With you fielding questions about CM Punk in what seems to be every Q&A, Do you feel the IWC is being too forgiving to a man that walked out on them? He left the people that made him an international superstar high and dry with no explanation or apology. Isn't it time people move on from Phil and focus on people who are getting screwed and stick around (Ziggler, Ryder) instead?

I don't know who or what IWC is so I can't speak for them, only myself. I think anyone who thinks Punk walked out on "them" is a little narcissistic. He is an entertainer who obviously made a nice living from his fans, for sure, but he is also gave a lot to them as well with his work. Also, he is a human being that has the right to decide what is best for him personally. I miss his work, for sure, but if he was at the point where his heart wasn't in it and he was affected by injuries, I appreciate his decision. He wasn't in the middle of any real program, so it's not like he walked out and left the main event of a PPV in limbo. How was he supposed to explain? He CAN'T! He is still under contract to WWE and they are in the middle of TV negotiations and a launch of their Network. They don't want him commenting publicly. Honestly, it's time to move on, but move on from taking him leaving personally.

When does Vince go into the HOF? I can't imagine Vince putting himself in when he is old and fragile. He needs the swagger.

I don't see him going in while he is alive. And honestly, he IS WWE so it would be redundant. Once he passes, he should go in the next Hall and be the only inductee. The night should be dedicated to him.

Do you think WWE could/would ever do a “legends Division”? Even short term, say on the network, a few PPVs. I mean they have had divas divisions, cruiserweight divisions, hardcore, etc,,,why not? I’n not Saying Guy’s Sammartino’s Age, but maybe the Legends that are say mid to late 40’s to 60’s, that can still go ( with each other, not with younger guys).

I tend to doubt it. For one thing, there is a limited market that wants to see old guys wrestle. Two, do you really want to see guys like Ric Flair with their shirts off again? I don't. But more importantly, Jerry Lawler wrestles regularly and he had a heart attack on National TV. If WWE did this division and someone had a heart attack, or worse, they would not be able to defend themselves. It's a bad, bad idea all around.

I am thinking about going to Orlando, Florida soon. Do you know if the WWE lets people tour The Performance Center?

Unless they extend you an invitation, nope.

What do think the odds of Randy and Dave, temporarily teaming up at Wrestlemaina and attack HHH and Daniel Bryan so no one wins and the title match stays between them? And if that happened, do you think HHH would change the title to Fatal 4 way?

0.07 chance of happening and there is absolutely 0 percent chance that it should happen. There's no reason to get cute here. The story is in place so that it can be told effectively without Russo-izing it.
