It seems to me that lately Ryback is being given quality opportunities to become a solid face on the roster. This past week he was given a slot on RAW to deliver his heartfelt speech and connect with the crowd, and what better way to push a babyface than to put them in a program with an anti-American heel? My question is, do you think this is an attempt by WWE to take a legit shot at making him a top star just to spite Punk considering the recent shoot interview where he made a point to call Ryback out by name in such grand fashion?

They are definitely trying to get him over and it’s nice to see them do that with someone for a change. They don’t concern themselves with what CM Punk says about talents.

I just get this feeling that Roman Reigns is not the right person for the spot to take on Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania. How bout Ryback to take on Brock for the title. I feel people would be more behind RYback than Reigns at this point. I also feel this would be the "passing of the torch" as far as The Next Big Thing. Roman Reigns would be a great opponent for John Cena at WrestleMania and could give the chance for fans to behind Roman Reigns over Cena. What are your thoughts of Ryback vs Brock and Cena vs Roman at Wrestlemania?

I agree that Reigns hasn’t stepped up yet. Ryback vs. Brock……hmm. I don’t hate it, but I also don’t know if it’s enough of a draw to be the Mania main event. Reigns, if he gets over with the average fans, would probably be the better draw.

In a world where we can bend time and space to make make fantasy match ups happen, which do you think would have been the more amazing match? 1996 Shawn Michaels vs. 1990 Sting, 2008 Edge vs. Today's Seth Rollins, or 2000 Kurt Angle vs. 1995 Bret Hart?

Hmmm, I think Angle-Hart wins that.

My question is who will takeover NXT when Triple H is taking over the duties of both Raw and Smackdown in the near future?

Unless you know something about Vince McMahon that I don’t (and that he doesn’t), HHH is not taking over Raw and Smackdown any time soon. He heads the creative team, but as he said on the conference call we covered last month, he is a manager while Vince is the idea guy. It all runs through Vince.

Why have The Authority lose its power at all if they were going to be back on TV in only a month time?  And would it been better if John Cena was the one who got beat up instead of Edge and Christian?

Vince would tell you that it’s entertainment and that The Authority are heels. He would say since it made you mad, it worked. I wouldn’t agree, but what can you do. I am with you, they should have stayed off longer than a month.
