Any chance of Zeus in the WWE Hall of Fame?

Sure, I can see them putting him in the celebrity wing one day.  He headlined WWF PPVs and No Holds Barred has a nice nostalgic love that surrounds it.  Why not?

I love GLOW on Netflix and I know I’m hardly the only one. It’s something that I can enjoy as a wrestling fan and my fiancé can enjoy as a drama/comedy. Could you see WWE trying to capitalize on the popularity of the show by having a cameo by one of the actresses in character, perhaps at the Royal Rumble? I’d like to think that Zoya The Destroyer or Sheila The She-Wolf would get a good pop from the crowd.

It's possible WWE could do that, especially if they timed it to promote the series' next season.  If I was WWE, I'd want Kia Stevens to appear, since she is a legitimate pro wrestler and could deal with being out there live as a performer.  The others actors don't have that sort of seasoning and the last thing you want is for them to look absolutely terrible on TV, because it would do nothing for WWE or GLOW.  But, I like the idea as a cool cross-promotional vehicle.

Anymore on why MVP was released from Major League Wrestling?  Kind of a tough blow for him to be pretty much dominated in his feud against Sami Callihan then be released.

No one at MLW has been willing to comment on the situation.

When WWE performers appear at comic-cons, are they paid by the con or WWE?

Unless they have it in their contracts that they can make outside appearances, it usually goes like this: the third-party bringing in the talent books them through WWE, then pays WWE.  WWE pays the talent.

When Smackdown goes to FOX, why are they saying it will be part of FOX Sports?

It will air on the FOX Network (the same network that airs the Simpsons, etc.) but they are being placed under the FOX Sports umbrella, nothing more.

What are the odds of Donald Trump returning to buy Raw again?

Pretty much zero.
