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 Cyrus. Are you ready? Let’s do this.
A/N: I’m taking a break and will most likely be spending the next few days in the hospital and out of commission. That’s why there has been no new edition of the Ultimate Wrestling Q&A all week. The questions have been piling up, and there are currently seventy-three questions waiting to be answered. There is no way that I can tackle them all, but I hate to leave them waiting while I’m off getting put back together. So, I’m going to tackle as many as I can in rapid-fire style. No deep answers, but just a few words, maybe some sarcasm or a smart-ass remark, and move on. So, are you ready? Let’s do this.
If creative authenticity is the goal, is wrestling better when it reflects the performer’s actual self, or when it asks them to become something larger than who they really are?
The best wrestlers are when they’re themselves, but cranked up to maximum output.
Who is Bron Breakker’s WrestleMania opponent?
If Bron is back in time from his hernia, the most likely option seems to be Seth Rollins. At least, that is what WWE is hoping for.
Who were your favorite wrestlers growing up?
The Anderson Brothers, The Masked Superstar, Blackjack Mulligan, and the Boogie Woogie Man, Jimmy Valiant.
Who do you think will be in the main event at Mania first? Trick or Femi?
Of these two men, I think Oba Femi is the most likely for that honor.
Who’s your favorite Muppet?
How did this get in here? Let’s go with Sesame Street’s own Count Von Count.
Top 3 dream matches?
Of current talent or all-time? The Midnight Express versus The New Day. Bobby Eaton versus CM Punk. And The Masked Superstar versus Roman Reigns.
Who do you think really deserves a World Championship run? Someone who hasn’t been a World Champion before.
All Ego Adam Page and Chelsea Green.
How would you book the Bloodline to get back together and take over once again?
I wouldn’t.
Do you think AJ Styles will return to the ring, or should the Royal Rumble be the final chapter of his career?
It may not be in a WWE ring, but he’s not finished wrestling yet.
WWE NEEDS to reenact the 30-day title defense rule. It’s ridiculous to me that championships can go 3 months without being defended. What’s the logic behind that?
I’ve made this argument before. Bring back the 30-day rule.
Do you think Mercedes Moné had the best comeback year in pro wrestling?
No, I don’t. And I think CM Punk, John Cena, AJ Lee, and Brock Lesnar, among others, would agree with me.
Bron Breakker is out of action for an unknown amount of time after undergoing a Hernia surgery. Thoughts?
The timing sucks, but it happens. Best wishes to Bron for a speedy and full recovery.
Who introduced you to professional wrestling for the first time?
My older brother and sister.
WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray thinks Bryan Danielson will eventually leave AEW and return to WWE. Thoughts?
For a job behind the scenes and that Hall of Fame ring, I can see that.
Name a Jobber in WWE who you want to see as a World Heavyweight Champion in 2027.
I wouldn’t call him a jobber, but I’d love to see WWE do more with Xavier Woods.
Which wrestler would you take to a Valentine’s Day dinner?
So long as he’s paying, come on, Theory.
Stone Cold Steve Austin has been announced as part of WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas. Thoughts?
The tickets aren’t selling as well as WWE hoped, and they’re bringing out the big guns. Give me a hell yeah.
AJ Lee is back and will be fighting Becky Lynch for the Women’s IC title at the Elimination Chamber. Thoughts?
We knew this would be coming eventually. Welcome back, AJ.
Jade Cargill has hit 100 days as the WWE Women’s Champion. Thoughts?
And she has NOT defended the title yet. This is why we need that thirty-day rule. WWE is not doing her any favors.
CM Punk versus Finn Balor at the Elimination Chamber. Thoughts?
It should be an excellent match. I’m looking forward to it.
