PWINSIDER Q&A: RIOT AT WRESTLEMANIA, ELIJAH BURKE IN ROH, SPORTS-ENTERTAINMENT & MORE

Back in 1991, Vince McMahon was referring to the WWF as "Sports Entertainment". Common knowledge more than likely, but still. Anyway, when was the first time that he, or anyone else in the business, publicly started to use that term for professional wrestling that you know of?

The term has been used by McMahon for nearly the entire run of the WWF/WWE although it hasn't been until the last decade or so that it"s been utilized as a major representation of the genre at large.

What is the story about TNA negotiating with international companies that was mentioned by TNA Today on their website?

The company have had discussions with both All Japan and New Japan Pro Wrestling of late, but nothing is planned right now in the way of an actual talent agreement.

When is 2 Cold Scorpio going to be back on WWE TV and is he going to be Scorpio or Flash Funk?

Scorpio is down in Ohio Valley Wrestling working on timing and I would expect that he'll be back on TV sometime after Wrestlemania.  He was announced as Flash Funk during a WWE European tour a few months back, so I would suspect that he'll use that persona.

Do you think the crowd would riot if the Undertaker loses at Wrestlemania?

Considering I am sitting in my hotel room in Detroit as I type this, I certainly hope not!  Seriously, I doubt you'd see a riot but absolutely there would be a strong negative reaction.  As I've written and said a number of times, I doubt we'll be seeing Taker losing tonight so it's probably not an issue.

I say that Elijah Burke was in ROH before signing with WWE. Was he? Or was he just in OVW beforehand? I've got a pizza riding on this. Thanks.

Burke never worked for ROH but was indeed in Ohio Valley Wrestling for a long time before being called up.  Current WWE stars who worked Ring of Honor are CM Punk, Brian Kendrick, and Paul London.
