Well uh.... you have to get involved in the wrestling business first champ. WWE is the only company that I know that hires writers with no experience in the business. A booker is a position that not just anyone can do. It involves generally knowing the wrestling business inside and out, and pretty much the only way you can learn that is by being in the wrestling business in some capacity for a good number of years.
