Alex Pawlowski Q&A questions

Okay we've got to close the questions forum now. Going to get started with the Q&A podcast in a little bit. Hope you all enjoy! --Alex

Fightful Select

Any update on Sting and Orange Cassidy's injury status after their huge collision last week? :P

Kate Elizabeth

Is the announce table not breaking when intended the most awkward thing in wrestling?

Cameron Hutton

For someone that’s trying to get into journalism more, do you have any tips/tricks?

Skylar Russell

Hey Alex! Do you happen to watch ROH or keep up with the product? If so, do you have opinions on it?

Skylar Russell

Just as a reminder guys, if you ask "backstage reaction" questions or "have I heard anything about this wrestler's contract or that wrestler's heat with management" stuff, I probably won't be of much help. Perfectly willing to wildly speculate, though! --Alex

Fightful Select

Hey Alex, love all your stuff…what do you think about the rumor of the finals of the queen of the ring, taking place at the Sands of time?

Matt Curran

Hey Alex, I've been trying to do some local theater work in my town but I have a bit of stage fright, any tips you could lend to maybe help get over some stage fright?

Riley Walker

How did you get into theater work? Did you have formal training?

e d

Would you want WWE sold to a major media network (NBC/Universal being the obvious option but Disney or others could)

Anthony Romano

Lady Koalis wants to know: Is there significance of the Cruella frame for your wedding pic? & I’m curious about the 3 mic metal circle.

Wallace Koalis

Hey Alex what do you think will be Vince’s legacy as it pertains to his impact on professional wrestling?

Bryant Heath

Who out of the women's division gets pitched or pitches the most ideas that wind up either getting scrapped or rejected for whatever reason?

ARose Lab

Assuming the rule of opinionated questions aren't applied to this Q and A... - Does Alexa Bliss' fued with Eva Marie devalue or limit Alexa's potential/work, as we've seen her doing some of the stand out work in the thunder dome Era.

Coby Galenzoski

With the ever growing relationship with NJPW and AEW/Impact could you see in the future(not immediate future but future) tournaments like the G1 take place in all of these countries/shows and include roster members of the each other companies compete

Matthew Graham

Hey Alex, Do you think Vince is worried about AEW possibly singing Punk and Danielson. He just seems the type that he still doesn't worry. Thanks for doing the Q & A this week 😀

NateF_81

What was the backstage reaction to the Rolling Loud show and how that all went down? Were they disappointed in the lack of crowd reaction or was it more just about the exposure? Also whats the deal with the flashback highlights for every wrestler before every match now?

Rj Kelly

Alex, in your opinion, as it is right now, is there any way WWE could save or salvage Nikki ASH's character AND storyline, while keeping her as the champ?

Harry Yazawa

Choose one Giannis plays his entire career with the Bucks but never makes the Finals again or he gets traded after next season but the Bucks get LeBron James Jr and go onto win 5 championships

Richman

New Pateron member so this may have been asked before. But what’s Marty Scurll doing and any chance he signs with anyone.

Michael Coriell

If 3 Trades had to be made between AEW and NXT what Singles Male, Singles Female, and Tag Teams from each brand would you Trade

KC Walton

Just some love and support from me to Alex. Thank you for all you do at Fightful!

Ricardo Name TBD

There were reports last month about Shawn Daivari re-signing with the WWE following his release from the company last year. Since those reports, we have seen him pop up on MLW and have had reports about him being backstage at Impact. Did he actually re-sign with WWE? If so, what allowed him to be at MLW?

Michael I

What do you think about the whole Aaron Rodgers situation?

Cody Stucky

Has WWE been in talks to officially sign RJ City to a contract?

Dustin

With talent going over so well in their hometowns, has their been any news on what could be cooking for Ortiz and Santana to come home to NYC? Maybe a title match? Feel better SRS and thanks for holding us down Alex!

I Am La Lucha

Hey Alex, what wrestling (if any) are you liking right now outside of your sphere of coverage for Fightful? Personally, outside of AEW I've been getting into all things Joshi this year and have been enjoying so much. Great name btw ;)

Alex Levy

Alex, thank you for giving us so much joy from your misery on Sour Graps! Are you excited for the NBA’s new rule against “non-basketball like” movements (aka less flopping or moving into a player to draw a foul)?

