In an announcement that seemingly came out of nowhere, WWE has appointed former ECW founder Paul Heyman and ex-WCW President Eric Bischoff executive directors of Raw and SmackDown respectively.
Sports Illustrated was the first to break the news.
“Heyman is set to become Executive Director of Monday Night Raw, while Bischoff will fill the same role for SmackDown Live. Both will report directly to WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon.
WWE confirmed the news with Sports Illustrated, with an official announcement expected later .
The two positions are full-time executive roles, with no plans at the current time for this to be introduced as part of a TV storyline.”
