After watching Smackdown this week, I got to thinking.  What if Barrett, Slater, and Gabriel are all still members of Nexus, since CM Punk said they were going to take over WWE?  To do that, it would make sense to have groups on both shows.

Obviously, WWE matches the two groups against each other on Raw this week, after your question was sent in.  That said, I would not be shocked at all if Nexus and the Corre ended up joining together at some point to create a larger group.  I don't see it happening right now, but it isn't out of the realm of possibility.

Do you see recently signed Awesome Kong facing fellow WWE Diva Gail Kim? They both had incredible matches against one another while in TNA. 

Sure, once Kong makes her in-ring debut for the company, and if she is on the same brand as Kim.  That said, I would not expect them to get the kind of ring time they got in TNA, so I wouldn't expect the same level of match in WWE.

Why is it that the WWE thinks they should ignore the achievements of past superstars? Tonight on Smackdown Matt Striker asked "Didn't Beth Phoenix enter a Royal Rumble?" to which Michael Cole replied with "She eliminated The Great Khali last year to become the first diva to ever eliminate a male superstar." Unless Mark Henry and Chris Jericho are actually females, I think they are forgetting about Chyna, who eliminated both in the 1999 and 2000 Royal Rumbles, respectively.

WWE often likes to rewrite their history to serve their purpose at the time.  I agree, it is ridiculous.  

When will more people be announced for induction into the WWE Hall of Fame besides Shawn Michaels?

I would expect more names to start being announced after the Royal Rumble is in the books.  Michaels being announced early was simply a (smart) move to give ticket sales an immediate boost. 

Which gimmick match in your opinion is more enjoyable, War Games or the Royal Rumble?

Wow, that is tough.  The Rumble is my favorite WWE gimmick match ever, and War Games was my favorite in the NWA/WCW.  While War Games was more about a team vs. team concept, usually the result of heated feuds, Rumble is more of a free-for-all where you don't know what might happen.  I will take the Rumble by a hair, but War Games is right behind it.
