Can you settle a bet?  Does WWE own the rights to Georgia Championship Wrestling footage?

I hope you bet on WWE, because we are told that GCW material from the early 1980s is inside the WWE archives, although they have yet to utilize any of that content on the WWE Network beyond the infamous Tommy Rich vs. Buzz Sawyer Last Battle of Atlanta.  No idea how much material is under the GCW umbrella in the WWE vaults, however.

Who decides who will be the color commentator on Ring of Honor TV?  Marty Scurll this week was awful.  Calling Silas Young "The Real Last Man," almost no match analysis, standing up dancing to Guerrillas of Destiny's theme music.   He would make some 80's heel commentators seem like Jesse Ventura by comparison.

I get it, you didn't like Scurll.  Obviously, ROH's booker Delirious makes that call.  Dud you ever think Scurll was acting like a heel to get you not to like him?

How come you've never had Sabu on the site for an interview?

He doesn't want to do them unless he's getting a payday for it and we don't pay for interviews.

Currently WWE have apx.40 women under contractwho are trained wrestlers between the 3 brands.This number includes Nikki Bella (currently off doing Dancing With the Stars),Paige and Summer Rae who are both coming off injuries.My question is,seeing as how they have such a large number of women do you think it would be smart to try a women's tag team division at least in NXT whefe women's matches still matter and they are given enough time to put on uality matches?

I don't think they need an official division.  They can just team up when stories dictate that is needed.

I really enjoyed the Mae Young Classic, but obviously a lot of these women aren't going to get signed, so where can I follow them?

I would suggest you start watching SHIMMER out of Chicago, which is very much the blueprint for the current modern day version of women's wrestling.  You can find them at www.SHIMMERWrestling.com.
