Is it true that John Cena will be facing CM Punk for the WWE title on SummerSlam? Wouldn't it be weird for the WWE to use their only two main guys and pit them against each other, especially now that CM Punk has turned face?

I have not heard from anyone in the company that will be the case and I tend to doubt that they would do that.  Vince McMahon has supreme trust in two guys right now as draws, Cena and Punk.  I don't see him using them both in one match and I think it would be insane if they did that.

Will The Undertaker ever wrestle on a regular basis again?

All signs point to no on that front.  At this point in his life, as he gets closer to 50, he has become an attraction for the company.  Even before he was a "once a year" worker he was taking time off to stay fresh as he got older.  The business is tough, especially on a guy his size that works the style he did over his last decade.  Time catches up with people sooner or later.

I was watching Raw on my DVR and I think I saw Jack Thwaggah get pinned by Santino after taking the Cobra. Obviously my DVR must be broken, so can you tell me what actually happened?

What you missed was Vince McMahon, in the back, practicing the line of rhetoric he would give about young talent not stepping up for the next WWE earnings conference call.

I could be way off base but since they both have ties to WWE, wouldn’t a WrestleMania match of Tyson vs. Lesnar be a money machine. You are talking about 2 huge names and I have to think that with a solid 6-8 months of training that Tyson could put on a more than believable effort. It may not be Michaels / Undertaker match quality but it just seems like the kind of match that screams mainstream media publicity which causes interest and curiosity which always helps buyrates. What are your thoughts?

You know, that would definitely be a draw in my opinion.  I think that they could do really good business with that and actually get people from outside of the business to buy the show to see it.

Shawn Michaels is my favorite wrestler. When he retired it felt real and so far he is a man of his word. But do you think he would ever come back to have one more match with a specific person?

It seemed real because it was real.  He meant it and he has held true to his word.  He has also said that he would come back if Vince McMahon told him he really needed him but at this point in his life he is happily retired and from all accounts wants to stay that way.
