I have a few thoughts on this but I haven't exactly settled on one yet.

I'm happy to take some suggestions if anyone thinks they've got a winner.

My first thought was Gordon Myers, as he's someone the fans trust implicitly to make the right decisions. Gordon Myers = Aaron Wexler.

Gordon is Vince McMahon. He owns the joint. He needs a Jack Tunney to run things.

Maybe instead of who we should first figure out what kind of person should be president, and narrow it down from there?

From the show, we know that they are looking for a Tunney-like authority figure, one who blends into the background, only appears on the camera on rare occasions, and does not get physically involved with the wrestlers. That would seem to preclude a former wrestler, or a former charismatic manager type that would steal the spotlight.

So...a former official, referee, or promoter type person?

Patrick Rodriguez?

Jason Dane is given the position in exchange for not suing the company for a hostile work environment. Poor guy had a rough SNW.

I actually like the Jason Dane idea. Other names to consider

* Ben Waterson, which would continue the JJ Dillon route of him eventually becoming an authority figure. Although it would certainly require some thought to make him work in that role.

* Lori Dane, because you wouldn't inject her physically into something, but her attitude would work in the "what I say, goes" approach.

* Make up somebody tied to past territories, perhaps the son of a past promoter.

I pitched Luke Kinsey. Known friend of Todd Michaelson, someone Bill Masterson wanted to push in the E, retired from the ring as he awaits election to the Hall.

I'd vote for The Evil Masked Broadcaster, but I don't think WKIK will go for the live executions that would replace suspensions.

If you don't want this character to be invoked, I'd advise not using a big name. Maybe someone from the minutae of e-wrestling history, like a longtime jobber or a character that worked some places but never got super over. Maybe even using their real name, to lend a sense of detachment from who they used to be.

Or James Monosso could retire into the role! He'd just let everything happen and take a check; no overarching authority figure problems there.

Monosso laziness would be the key to igniting the AWA's attitude era!

Shut up Bill, that's stupid. Uhm ... how about ... Ron Strickland? Uncle Ron! Okay, that's totally self serving and most people probably forget who he was anyway. Also whenever the SSN angle comes up the league tends to close...

WC: Chris Blue!

Okay, that's annoying. Fine. Chris Blue. HOORAY FOR TEH H4RD0CR3~!
