I was wondering your thoughts on Gamechanger Wrestling?

I haven't been to a show yet but I appreciate that they are carving their own path, whether that be their version of Death Match tournaments, the fun chaos that comes with building around Joey Janela and the very smart way they promote themselves on social media.  I have to appreciate a promotion that wants to book Nick Gage vs, Haku and Janela vs. Hakushi.  Just fun, random matches that are offbeat, thus they create some buzz.  I really like the off the wall creativity involved.

It’s not actually a question but I just needed to tell someone who might understand: this week I fast forwarded more of Raw than I watched. What is going on? Thanks and keep up the great work. 

What is going on is you didn't enjoy the show so you skipped forward hoping to find something else on the show you'd enjoy.

Why did Edge retire?  Will he ever return?

WWE opted to medically disqualify him from competing due to spinal stenosis.  He will never be placed back in the ring again.

When is Paige returning?

See the answer above.  Read the second line.  Paige will not be returning to the ring for WWE.

Who is the next WWE star you'd like to see a documentary about in the vein of Ric Flair and Andre the Giant?

The easy answer for me is Roddy Piper.  He was the antagonist that create the spark for Wrestlemania.  How do you not want to document everything you can?

You were raked over the coals for a long time for reporting WWE had retired Paige.  Now that it's come out to be true, how many people actually apologized to you for knocking your reporting.

Zero apologies, but that isn't important to be.  None of the criticism fazed me, because I knew my reporting was correct.  It wasn't a story I was happy about breaking, so I don't see any need to be happy I was proven correct.  Paige's in-ring career was over.  That was and is a tragedy.
