What’s going on with Max Caster? Is his recent string of rap fumbles part of an angle, or are there backstage issues that may be causing them?

My belief is that it's all part of some sort of story or angle.

If WrestleMania indeed comes to Minneapolis next year, and next year’s HOF follows Philly’s lead and inducts a big name important to Minnesota’s wrestling history, who would be the best choice or choices?

The biggest names I can think of beyond Brock Lesnar (who I don't see WWE inducting unless something major changes) or Nailz (again, not happening) who aren't already inducted would be Brad Rheighans, The Andersons, or Greg Gagne, who I feel are important names locally in Minnesota, but I don't know that WWE would give them individual inductions.  Curt Hennig, Verne Gagne, The Road Warriors, Paul Ellering and Rick Rude are all in as are Jesse Ventura and Eric Bischoff.  I'd love to see The Crusher be honored, but technically he is Miilwaukee!

If we are going to pull beyond someone "from" Minnesota, Rick Martel is a former AWA World Champion who has yet to be honored.  I'd love to see him go in personally.

What's your best advice for those attending Wrestlemania weekend?

Wear the most comfortable pair of sneakers you have as you will be doing a ton of walking and plan your day out well in advance while knowing if you are trying to do lots of signings or meet & greets, you are at the mercy of the lines, so get there early to get done so you have wiggle room for your next event/signing/dinn er, etc. The day will escape you faster than you realize!

Why isn't Nick Bockwinkel in the WWE Hall of Fame?

He is.  He was inducted in 2007 in Detroit, Michigan.

Is it true Jeff Hardy once turned down the WWE Hall of Fame?

Yes.  WWE wanted him to be inducted in 2022 alone.  Hardy, who went on to sign with AEW, turned it down.
