It had larger than life personalities, bone crunching physicality and jaw-dropping theatrics but backstage it was an industry devoid of outsiders. Then in 1999, after working together on a special for MTV, Dwayne The Rock Johnson turned to 26-year old television writer Brian Gewirtz and asked You ever consider writing for WWE?
