PWINSIDER Q&A: RIC FLAIR VS. VIRGIL AT WRESTLEMANIA, HULK HOGAN, RANDY ORTON AND MORE

Answered: 1/24

I've been wondering, what exactly happened to Hulk Hogan's eye at Wrestlemania 9. I know what they mentioned, he had an accident in the weight room, was not the true story, so what happened?

The story I have always heard is that he got hurt while jet skiing, although there have been a million rumors, ranging from Randy Savage punching him out to him falling out of bed while getting up that morning and hitting his head on a nightstand.  I tend to believe the jet skiing story. 

This has bothered me for awhile so I hope you can help clear this up. Do you (or wrestling history) consider Randy Orton to be a 3 time World Champion or 2 time World Champion? I ask because his "2nd" title reign was being given the belt at No Mercy and then losing it in the first match. Does that count as a title reign? I'm curious to hear what your thoughts are.

I say three time.  Sure being "awarded" the title and then losing it immediately is a pretty lame run, but it still counts. 

With all the focus being on Hardy-Orton, it seems no one is paying much attention to the Edge-Mysterio match, you think there is ANY chance Mysterio will win the title, or will The Edge-Taker Streak Vs Streak (Well, Kinda) Match Happen At WM?

While they could always throw us a curveball, I can't see WWE ending Edge's title reign this quickly. I think Rey is a great opponent for Edge to have a fantastic match with, rather than doing a Batista or Undertaker match with Edge on a PPV undercard. 

Since Ring of Honor will be releasing a couple of DVD's to retail outlets do you think they will eventually release some of their famous shows like Joe vs. Kobashi, CZW vs. ROH the Joe vs. Punk series or some of their best of their various ROH compilation releases?

I think it all depends on the success of these initial titles.  If they become hot sellers, I think ROH will dip into their extensive library for compilation releases, but it will all depend on the sales and whether this turns into a profitable venture for them. 

I read a thread on a message board that Ric Flair's Last Match could well be against Virgil, what do you think the odds of this match taking place at Wrestlemania are?

I think Virgil should stop posing on message boards.
