THE ONE MAN WHO WON MITB BUT DIDN'T CASH IN, FREDDIE KRUGER IN WWE, PUNK LEADING TO GREATER LEEWAY ON PROMOS AND MORE

In your opinion, how are the top five talents the WWE has let go, due Creative lacking anything for them, in the last few years, that has really, really made you shake your head.

In no particular order, Shelton Benjamin, Luke Gallows, Scotty Goldman, Charlie Haas and Paul Burchill.

Do you think CM Punk's recent unscripted promo might change the way workers are given leeway to improvise during promos? And who do you think might be some of the best talents to be given that leeway?

Sadly, No. I think WWE believes certain talents are OK with having that leeway but the majority need to be scripted. That won't change, no matter how great Punk showed the former to be.

Will we ever see Sin Cara vs. Rey Mysterio?

Barring injury, absolutely. There's no question we'll see that down the line.

Has anyone won Money in the Bank but not cashed in?

Yes. Mr Kennedy won Money in the Bank at Wrestlemania 23 but an injury (that turned out to be nowhere as serious as originally feared) led to Kennedy losing the briefcase in a match to Edge, who went on to cash it in and win the WWE World title.

Wasn't Robert Englund supposed to host Raw at some point?

Yes, Englund, immortalized by his turn as Freddie Krueger in the Nightmare on Elm Street film series, was scheduled to guest host to promote his autobiography "Hollywood Monster" but scheduling conflicts caused him to pull out. He was never officially announced by WWE.
