix for this metaphysical problem, he’ll do the world a real service.
