Dan Madigan, the SD creative team member who came up with a lot of the over-the-top gimmicks like Booker T’s Mama Sangria, Mordecai, Kenzo Suzuki as “Hirohito,” etc., was let go yesterday personally by Stephanie McMahon, since his ideas aren’t what WWE was looking for. David Lagana and Paul Heyman now run the team, with help from the RAW staff when necessary. Bruce Prichard has not been added back to the team, according to PWInsider.com’s Dave Scherer, and many workers prefer it stays that way. No word on whether or not WWE is actively hiring for the creative staff.
