So... that volatile Twitter battle between Ronda and Becky. You think any of that was OK’d by WWE?

All if it was.  It’s part of the story that they are telling on TV.  From what I have been hearing, it’s part of the evolution of Ronda’s character as they know she will be the heel to Becky’s face.

Speaking of which, I saw that days after Becky was supposedly arrested and processed on RAW— ostensibly making her character even more persona non grata in a storyline sense—WWE released a t-shirt with her prison mugshot on it. Even though the character was suspended. And broke the law. Is it even possible to suspend disbelief anymore?

Sure it is, some of the people booing Daniel Bryan are doing it right now.  With that said, WWE is not about presenting their product as being reality any more, so the days of them protecting that aspect are long gone.

With Gargano, Ciampa, Black, and Ricochet eventually being at the main roster full time. This leaves empty hole and opens many doors for those in the NXT roster and the Performance Center. If it was up to you, who would put those holes in to bring NXT further into the future?

I am not big on fantasy booking because, in WWE’s case, I know it will never happen, and in NXT’s case I like the stories they tell me and I just want to be entertained.  I will just say that I am sure Triple H and his team will be ready to continue to entertain me.  They always are.

As a German guy I don't understand why every on air talent in WWE, including the commentators, promotes each Pay-per-view with "..three weeks from Sunday...", "...one week from tomorrow...", etc.. Even on the small Titan Trons we see "One week from Sunday". For Christ sake, simply use the date of the event! It's much more complicated to tell the audience how many days from Sunday the event will happen. I don't get it.

I think it’s a culture thing.  In the US, people tend to be less focused on marking dates and more focused on how far away an event is.  WWE tries to remind them how much time is left before the show.  I talk to people all the time that don’t even know what today’s date is, so it makes sense that WWE will reminded them about events in a way that they comprehend.

Is there some truth to the storyline that Mr. Mizanin never once mentioned that he is proud of his son?  Is Miz's dad really that much of a tool?

WWE did this video from “My Son Is A Superstar” a while back.  At 8:11 he said he was "very proud" when Mike main-evented WrestleMania.  You aren't suppsed to remember that but there ya go.