With all the injuries and botched, do you think Tony Khan will ever introduce a training or performance center to AEW? A lot of the wrestlers have to learn how to sell also.

Frank Gradia

Is there any word on if Okada is coming to AEW? Meltzer said he was a few months ago and then nothing came of it. Maybe it's a COVID issue?

raymond moore

Bucks in six baybay! What's the worse piece of merch: America's moist wanted or the lily doll?

Jake Schwall

Tony Kahn was on just busted open and said don't always believe what you read including from bodyslam

Kyle

What would be more likely to happen first, another women’s main event on Dynamite or two women’s matches on Dynamite?

Do you guys feel AEW and WWE are fearful of a second shutdown and are making plans for the fall if that happens?

Joetourious

How would you book CM Punks AEW debut? I’d have Hangman beat Kenny. Have him celebrate let It soothe then hit Cult of Personality.

Joe

What do you envision for ember moon’s next feud and will it be main roster or still in nxt?

Matt

Is the endgame for Andrade vs The Death Triangle for Andrade to simply take over the group and kick PAC out of it?

Michael Grooms

I heard Bronson Reed said he’d like to be a part of the Bloodline storyline with Roman Reigns. Do you think this could happen?

Do you think Piper Niven will ultimately be able to be successful in WWE? (I've been a fan since her Viper days, so I know she has the tools to do it)

Dev W.

Do you think last night was intended to be the beginning of a Kyle O'Reilly heel turn, or was that just the CWC's crowd reaction? #BucksIn6

kdk176

With aew seemingly getting Bryan and punk, who are some big name free agents wwe could try and get? The only 3 I can even think of would be Brock, braun and tessa

Zach Ferguson

Alex, if you had to predict right now who do you think will hold the AEW titles by the end of 2021?

Tanner Lee

Tkme for some new merch! Will your next t-shirt be a Sour Patch Kid with your face on it?

Michael Adams

For recent subscribers what's the most sour episode of sour graps that you would recommend?

Reece Hayes

Alex, what do you think WWE should do with Dominic Mysterio, and what do you think they WILL do with him? Will he ever get the training he needs before it's too late, or do you think he'll never make a good wrestler?

Michael Adams

Do you have any insight on Gonzales is getting called up from nxt 🤔

Kyle

Who do you see taking the tag titles of Dark Order? Assuming they take them from YB

Matteo

Are you in favor of hangman winning at All Out or losing then being built back up with the power of friendship from the Dark Order and getting the title at Revolution.

Boris Nisnevich

Was the nattie injury a work because the booking of the ladies dvison looks scripted worse then vince Russo a angle

Hey Alex I’m up here! Do you think Braun Strowman goes back to WWE or tries something new? I would love to see him in NJPW.

Daniel Ralda

Was watching an interview on wrestling perspective with CM Punk last month and he's got long hair. Maybe we will get the cm punk of roh days with long hair and shorts.

CHRIS JOHNSON

With all the hype surrounding Bryan and Punk, do you think that it would make sense for them to debut in AEW sooner than originally planned to capitalize on that?

John S

Alex, Sour Graps is amazing also glad to be hitting my 1 year on Select 7/31 best bday ever to myself! Who would you say are your wrestling MVPs and LVPs for each company through 7 months of 2021?

Matt Payne

Hi Sean. Any word on the former IIconics, or I guess now known as The IInspiration?

Dave Stroble

Is this five labors of Jericho storyline a build to his retirement match against MJF at All Out?

TOP FIVE FAVORITE JEREMY LAMBERT HEADLINES?

In the spirit of Alex filling in, who does he see as AEW and WWE's Giannis (i.e. who throws the team on their back into the future) and who are the key role players?

Nicholai Crees

Alex you’re booking AEW.. Who do you have punk and Bryan go into a program with first

Tom Shucksmith

Does Dakota Kai beat Raquel Gonzalez for her title

Shawn Garner

What are your thoughts on the reaction to Cardona’s deathmatch win at GCW homecoming, moreso the crowd hucking beer cans and bottles into the ring, but also its impact on indie wrestling?

Is there any validity to the rumors that AEW is worried about COVID and how it will affect all out?
