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.

Vince Russo: “WWE is in the absolute Creative Position that it’s in because those at the top of the company—are not QUALIFIED AT THEIR JOBS.” Thoughts?

Is he talking about Triple H and HBK? Or is he talking about the executives at TKO? If it’s the latter, he’s 100% correct. If he’s talking about the two former members of DX, I’ll have to disagree. They have their flaws to be sure, but if not them, who else is there? The Rock? Vince Russo? Nah, I don’t think so.

Xavier Woods has signed a new multi-year extension with the WWE. Thoughts?

Good move by the WWE. Woods and Kofi are still entertaining as The New Day, and Woods has plenty of potential as a top guy if needed. The man has skills.

What do you think — was Jade Cargill’s AEW run truly forgettable?

I can’t think of a feud or match from her AEW run that stands out. Not a single one. So, that would be yes to that question.

What do you think about AEW returning to Greensboro for Blood and Guts? Is it a good venue?

Greensboro has always been a great wrestling town, dating back to the ’60s and Jim Crockett Promotions. Blood & Guts is AEW’s version of WarGames, which started with Crockett, and in Greensboro, if I recall correctly. For a strong crowd and this match, it’s the perfect location.

Who should be the one to challenge Seth Rollins next?

CM Punk, LA Knight, and Jey Uso have all thrown their names into the pot and will be after Seth and that title. But, what if another champion, maybe someone with two titles, such as the current Intercontinental and AAA Mega Champion DominikMysterio, were to decide he wants to be Dominik-Three-Belts? Dom has Judgment Day, while Seth has The Vision. It would absolutely be entertaining to watch unfold, right? I know I’d love to see it.

Should John Cena go out on top in his final match, or is it time for him to pass the torch?

It depends on who the final opponent is. If it’s Brock, then Cena steals a win. If it’s Gunther, John takes the loss. It all depends on who the last match is against as to what happens.

Kevin Nash says Rhea Ripley would have been a good fit for the NWO. Thoughts?

Rhea would have fit in well with Hogan, Hall, and Nash. Kevin is 100% correct.

In reference to the sign at RAW that said, “Meltzer Fears Facts”, Uncle Dave replied, “I laughed. Nobody studies and reports facts more than me. Read one issue and it’s obvious.” Thoughts?

Nobody reports facts more than Dave? Dave makes up things, doesn’t check sources, and speculates more than a liberal trying to decide if someone is a racist, Nazi, or fascist if they support deporting illegal aliens. He’s saying that we have to read his stuff, pay him for what he thinks, and only then are we properly educated and informed. Uncle Dave knows wrestling history, but he’s also very delusional and just plain creepy. Dave doesn’t fear facts. He just ignores them.

Dark Side of the Ring has been renewed for a 7th season by ViceTV. What topics would you like to see the show address this season?

The lives of Ann Casey or Penny Banner would make awesome stories. Justin Credible and his sad state of affairs would make a great story. The RAW Diva Search, Tough Enough, and Where Are They Now would be good. CM Punk and the AEW scandals would also be interesting as well.

Matt Cardona will be wrestling at NXT next week against Josh Briggs. Thoughts?

He’s working his way back to the main roster of WWE, slowly but surely. Woo woo woo, you know it!
