KURT ANGLE RETURNING TO WWE, JEFF HARDY RETURNING TO WRESTLING AND MORE

Do you see Jeff Hardy returning to WWE before his issues are resolved?

No way.  WWE would be insane to bring him back knowing he could end up going to prison.  I don't see WWE touching him until his issues are settled.

Do you see Kurt Angle ever returning to WWE?

There certainly is a possibility, as you can never say never, but he seems very happy in TNA right now.

Who portrayed the tag team Magnum Force in WCW?

I believe Magnum Force, which was essentially a one-shot team put together to be destroyed by the Steiner Brothers on a Clash of Champions was Tim Hunt and Jeff Warner (later known as "Big Juice").

I don't need an exact date on this one, but when did wrestling go from being a carnival sideshow to an arena sporting event a la Madison Square Garden?

I would say the turning point was at the turn of the century, in the early 1900's, with the emergence of Frank Gotch as a national star and the formation of the original NWA.

I managed to get my hands on a comp tape that had Rick Rude wrestling in Japan. When was this? He has short hair, so it was after his haircut. I assume it would be late 90/early 91, post WWF and pre WCW?

I'm just going on a guess here, because I would need more information, but you are probably seeing a match from around 1994, when Rick Rude was working for New Japan Pro Wrestling, which had a working agreement with WCW.  Rude worked for both groups then, until his neck injury against Sting in Japan forced his retirement.
