Although you might see it now and then,  why aren't championship matches no longer 2 out of 3 falls, especially when it's for the tag belts? They have so much filler in between matches that it seems this would add more actual wrestling and more drama to championship matches.  What are your thoughts on this?

Where the tag titles are concerned, companies don’t see them as a draw any more. They see singles guys as more marketable. Also, WWE loves filler. They believe it keeps the viewer tuned in while long matches turn people off. Me? I think an occasional long bout on TV would great if it involved people that the fans care about, but with so many options for people now the companies do have to be cognizant of that and have to do what they can to keep eyeballs on the product.

Do you suppose that the problem with Ambrose being pushed to the top will be, of all things, wardrobe?  His ring gear is jeans and a white tank-top/under shirt.  It would really go against his character to have marketing on his shirt and it goes against the E's philosophy to push anyone they can't market the balls off.

I don’t think so at all. They love Cena for the mercy that he sells, for sure, but I don’t think the lack of bright colors would preclude Ambrose for getting a shot at the top.

Since the WWE currently doesn't have a world champion (I don't count people that don't show up), wouldn't you think it would be the best time to push the importance of ALL titles instead of having the champions consistently lose?  When will Vince stop force feeding us John, Randy, and Roman and start listening to who the fans want. Luke, Bray, Dolph, Seth, Dean and when he gets back Bad News Barrett?

To be fair, a good amount of fans like John, Randy and Roman. With that said, I have said for a while now that the secondary titles have been neglected and should be treated better by the company. I don’t think it should be done at the expense of the WWE Title, but there is no reason that they couldn’t be pushed more than they are.

So apparently WWE have announced that Royal Rumble 2015 will have 40 entrants.  Last time that happened, Del Rio won & the commentators would often say how he won the ‘Biggest Rumble Ever’ or words to that effect.  As he’s no longer with the company & they parted on bad terms, do you think they’ll sneak an extra person into the 2015 Rumble (possibly by having a tag team from the past as a single surprise entrant) so they can give the title ‘Winner of the Biggest Rumble Ever’ to someone else?

Not at all, no. They will just do what they always do when they don’t like the actual history and ignore it.

I am so freakin bored with the John Cena show. I get the fact that the children love him but what about the adults who follow Raw faithfully?   Ambrose is interesting a good talker and grwat in the ring but it seems that he is pushed under Cena in the same coexisting feud because creative has nothing else for Cena.  Is that fair to Ambrose or the fans? What are your thoughts? 

I felt that way early in Raw last week, when Cena was glomming the spotlight, but then when Dean walked on him, and later laid him out, it gave me hope. As for why adults like Cena? Some people like the guy on the white horse. That is what makes us all different.
