A source noted that while Prichard&#8217;s current run with the company is rumored to end with WrestleMania, things could always change, as is the nature of the industry.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Prichard began his professional wrestling career at just 10 years old, starting by selling posters for Paul Boesch&#8217;s Houston Wrestling in 1973. He started working for the then-WWFW in 1987, occasionally as an announcer, before creating his Brother Love gimmick.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">He was let go from the company after the character was retired in early 1991, but would return in August 1992 as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlinginc.com\/2079662\/wwe-bruce-prichard-pushes-back-yes-man-image\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Vince McMahon&#8217;s &#8220;right-hand man&#8221; behind-the-scenes<\/a>, as well as in a writer position, in addition to returning as a new on-screen character. He was released once again in 2008, and worked for TNA and MLW before his final return to the company in 2019, when he joined WWE&#8217;s creative team.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As of June 2020, Prichard holds the position of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlinginc.com\/news\/2020\/08\/backstage-news-on-bruce-prichard-wwe-role-673802\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">executive director of both &#8220;WWE Raw&#8221; and &#8220;WWE SmackDown.&#8221;<\/a>\u00a0According to PWI&#8217;s report, it&#8217;s believed that writers in &#8220;WWE NXT&#8221; also fall under Prichard&#8217;s management. The outlet also reported there is currently no word on who will take up Prichard&#8217;s current role when he departs the company.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n    &#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; WWE A major name behind-the-scenes in WWE is&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":949114,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75],"class_list":["post-949113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/949113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=949113"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/949113\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/949114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=949113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=949113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=949113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
