Yes, it’s another edition of the Ultimate Wrestling Q&A. Merry Christmas Eve, my friends. Are you ready? Let’s do this.

Do you think the AEW roster is getting too big and storylines are getting thinner and thinner and not complex and meaningful as they used to be? And do you also feel this version of AEW is a downgrade from the original AEW with the initial roster?

To everything you said, I can only nod my head in agreement and say, “Yes!”.

Who do you think Bray Wyatt will face at Wrestlemania? I don’t see him being put in a title match so soon, but who could he be in a big program with at Mania, as I’d imagine the LA Knight feud would end before then?

I’m not sure what WWE has planned for Wyatt at Mania, but you’re right. The LA Knight story should be over by then. How about Finn Balor’s “Demon” versus Bray? With The Judgement Day and the consistently rumored Wyatt 6 at ringside, it would be epic. Or hell, just make it a multi-man tag match. But I want to see The Demon and The Fiend go face to face. That would be most menacing.

What do you think would happen if Vince tried to brutally force his way back into power? I think he’d alienate his family, the board, and company stakeholders.

People would get very pissed off, including several members of the family as you say. Stock prices would drop pretty quickly and it would be a legal and financial mess for all parties involved. I don’t think it will happen.

Given the multiple openings of the Forbidden Door, making most current daydream matches a reality, what is one dream match(that seems far from possible) you’d like to see?

I would love to see Roman Reigns defend against Matt Cardona for the WWE Championship title. Kenny Omega versus Seth Rollins could be good too. And how about Kevin Owens versus Seth Rollins? With a question like this, the possibilities are endless.

Come up with a new type of match. The goofier the better, please.

How about a Reverse Tuxedo Match? Instead of the two men ripping the tuxedos off of each other, the wrestlers start off in normal trunks and you have to dress your opponent in pants, a jacket, and a top hat to win. Lame, I know, but that was the first Russo-style idea that I could think of.

Would you rather have Roman challenged by Punk, Cody, Rock, or Sami? Or a fatal 4 way on night 1 to face Roman on night 2? Or a 5 way for the title?

How about Night 1 being Roman versus Rock to settle their “Head of The Table/Tribal Chief” argument while Cody, Punk, and Sami wrestle in a Triple Threat Match on Night 1 as well, with the winner facing the winner of the Roman/Rock match on Night 2 for the WWE or Universal Championship. Works for me.

Roddy Piper versus Seth Rollins. Who wins?

Piper was the better talker, but Seth is the better in-ring performer in my opinion. But Seth can also lose a match and not be affected by the loss. Piper would be the one to go over and get the win.

Who’s the better booker? Tony Khan or Vince Russo?

Vince Russo. At least some of his stuff was thought out and made sense, plus Russo could be tempered a bit when needed. Khan won’t listen to anyone, rushes things, and ninety percent of his shows make absolutely no sense at all.

What should a Women’s mid-card title be called in WWE?

I would go with the Women’s Continental Championship.

Should blading be considered illegal?

Illegal? Nope. Just used only when absolutely necessary and when it lends to a story or moment and not just do be doing it. Keep it rare and make it matter.

And there you go. My thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and any questions are welcome and appreciated. And with that, I’m out of here. Take care and be well, my friends. Have a very Merry Christmas and I’ll see you at the matches.

Ubuntu!
