PWINSIDER Q&A: MATT HARDY FEUDS, MELINA STRIPPING, DYNAMITE KID IN THE HALL OF FAME AND MORE

Answered on 2/9

I know everyone is expecting Matt Hardy to come back to Smackdown and battle MVP, but isn't there a good storyline reason for him to come to Raw and get revenge on Randy Orton?  And what about Edge?  Hardy coming back to fight Edge for the Title is a natural to me. 

Sounds like Matt Hardy has a number of ready-made programs for him when he returns, which I think is great.  There's no reason he can't go after MVP, then Orton, then have a feud with Edge.  It's not like this all has to be done immediately.  There's enough stuff there to keep Matt busy for a year after he returns. 

I was watching an old Raw where Randy Orton had all the Divas stripping (a great idea, BTW), and I noticed Melina was involved, but she was acting very shy and uncertain, until she started stripping. It seemed totally out of character for her.  Why was she acting that way? 

That edition of Raw took place before Melina became the Melina we know today.  At the time, her character was that of a make-up artist that worked backstage at Raw (yeah, it didn't make much sense then either), so she was supposed to be a "normal girl", not the confident superstar she became with MNM. 

Now that Dynamite Kid has been located, and has signed an action figure deal, do you see him being inducted into the Hall Of Fame? 

Dynamite Kid absolutely, without a doubt, belongs in any wrestling Hall Of Fame.  That said, his outspokenness, his comments about steroid use, and the way his life has turned out makes me think WWE is not going to induct him and put a live microphone in his hand.

Has the WWE ever done two shows in one day with the same group of wrestlers?

It isn't a common practice now, but back in the boom period of the 80's and even at some points in the 90's, WWE (then WWF) would have doubleshots on a Saturday or Sunday, with the same crew working an afternoon event, then driving to another town for an evening event. It still happens on occasion these days.

I am currently watching "Hardcore Homecoming: November Reign." During some of the wrestler entrances, there are the caricatures of Bubba Ray and D-Von that are clearly visible yet they are not anywhere on the DVD. Did they appear at the show? And if so, why isn't it on the DVD?

Because of Team 3D's contract with TNA, they were not able to appear on the commercial release of the show. So, their match against Terry Funk & Sabu, which was excellent, is not on the DVD you get at stores (they included other matches as bonuses to make up for it).  There was a limited online release with the match included, but it has since been discontinued.
