Big Update on Bruce Prichard’s WWE Return – Bruce Prichard, WWE’s Executive Director of Creative Writing and Talent, is expected to resume his duties this week following a leave of absence that began in November 2024. According to PWInsider, Prichard stepped away to address family health matters, but his return signals a restoration of stability in WWE’s creative leadership.
During his absence, speculation about his future with WWE surfaced online. However, these rumors were quickly dispelled. Conrad Thompson, Prichard’s co-host on their popular podcast, addressed the situation directly, stating:
“I just want to address the elephant in the room. There’s been a lot of rumor and innuendo about Bruce Prichard. Just to clear it up, Bruce Prichard is still with WWE. Bruce Prichard is not quitting his podcast, but if you’re a longtime listener of this show, you know that there have been health events in the Prichard family and household, and right now, Bruce is going to take a little bit of a leave of absence from WWE, and he’s going to be away, taking care of what’s really important.”
Prichard has been a pivotal figure in WWE’s creative team for decades, contributing to many of the company’s most memorable moments since his initial hiring in 1987. His experience and creative vision have solidified his reputation as a key architect of WWE’s storytelling and talent development.
PWInsider further reports that Prichard is likely to attend the upcoming SmackDown taping, marking his official return to WWE’s creative operations. His reappearance will be closely watched, as his presence often plays a significant role in shaping the direction of WWE programming.
