WWE performer reportedly sees Bruce Prichard becoming Head of Talent Relations as a "scary" move

According to reports, the atmosphere within WWE after Bruce Prichard became the Interim Head of Talent Relations is overall negative.

Over the past week, former Head of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis had to step down due to the recent allegations surrounding him and Vince McMahon. The person who replaced him is Bruce Prichard, who has worked as Executive Director for the company for many years.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter recently wrote that some talents have "expressed negativity" over Prichard's hiring and a superstar finds the move "scary":

"The reaction was generally negative from talent since Laurinaitis had a better relationship with most talent than Prichard." Meltzer added: "A couple of talents expressed negativity citing that Prichard is generally quiet and usually not approachable while Laurinaitis is very approachable and open to talking. One called the move ‘scary.'" (H/T: WrestleTalk)
