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, guiding light, and the man with the best mullet since Billy Ray. Are you ready? Let’s do this.

The ICE commercials are still on AEW Dynamite despite Adam Page’s protests. Thoughts?

I guess the executives of WBD and TBS aren’t listening to what Page says either. The AEW Champion can complain all he wants, but the men who sign the deals prefer to keep getting paid, run the commercials, and stay on the good side of the Feds. We see where the power truly is.

Matt & Jeff Hardy are the new NXT Tag Team Champions. Thoughts?

Congratulations to the two NC boys for another well-deserved reign with some tag team gold. Matt & Jeff know that the end is near, and are making the most of their time in the spotlight. Double-titles with belts in both TNA and NXT. It won’t be long before we see them back on RAW or SmackDown at this pace. It’s a cool wrestling moment.

Adorable Adrian Adonis versus Exotic Adrian Street. Who wins?

Two excellent wrestlers having a gay old time. Adonis was a tremendous wrestler who moved so well for his size. And Street was smaller, but was so capable, with a legit shoot background. Adonis would have Jimmy Hart. Street would have Miss Linda. And Exotic beats Adorable every time.

HBK, Sting, Vader, Bret Hart, and Mr. Perfect versus Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, Ric Flair, and Harley Race. Who wins?

Ten amazing talents, all of whom won the World Championship at some point in time during their careers. It’d be a great, very entertaining match. All of these egos, though. And the winners? That’s not even in doubt. Hogan, Savage, Andre, Ric, and Harley would walk out with the victory.

The arrest has finally been made, and Raja Jackson has been charged with one count of felony battery causing serious bodily injury and one count of misdemeanor battery. Thoughts?

It took a month, but finally. Raja will get some fines and probation, but I doubt he’ll get any jail time. I expect a plea deal, and a civil suit will follow to take care of hospital bills and rehab. Raja will continue to play the victim, but Syko Stu will be the one to get paid.

Which show was better? NXT vs TNA ShowDown or AEW Title Tuesday Night Dynamite?

I watched the highlights of both shows and then tried to watch the AEW show on Max. I lasted ten minutes. The former Invasion, now known as a ShowDown, made sense, and I knew all the players. AEW, for just those few minutes, made my head hurt. Did Darby really have a Molotov Cocktail? Oy vey. The NXT versus TNA show was definitely better.

Rikishi says that WWE has completely ruined Jacob Fatu and destroyed any momentum he was gaining. Thoughts?

Turning Fatu into a babyface was, in my opinion, a mistake. And as much as I hate to admit it, Rikishi is right. He was hot, cooled down, vanished for a few, and now he’s back in a short, meaningless thing with Drew McIntyre. Fatu was so hot, and now, it seems he’s just an afterthought. WWE is dropping the ball.

Do you think that the Undertaker will have one more match?

Only if Michelle allows him to have another match, and wants a new home gym. And the spotlight by walking Mark to the ring. If Michelle can find a way to benefit. Taker will have another match. If Taker grows a set and has common sense, another match will never happen.

When Corey Graves returns, do you think he’ll challenge Brock Lesnar to a match?

Corey is a former wrestler and has been medically cleared to compete for a few years, so coming back and doing a one-off with Brock makes perfect sense. At least I hope that’s how it works out. Brock versus Graves as an undercard match at the next Saturday Night’s Main Event would be money and a great match to see.

Trick Williams walked out on NXT at the NXT vs TNA ShowDown and cost NXT the match. Thoughts?

So, the NXT wrestler, who is the current TNA Champion, walked out on the current NXT Champion, costing NXT the Survivor Series-style match against TNA. It sounds as if we have a traitor. So, we’ll get some great matches between Trick Williams versus Ricky Saints. That sounds good to me.
