PWINSIDER Q&A: KAZ'S TNA 'DEPARTURE', CM PUNK'S MANNERISMS, BOOGEYMAN STILL BEING ON THE WWE PAYROLL & MORE,

Now that Kaz has "left" TNA, how long will it be until we see "Salsa Man" show up in the Impact Zone?

While there are rumors of Kaz working as the masked "Suicide" character from the TNA Impact video game, I don't believe we'll see a Salsa Man anytime soon.

During C.M. Punk's entrances, I notice he taps his wrist; Is he showing that this is "his time" as champion, or is he sending a (not-so) subtle message to Tony Atlas?

I believe Punk is pointing at an imaginary watch, because he usually does it before he bellows "It's Clobbering Time" a la Marvel Comics' The Thing.

What was CM Punk's entrance song in ROH?

AFI's "Miserea Cantare" was CM Punk's theme music on the indy scene and ROH.  Punk later used Living Colour's "Cult of Personality" as well.

All the recent releases in WWE lately brings a question to mind, why is the Boogeyman still employed?  I cannot remember the last time he even appeared on TV (a year ago maybe?).  Is he just popular with Vince, or is it all the merchandise he sells?  I'm baffled!

I think it's probably a mixture of the two, plus the company has been actively seeking out minority talent to push, so it makes sense to have him on the payroll and bring him back when he's 100% healthy.

Given the apparent return of the "Soviet Empire" with what's going on in   Europe lately, knowing how Vince McMahon usually takes advantage of world  issues, does this bode well for the character of  Vladimir Koslov? As  long as the conflict in Europe continues, do you expect Vladimir to be given a  monster heel push?

Beyond a few references to current events on Smackdown, I don't foresee any changes in how Kozlov is presented.
