Reading the recent comments that Rock made regarding his desire to return for another (possibly last) match, he indicates that he wants to return provided that the match be a "once in a lifetime" marquee match up. I think the only possible match that measures up to this is Rock - Brock at Mania. I know they were planning to build to this for Mania 30 until Rock got injured. My question is do you see this match still being a possibility given that the general consensus being that it will be Reigns - Lesnar at Mania 31? If I were booking I would have tried to do Rock Lesnar (movie schedule notwithstanding) at Mania 31 and continue to build Reigns up to have him challenge for the belt in 2016.

If Rock agrees to come back to do that match, yep Vince would do it in a second. He will take a sure thing over a maybe any day.

When every unexplainable WWE creative call comes back to “it was Vince’s decision”, it sounds way too convenient. As if they’re deliberately trying to build this Howard Hughes image where everyone, including Steph and Hunter, are just puppets. The reasoning would be since Vince is untouchable by the fans, let him draw the heat. He’s no longer a character so he can’t be chant-attacked by the Raw audience or tuned out by viewers, and the IWC has no effect on him as the boss.  So how confident are you that sources are not being feed this “Crazy Vince” narrative as a way to deflect criticism?

Don’t be a conspiracy theorist. Vince is in charge of every final call on creative. It’s not rumor, it’s fact.

It has probably been discussed before, but the renaming of wrestlers when they sign with WWE seems to take away from the original "character". I hope that Kenta won't get lost in the shuffle. I get that it's about merchandising, but let the people enjoy who they already know. Your thoughts.

I don’t have a problem with it because WWE feels they are making them a star so they want to be able to fully monetize that. And to be honest, when a guy makes his name in front of thousands on the indies and then comes to WWE where he works in front of millions, I am OK with WWE doing what they do.

What is your opinion of Cameron?  I just saw her match on Raw where she was yelling at the ref to count the pin when Naomi was on her stomach, and where she tapped out before Naomi had her submission move fully applied.

As far as being a wrestler, she’s a very pretty woman. How’s that? The belly pin was embarrassing, it really was. Learn your job already.

Do you think JBL, Cole, and Lawler contribute to the lack of interest in the divas division when they spend the majority of the match (Naomi/Cameron) trying to sell us that Cena broke Lesnar's nose and not even calling the match unless it's a pinfall?

They don’t help, that’s for sure. But creative could do a much better job of presenting the Divas as athletes as well.
