The announcement for the WM29 press conference got me thinking and I did some digging, you have to go all the way back to WM23 to find it being announced, in 2006, in a state with a non GOP governor. My question with that being said is: When did Linda start expressing real desire to run for office?

She ran in 2010 for the first time but she definitely has aspirations a few years before that.  With that said, if a Democratic governor gave WWE a big deal to host Mania, you can bet that they would take it.

Why does Rock intimate in interviews he may or may not wrestle at WrestleMania? Wasn't the announcement on Raw the day after last year's WrestleMania was that he and John were going to wrestle?

I haven't seen any interviews where he has done that but if it happens, it's probably because in that particular piece he is pushing a movie, not wrestling.

How do the Divas salaries fare in comparison to the guys (say the most successful one, like a Beth Phoenix), downside-wise and overall?

They generally earn 25 to 50% of what their male counterpart would get, at best.

So let me get this straight. After a really really awkward and stupid kiss, Eve decides she wants to be with Cena? After chewing him out when Zack was hurt? So now we have to suffer through another insipid sill storyline with these three?  If Zack Ryder was in such poor shape, then why was he even at the auditorium? Why would he not be home resting? Or would that make sense, and therefore discarded by creative?

In order, yes, yes, unfortunately yes, he shouldn't have been, because WWE makes no logical sense and oh yeah if it makes sense Vince McMahon wants no part of it.

While watching R-Truth against Ziggler, and watching that rollup, it occurred to me : Wouldn't it be a cool idea to give R-Truth an Eddie Guerrero-type of character? I know, no one can replace the great EG, but I think he would fit certain elements of EG's character in with his own and be a great fan favorite. What do you think?

I would just like to see WWE give most of their talent an interesting, fun, believable character and allow them to let it grow.  Instead, they are constantly changing guys up to the point where they don't mean anything.  Truth has played a number of characters over the last few months which is keeping him from establishing one that works.  So I would just rather that they let him actually develop a character and see what he could do with it.
