PWINSIDER Q&A: QUESTIONS FOR VINCE, HARDY AT MANIA, FLAIR VS. UNDERTAKER AND MORE

Pigs rule the skies, and Satan has laced up the skates to play hockey…Vince McMahon has granted you an interview! Due to “scheduling conflicts”, you’ve got three questions. What do you ask? 

- Why do you walk so funny?
- Why do you refer to your testicles as citrus fruits? 
- Did you really think the WBF was going to make money? 

It's not like Vince is going to give you a straight answer anyway! 

Do you think Jeff Hardy is ready to headline Wrestlemania? Obviously, he is in a great position to be pushed. As Dave discussed earlier this week, Triple H could put Hardy over at Armageddon, which would elevate Hardy to the top of the card. My question is whether you think the WWE would realize increased PPV buys with Jeff Hardy in the main event at Wrestlemania, and whether a Jeff Hardy championship win at Wrestlemania is a possibility?

As big a fan as I am of Jeff Hardy, I just don't see him headlining Wrestlemania.  That's not to say he won't be in a title match at the show, but if I had to place a bet, I would say that someone else will be in the main event (as in, last match of the show) position. 

We know now that if Ric Flair loses, he leaves. We can arguably say that he is not going to lose a match anytime soon. At least till Wrestlemania. Let's say that happens. He doesn't lose match and they build up for a unique match at Wrestlemania. A match between a guy who cannot afford to lose and a guy who has never lost. Yea... What about Ric Flair vs. The Undertaker? I am sure it would be one hell of a match. What are your views???

I have gotten at least a dozen emails since Monday suggesting Ric Flair vs. The Undertaker at Wrestlemania.  I don't believe WWE is heading in that direction, but it certainly seems to be a "something has to give" storyline that could bring additional interest to Wrestlemania. 

I was wondering what was Roddy Piper's relationship with WWE back in the early 1990's? He was a special referee at WM X & XI, and then had a match at WM XII after acting as President, but how come he wasn't used more than that? Was it the same kind of deal Mick Foley has now where he'd just appear every once and awhile or was there any specific reason why he wasn't used as much?

Piper had a good relationship with the company, he simply was working on his acting career, and had no desire to be on the road, so he only made occasional appearances. Piper probably would have continued to do that, but then WCW came calling with a financial offer that Piper, by his own admission, just could not pass up.  In fact, WWE contacted him about coming back again right after WCW made him his offer.

I was wondering if Jericho doesn't win the title then did he really "save us"? and do you think he should win and headline Wrestlemania against HHH?

I would say that if Jericho doesn't win the title, then he hasn't "saved us" from Randy Orton.  Do I think they should put the title on Jericho?  I don't think it would be a bad move.  Would I put Jericho vs. HHH on as a main event at Wrestlemania.  Nope.  Already been there, done that.  Can't see WWE making that as the main event.
