Since the MIB title match will be a stretcher match that means anything goes. Instead of Bryan wrestling, what if he were to outsmart Kane, knock him out with a wrench as soon as the bells rings and retain the title. He will have outsmarted the Authority and retain his title and defend it at 100% at SummerSlam. I think the fans would pop for it, what do you think?

Well, it would fall within the rules for sure. I would hate it as a main event though. If someone bought the show on PPV they could definitely feel ripped off.

Why do WWE send wrestlers to the development if some of them have experience in wrestling?

WWE wants to train their guys to work the WWE way, so they send them to NXT to learn that. Just because a guy has worked indies, or even for a bigger company, doesn't mean WWE wants them doing in their rings what they did elsewhere. It also helps management get to know what the worker has to offer.

I hear so many other "insiders" talk about Dolph Ziggler and he'll never go anywhere in WWE and that he reached his peak years ago. I for one see so much potential in him and maybe it's just me, but he has so many characteristics in the ring as a young Shawn Michaels. Obviously he's no heartbreak kid, but the man has main event talent. What are your thoughts? Has he peaked in WWE? Is he better off somewhere else?

He has only peaked if creative decides that he has. If they gave him a bigger role I feel he is up to the challenge. Where else can he go? At the end of the day it's about money and WWE pays more of it than anyone else would. TNA is in cutback mode so that's not an option any more. And ROH can't compete with WWE dollars.

With the WWE App showing the in ring action during commercial breaks. Do see a scenario where a match would finish during the break to hype up the app and shows that anything can happen? I'm surprised they haven't done that yet at least once.

If so, only with NBC Universal's blessing. Remember, WWE gets paid big money to air their shows (and finishes) on TV. That is why you see the end of matches there.

If Daniel Bryan can't go at MITB, would it be best to have maybe either Orton or Kane win the title? This way they can be used almost as a transitional champion for when Bryan comes back to beat them. I just feel like Bryan deserves a run with the title and I'd hate for the company to take that away from him.

I have already said that I think if Bryan can't go (with the caveat that he will return soon) whoever wins the belt should be a transition guy. I don't elevate a guy this soon if Bryan is returning in the near future. I think Kane is totally unbelievable. Batista is gone. So Orton as the guy makes sense, especially since Bryan didn't actually beat him at Mania.
