Reddit user wickedsfinx posted a sheet which had the booking plans and promo rules for the tag team division BBQ segment on this week’s RAW.
You can read the contents of that sheet below:
RE-WRITING PROMOS AT TV:
* PROMO BULLET POINTS
1. B-Team welcome everyone to the BBQ // Show off the various food items
2. B-Team say that they are next in line for the RAW Tag Team Titles
3. Titus and Slater confront B-Team about their claim
4. Titus starts food fight which ends with B-Team putting Rhyno through a table
– WHAT IS THE PREMISE // DOES THE PROMO MAKE SENSE (as a STAND-ALONE and in SHOW TOTALITY)?
– TELL A STORY: MAKE IT ENTERTAINING // GRAB THE AUDIENCE’S ATTENTION // BIG FINISH
– DO NOT CHANGE TENSES
– REHEARSE YOUR SEGMENT BACKSTAGE and if required, IN THE ARENA BEFORE DOORS — if for whatever reason you can’t rehearse in the arena then COMMUNICATE THIS ASAP (BEFORE your segment airs)
– CHECK THE LATEST DRAFTS for the LATEST CHANGES
– EXECUTE VKM (VINCE MCMAHON) NOTES/DIRECTION — if you find any notes do not “work” during in-arena rehearsals or while producing the segment backstage, then COMMUNICATE THIS ASAP (BEFORE your segment airs)
– TIME THE PROMO (TALENT SHOULD NOT ADLIB)
– PROPS, PRODUCERS, TRUCK — EVERYONE needs to be on the SAME PAGE
HEADSET/GORILLA CUES:
– TELL KD (KEVIN DUNN), VKM AND KIDMAN IF YOU THINK YOUR SEGMENT IS GOING TO RUN HEAVY (BEFORE the segment starts)
– SPEAK CLEARLY so KD // VKM can HEAR YOU
– STAY AHEAD OF CUES (REPEAT YOURSELF IF NECESSARY): MIC PLACEMENT // MUSIC CUES // ORDER OF ENTRANCES, etc….
– NOTE any SPECIAL CAMERA SHOTS or specific BLOCKING
– GIVE the LAST LINE and MUSIC TO HIT ON THE OUT
– WHO GOES OVER IN THE MATCH (if applicable)
AFTERMATH:
– RUN INS
– MUSIC NEEDED
– REPLAYS
– PROMO / INTERVIEW
