Welcome to the show. It’s the only pro wrestling Q&A that matters. You have questions and I have answers. It’s the Ultimate Wrestling Q&A. I’m Doug, your party host and Guiding Light. Are you ready? Let’s do this.

In a recent interview, D-Lo Brown said that he’d only go into the WWE Hall of Fame if the late Darren Drozdov, aka former WWE Superstar Droz, could go into the Hall of Fame with him as well. Thoughts?

Given the way their careers are forever linked, it’s a nice gesture on D-Lo’s part and I’m sure that Droz’s family would be very appreciative of the sentiment.

According to Ric Flair, he’s still working for AEW and Tony Khan. Thoughts?

And yet, he spends the majority of his time talking about WWE and keeping John Cena from becoming a 17-time champion. It’s possible that Tony has Ric under some kind of Legacy deal and just pays him for being Ric Flair. Anything is possible where Ric is concerned. It’s also possible that Ric had a few too many drinks and is just talking out of his ass. If Ric is managing to squeeze a check from Tony, good for him.

Chelsea Green says that they have sent Drew McIntyre an invitation to join her Secret Hervice faction. Would you like to see an alliance between Drew & Chelsea on WWE TV?

While the occasional interaction would be cool, both Drew and The Chelsea squad are better off for now with each doing their own things. While Drew has a common Scottish bond with Piper Niven & Alba Fyre, which allows for interaction, their stories are headed in different directions and there is no reason for anything more than that.

One faction must go forever. Who do you pick? The nWo, DX, The Hart Foundation, or The Nation of Domination.

It’s a tough call since all four factions have very major roles in the history of professional wrestling, and if any of them are removed, major changes would occur. I’ll pick The Nation for oblivion.

Who is your current all-time favorite AEW Superstar?

A true wrestling legend and all-around legendary father, Christian Cage.

Kevin & Kerry Von Erich versus Ron Simmons & Butch Reed, aka DOOM. Who wins?

A great match with four legendary performers. If they’re in Texas, the winners are obvious. But I’m assuming this is in neutral territory, and I’m the booker. And in my world, we see Doom’s manager, Woman, cause a distraction. And the winners? Ron Simmons and Butch Reed, the team of DOOM!

Should WWE ask Shinsuke Nakamura to retire from pro wrestling?

Shinsuke still has plenty left in the tank and has no reason to retire anytime soon. So, that would be a no.

Would you be interested in seeing Rhea Ripley versus Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania 41?

No, this doesn’t need to happen. Rhea and Dom have seemingly moved away from each other in recent weeks, and while I appreciate the occasional interaction between the two, they have no reason to spike it back up for a match. Maybe later in the future, but for now, both have other things on their agenda to handle. I don’t want to see Dom &Rhea do anything together in a major way until they have their eventual reconciliation.

Carmella says that she has no plans to ever return to WWE, given how she was treated after twelve years. Thoughts?

Given her recent comments and behavior after WWE allowed her contract to expire, I don’t think Carmella would be welcome back. Before her accusations of the WWE of firing her for having a baby, Carmella would probably have been encouraged to deal with her injuries, and then, once she’s able to wrestle, come back. That bridge has now been burned. Carmella is essentially quitting because she’s been fired.

Wahoo McDaniel versus Chief Jay Strongbow in an Indian Strap Match. Who wins?

The real deal, the legitimate, true Native American, Chief Wahoo McDaniel would drag the Italian, fake-ass Indian, Chief Jay, around the ring, chop him a few hundred times, and take an easy win.

And there you go. My thanks for reading. Comments, thoughts, and questions are welcome and appreciated. Be sure to like, share, and subscribe. And with that, let’s wrap it up. Take care and be well, my friends. Watch out for foreign objects, and I’ll see you at the matches.
