I’m funning behind big time, but it’s okay. It’s not like we’ve had any major news or happenings over the past few days in pro wrestling, right? Yeah, right! It’s the first of what will be two editions of the Ultimate Wrestling Q&A for today. I’m playing catch up, but just consider it a Father’s Day gift instead. Are you ready? Let’s do this.

Anything Goes Match. Cactus Jack versus Jon Moxley. Who wins?

Cactus Jack was a great entertainer, but part of his charm and character was while he was borderline insane, he rarely actually won matches. Cactus would lose the match and then go all nuts. It’ll be the same here. Moxley may be kind of stale, to me anyhow, but at least he tends to win. Moxley wins.

Vince McMahon is being investigated for a 3 million dollar payoff to Mistress. Is this the end of the WWE?

Not at all. Read the logo. Then, now, forever, together. WWE will never truly die!

Vince has “temporarily” stepped down as CEO & Chairman and Stephanie is taking his place as the “Interim CEO”. Vince is still in charge of creative though. Thoughts?

Vince is doing what he has to do to appear to comply with the wishes of the WWE Board of Directors and appease the public eye, but have no doubts, so long as there is breath in his body, regardless of what title he holds, Vince is WWE, WWE is Vince, and he’s still in charge, period!

What black wrestlers would you put in the top 10 in the world?

I’m not sure of the question because is it asking my Top Ten Black Wrestlers or is it asking if I was to rank the Top Ten Wrestlers in the world today, what black wrestlers would I include in that listing. Well, I don’t judge the wrestlers by skin color, but instead by their skills, the characters they portray, and how much they entertain me, so if it’s the latter, I can’t answer because I don’t judge my wrestlers that way. I prefer to think in other terms than black or white or whatever. But my Top Ten Wrestlers that I enjoy watching, who just happen to have black skin, I can do that one. In no definite order, but they’re just fun and awesome to watch, my 10 Favorite Wrestlers who just happen to be black are Jacqueline, Porkchop Cash, Ron Simmons, Iceman King Parsons, Rufus R. Jones, Xavier Woods, The Rock, Jazz, Rodney Mack, and R-Truth!

With Cody injured, who do you think will take any title off Roman Reigns, you know, if he ever loses one before we die.

With Brock coming back for SummerSlam, I think he stands a great chance of being the one, but I’ve heard people mention about maybe having Seth Rollins win Money In The Bank and then recreate the moment from Wrestlemania 31 where he got involved in a match between Roman and Brock and cashed in the MITB contract to walk out WWE Champion. Is history recreating itself? I like that idea. Let’s go with Seth, as of now.

Do you think the Lesnar vs Reigns SS is very lazy from WWE? They’ve got so many people who can slot in there they have gone with him.

They’ve got many people, but who has been built up to be seen as a truly top guy? Brock versus Roman works and has proven to always be a top drawing match, so yes, while I agree it is somewhat lazy booking, I can’t blame WWE for going back to what they know will work. It’s buying time to allow them to build other stars as top guys.

Do you think WWE was aware of the Vince situation prior to it being made public and that was why Stephanie stepped down so she would be in a position to take over as interim CEO?

The WWE Board of Directors has known about this for several months, and since Stephanie was and is a member of the Board of Directors, they’ve known. It was only leaked to the press a few days ago, but it’s mainly an in-company matter so yes, WWE knew.

And there you go. My thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and any questions are welcome and very appreciated. I’ll be back later today with another edition of the Ultimate Wrestling Q&A, so watch for it. Until then, stay safe and be good, my friends. Happy Father’s Day. I’ll see you at the matches.

Ubuntu!
