Chris Gough, Metro Sports anchor, discusses his time with WWE

Metro Sports anchor Chris Gough is a former writer for World Wrestling Entertainment, which just taped the SmackDown! TV show at the Sprint Center Tuesday night. Gough helped write the story lines for the muscle-bound grapplers, and now he promotes his own wrestling organization, Metro Pro Wrestling, in Kansas City, Kansas. Recently, he spoke with another former WWE writer, David Lagana, for his I Want Wrestling podcast “Formerly Creative.” 

After the jump is part one of the interview, in which Gough talks about his run with the company, and what it was like to work with WWE boss Vince McMahon and his children. For anyone interested in the inner workings of the wrestling business, it’s a good listen.
