PWINSIDER Q&A: WWE VS. TNA, SABLE IN THE HALL OF FAME?, BACKSTAGE AT WWE EVENTS AND MORE

Answered on 4/6

Here is how I would improve the women's division of the WWE: (1) Take Ashley Massaro, Candice Michelle, Layla El, Maria, Kristal Marshall and Michelle McCool off TV for one month. In that time, the women should participate in learning how to wrestle, from studying various wrestling holds, to both timing and execution. (2) Since Fit Finlay is currently on Smackdown, the WWE should hire Nora Greenwald as head of the women's division. She could be a tremendous help in the training of these women. She was not only two time WWE women's champion, but is also very well respected within the business as well as a very great and beautiful person. (3) While the women are off training, the WWE should sign more female wrestlers to the roster such as Lacey, Cheerleader Melissa, Sara Del Rey and April Hunter. They also should bring up Serena from OVW and Krissy Vaine from Deep South Wrestling as well. Both Beth Phoenix and Jillian Hall would be great additions to the Raw roster. That's it. What do you think?

I think that's a great idea, but it will never happen.  WWE isn't about to take their T&A factor off of television for a month.  Nora Greenwald apparently as no desire to leave her charity work and go back into wrestling at this time.  The only aspect I could see happening is WWE picking up/moving up some of the better in-ring workers, but even then, they will have to deal with the Ashley's of the world.  Of course, none of this happens until WWE decides they want to push the women's division as a wrestling division again. 

My question is, after WM VIII, Hulk Hogan, Rowdy Roddy Piper and Jake Roberts left the WWF. Supposing those three wrestlers had not went on hiatus after WM VIII, what do you think the WWF would have done with them? I'm assuming Hogan would have entered contention for the WWF Title again, but as for Piper and Jake Roberts, I'm not sure what they would have done if they'd stuck around. Please can I have your views on who you think they would have feuded with and who you would have liked to see them feud with.

If Hogan had stuck around, I imagine he would have feuded with Sid Vicious and Papa Shango for a time, then eventually be worked back into the title picture.  Of course, he may have also dropped out of sight when the steroid scandal came up, since he would be a target.  Jake Roberts would probably have settled into a midcard role, maybe working a bit with new Intercontinental Champion Bret Hart.  Piper is a tough one to figure out.  He was coming off a feud with Ric Flair and a great match with Bret Hart where he dropped the Intercontinental Title.  Maybe a return to the commentary booth would have been the best move for Piper at that point. 

Has both the WWE and TNA ever had a wrestling show in the same city at the same time?

Nope, TNA and WWE have never gone head-to-head, and I would suggest that TNA avoid doing that at this point in time. 

Any chance of Sable being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame?

There's a chance, but I wouldn't plan on it happening anytime soon.  Not that there is necessarily bad blood between Sable and WWE, because I honestly don't think there is much at this point, but because she had her peak less than a decade ago, so I think it will be some time before she is even seriously considered for the Hall Of Fame. 

When Vince McMahon, Stephanie McMahon-Lesvasque arrive to prepare for the night's wrestling show, where do they work? In an office? In the managers office? Where exactly do they and other WWE officials set up?

Usually, WWE will set up some offices at the venue in the backstage/dressing room area for the McMahons and other officials to work out of.  Most modern venues have facilities for such offices backstage, including phone and Internet lines.
