As previously reported, WWE Hall of Famer Brian “Road Dogg” James has left the company and voluntarily exited the WWE creative team.
In his place, Alexandra Williams has announced her new role as the Vice President and Lead Writer for RAW. She shared this exciting news on her LinkedIn account, stating, “I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Vice President/Lead Writer at WWE!”
According to the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, her internal promotion actually took place earlier this year.
Williams was promoted in January as part of a three-person leadership structure overseeing RAW’s writing team, alongside Ryan Ward and Jonathan Baeckstrom. Her recent public announcement confused Dave Meltzer about whether the promotion was newly finalized or simply shared later.
The report also noted that in her current position, Williams reports to Ed Koskey, who oversees creative operations. Koskey then reports to Bruce Prichard, who in turn reports to Paul “Triple H” Levesque. Together, this group manages storyline direction, character development, and major premium live event builds across WWE programming.
Williams originally joined WWE in 2020 as a writer-producer for RAW, and her work in the company’s creative system led to her promotion to senior writer in 2024. Her background outside of wrestling includes experience in film and television writing, and she is a member of SAG-AFTRA.
This promotion comes as WWE prepares its programming leading up to WrestleMania 42. While the creative department occasionally shifts personnel, there has been no reported connection between Williams’ promotion and Brian “Road Dogg” James’ recent departure from the SmackDown writing team.
