THE GREATEST WRESTLEMANIA MATCH SHAWN MICHAELS NEVER HAD, WHO 'JANICE' IS NAMED AFTER, TAG TEAMS IN THE WWE HALL OF FAME AND MORE

With the WWF/E Hall Of Fame coming up in two months, I know that there will be many questions on who should be inducted this year with Shawn Michaels. I do like the idea of Tag Teams being inducted as well. The Road Warriors, Demolition, Powers Of Pain, The Rock and Roll Express, The Midnight Express, The British Bulldogs, The Fabulous Freebirds and Tully Blanchard and Arn Anderson are just a few tag teams that I consider worthy of being inducted into the WWF/E Hall Of Fame!! What are your thoughts on these tag teams and if you had a vote,which of these tag teams would be inducted this year? With the exception of The Powers of Pain, I see all of the teams you mentioned as being worthy to any Hall of Fame. However, I can absolutely see the Powers getting inducted into the WWE Hall one day as well. If it was up to me, I'd like to see The Freebirds and the Brainbusters inducted this year.

I have noticed that some wrestlers use the "rock bottom" as their finisher or a variation of it. Finishers like that and the "stone cold stunner", tombstone piledriver are known for finishers for certain wrestlers. When other wrestlers use these moves its like they are not able to come up with there own. Question is that since stone cold and hbk are hall of famers and the rock and taker are shoe ins for it, has anyone thought of retiring a wrestlers finisher when they enter the HOF? Kinda like a jersey being retired for a pro athlete. Your thoughts?

I don't see it being a realistic idea, just because sooner or later, you would run out of moves. In WWE, talents are discouraged from using certain moves when they become synonymous with other names. There's no reason for that to become set in stone, especially when those names move on to the next thing. Dropping moves would further stagnate the business.

Any reason why Abyss called the nailed-2x4 Janice?

It's an inside joke. Janice is the name of Dixie Carter's mother.

I've heard so much praise for Christopher Daniels. Do you a) See him coming back and; b) winning the World title?

Christopher Daniels is now under contract to Ring of Honor, so I don't see him returning anytime soon.

Who is one talent you wished would face HBK in a stellar match at 'Mania?

Someone Michaels never had the chance to wrestle, Eddie Guerrero.
