HOW I WOULD FEEL IF I WERE A WWE WRESTLER AND I WAS WORKED ABOUT THE SETH ROLLINS' "INJURY", LETTING JADE LEAVE AEW, TRICK IS A STUD AND MORE

If Seth Rollins and Triple H really worked the talent and faked that injury, how would you feel if you worked for him and were a friend of Rollins?

Honestly?  If they lied to me I would never fully trust either of them again.  I would accept that they thought they needed to lie to everyone to keep the ruse a secret, and clearly as WWE Unreal has showed us HHH hates secrets getting out, but, I would also think that they don’t trust me enough to keep that secret.  The boss?  Well to be honest I only ever trusted one boss that I ever had.  They love you when it behooves them too and when it doesn’t you are expendable.  Now if I were friendly with Rollins, and he lied to me, it would damage our personal relationship.  I would still trust him in the ring, since he’s a true pro, but I would realize at that point that we were never really friends to begin with if he chose to keep a Triple H secret over trusting that I could be told about it and keep it to myself.  It’s a dangerous slippery slope to start working the talent.  I hope HHH realizes that.  There is plenty of history to teach him the lesson if he missed that day at booker school.

Can you give us a history of the term jabroni?  Who came up with it?

I can’t tell you who came up with it but I can tell you that one of my childhood friends’ family was Italian and they used the word all the time.  I started hearing it around wrestling decades ago, I am guessing when someone called a job guy a jabroni.  Obviously, the person who took the word to the next level was The Rock.

Do you think that there is any way that WWE doesn’t renew Karrion Kross? I’ve seen some reports that he has not been offered a contract and his deal is up this month, letting him walk with how over he is right now would be absurd.

In WWE there is always a way that they let talents leave.  They have shown us that in the past.  I have heard the same thing, that his contract is near its end.  That being the case, I could see them letting it expire.  I hope that they keep him and give him a legitimate shot, but we will see.  As I said after SummerSlam, Kross needed to win against Sami Zayn or he it told me that they weren’t going to get behind him.  I hope HHH proves me wrong.

After watching Jade Cargill get better every week, how could Tony Khan let her leave AEW?

I have heard Jade say in the past that while she was in AEW she asked to be taught more and it never happened.  That would have been a great place to start, for sure.  With that said, she has had STAR written all over her since she debuted for AEW. I think she would have longed to work in the big time and would have ended up in WWE no matter what Tony did.

What's your opinion of Trick Williams? He seems past due to hit the main roster, and there's not much else for him to do in NXT from my viewpoint. The TNA crossover seems to have given him something fresh to do, but that'll end too.

I like Trick a lot and he definitely will be on the main roster at some point, I have no doubt of that.  With that said, there are two important things to consider here.  One, NXT has a solid TV deal with CW and that means that they need talent on that show to draw ratings.  Beyond that, there is also the issue of placement on the main roster.  If he is called up there should be a good spot for him.  If they don’t have that spot available, he’s better off being a top guy in NXT for now.
