Do you know of any other major or semi major signing for WWE that has done more clean jobs than Karl Anderson?
I don’t track those kinds of things but your point is well taken. I think they have not done a good job at all with Anderson. The guy is a stud and should be given more of an opportunity. I couldn’t agree more.
What’s the likelihood that we get a Samoa Joe main roster debut sometime soon?
I honestly don’t know the answer there. A case can be made for bringing him up, since he is a great worker and has been delivering at a high level since coming to WWE. The flip side is, NXT is a viable brand and they need stars down there to draw houses when they take the brand on the road. Joe is a big part of that to them. If he never makes the main roster it may not be a bad thing at all if he is a big star, with a big paycheck, for NXT.
Being that Neville seems to have no real direction, do you see them putting him into the Cruiserweight Division when the time comes? Any other superstars on the main roster that you think may join the division?
I think it’s too soon to say. First, we have to see how the Cruisers will be booked. If it’s properly, then maybe they would go down that road since Neville can go and he hasn’t been used all that well. But if I am him, I would want to make sure the Cruisers are going to be booked strongly before I got moved over there. If they are, it could be a good spot for him and maybe some other smaller guys that haven’t been given a great push.
What happened to Beth Phoenix?
She is the significant other of Adam “Edge Copeland and the mother of his children. She is pretty much retired from wrestling at this point.
Knowing the answer is probably "no," because WWE doesn't seem to care about that sort of thing anymore -- but with Smackdown bringing in a new tag team championship and a new women's championship, and the original (World) Tag Team Championship from 1971 and the Women's Championship from 1956 standing vacant, is there any chance that Smackdown will say their new belts are the successors to those original championships to take advantage of their rich history and legacy? Smackdown then can boast in its "feud" with Raw that it has all of the original WWF/E championships -- World, Women's, Tag and IC -- and that it carries WWE's legacy, which fits in with its persona of being the more "wrestling" show.
I honestly don’t think that the company is concerned with that kind of history. They have always been more of the “history is what we say it is” mindset. Time will tell but my guess is that they will not do it.
