What's is Billy Graham's problem with Abdullah the Butcher? After Abdullah was inducted into the WWE HOF, Graham goes on about how he wants out of the HOF because Abdullah's a "bloodthirsty animal." Is there personal animosity or does Graham really have a problem with the use of blood in wrestling?

I never heard of any until the rant right before Mania.  At this point, Graham just come across as bitter to me.  It's a real shame the way he is spending his last days so angry.

I was just watching Impact and saw the "Mickie James Thanks The Fans" promo featured therein. What on earth was going on with the stadium level cheering and background noise whilst all the people we could see behind her were sat on their hands?? I know that they want to add life to the broadcasts, but do they really think that we're so stupid??

That is often a problem with taped shows.  It happens on Smackdown too.  I agree that it looks really stupid to "hear" people going nuts while what we see says just the opposite.

Could you do the training needed to compete on Tough Enough?

At this point in my life, I am too damn old!  When I was younger I did a lot of stuff that is similar to what they do on the show but as I have gotten older, I lift three times a week focus now on doing cardio but not to be an athlete.  I just don't want to be fat!

Michael Cole has to be the Raw GM, right?  They have to announce it sooner or later.  If they do, what becomes of the announcing situation?

They could go a couple of ways with it.  They could have Cole use his power to stay on TV as an announcer or they could just make him a Vickie Guerrero-like character.  I think Josh Matthews has gotten to the point where he can carry Raw so I would go with the latter.  I think the perfect way to get to that point would be for Jerry Lawler and Cole to have a match where the loser leaves the announce position.  Lawler could finally get the win and then on Raw the next night Cole becomes the full-time GM.

Why doesn't WWE give CM Punk the respect that he deserves?  They just treat him like an afterthought, which is crazy when you consider how short on heels they are.

Right now, he is coming near the end of his deal and until he re-signs, he will be in a bit of a holding pattern.  But beyond that, I don't know.  He loves the business, has been able to get a ton of heat and is over, yet they only really push him so far.  I don't get it either.  To me, he is a huge asset that they should get much more out of than they do.
