Jillian Hall had commented on Mickie James Instagram post “Well I thought it was just me” so was this not an isolated incident? Was Mickie just the first one to make it public?

1.  What are your thoughts on the pre-match promos ROH has been doing for their weekly tv matches since they returned from the pandemic? In the beginning, I really liked that we were getting to hear more from the wrestlers, but now I wonder if they're too long because we rarely get more than two matches a week on an episode. 2.  Having a great women's division seems to be there for the taking for ROH this summer should they have the motivation and backing from Sinclair to do so. Outside of the obvious with them needing to make a full court press on Chelsea Green to bring her in, have you heard any rumors on other high profile names they might be looking to bring in, such as the IIconics, Thea Trinidad, Mickie James, Allison Kay, etc?  Thanks. 

Paul Anthony Moss

I watched AEW for the first time ever yesterday and the commentary really ruined the experience for me. Not wishing for anyone to lose their job, but how much longer do you see JR in his position?

Dev W.

Do you think WWE will ever have to face a reckoning for how they treat their female legends?

Dev W.

Which of the streaming services do you usually find the most user-friendly? WWE Network/Peacock, UFC Fight Pass or NJPW World?

Jake from the Windy City

Hey Sean. Im wondering if you could explain the process of a WWE fued? From talking to Vince, the production side, preperation and training. Finally the match and after. Maybe something Jimmy could help with or discuss on a different show. Thanks and keep up the great work ✌

Who’s stan accounts do you least want to piss off? What is the most baffling thing a source has told you?

Cameron Hutton

Have you done any interviews with bookers? Specifically on booking? Curious to see their psychology behind match making

Charlie Williams Jr.

2. AEW seems to be building groups/teams for the Women's Division. Any news if Women's Tag Titles are coming soon?

MarkyMark_MARK

1. Any info on what TNT considers good Viewership and Ratings numbers for Unopposed Dynamite?

MarkyMark_MARK

1. Is there an update on the debut of new IMPACT knockouts besides Wilde and Ellering? 2. Does IMPACT have a shot at getting Samoa Joe?

1. Any idea as to why Tay Conti is not an official member of the dark order? (sorry if this is already explained) 2. Do you think NXT releases or any others may still happen in wwe in the coming weeks?

Omar S.

What do you know about a rift between Cody and the other EVPs? I’ve heard rumors they haven’t been on speaking terms for a while?

Just Some Guy

1. Have you heard from any AEW stars comments on the AEW commentary or the company itself not putting over/advertising Impact/Rebellion? 2. Is there any word on Marty Scurll working with NJPW because a few months or so ago there was rumors going around that he had recorded something for NJ Strong and then the heat came up with him and speaking out came back out and then NOTHING?

Matthew Graham

Was Mandy’s WM fall considered just one of those things or was there a feeling it could/should have been prevented?

Becky Dayecarter

1) Were there ever plans for Bo Dallas to get a bigger push when he debuted? 2) What’s the latest with Velveteen?

Oliver

JR said AEW is looking to start touring in July, and their website lists dates and locations for August not at Daily's. How optimistic is AEW they'll be able to be touring in the next few months? Was there any discussion post Wrestlemania of having some live crowds for Raw and Smackdown like they do NXT, or was it always the thought to return to the Thunderdome?

anakinjmt

1. When's Chad Gable's contract up and where do you think he should go? 2.) Any early speculation on what the card is gonna be for Double or Nothing, what would you like to see?

Reece Hayes

Idk of you mention this prior, but any news on Zelina Vega? I think aew woman are improving but wouldn't it benefit from acquiring some wwe ladies to help them, not be so green. Thoughts?

Adrian Zavala

1. Did Sami Zayn need to get any form of approval for releasing his own t shirt for his project? 2. Whose call was the "wrestlemania" addition to Backlash and for what?

Coby Galenzoski

1. I have heard you say that higher ratings = more money which is true. IT might just be me but it feels like Vince is happy with the guaranteed amount that the tv deals will always bring in? It's like he is fine on this plateau? What do you think? 2. Will the next Fightful mag still be available for digital or will it just be print.

NateF_81

With the amount of women aew now has and their focus on tagteam wrestling generally, have you heard anything about women's tag titles and would you think it a mistake if they're not introduced soon? On that note, considering how many more titles the men have on aew, do you think it would be a really bad look if they introduced a trios title before the women get something else to fight for?

Ben Williams

Do you think a prospect draft involving AEWs various factions is a viable idea, perhaps if they paired it with a prospect tournament?

Jim McShea

Evening Sean, why wasn’t Rich Swann on AEW programming? Have a nice day & FTF ❤️

JJ Gyllenhaal

1) If you could change 1 AEW finisher, who’s would you change, why and what would you change it to? 2) WWE reported an 11.5% drop in revenue in Q1 2021 compared to Q1 2020. Viewership on RAW is also obviously way down. What do you think the breaking point will be for them to stop insulting the viewers with shit storylines? How far will they go before they realize their product(s) are dogshit and that people WANT to watch, but dont have time to sit through 5-7 hours of garbage television each week? (ive been tuned out of WWE since they did the lashley/lana/rusev cuck angle, legitimately broke a remote control and stopped watching everything except Royal Rumbles and Wrestlemanias)

WrestleOps on Twitter: (1) Is there any update on Billie Kay’s situation as in have you heard anything about her future in pro-wrestling currently? (Shes my favorite and I care for her) (2) Also regarding NXT call ups. We usually get call ups after Mania, so we’re there any that you heard that we’re expected for this year, or was/are there no plans for any call ups this year? Also have a wonderful and safe day Sean! 💪

A

Where is all this Impact-AEW stuff going, because if it is just the omega and good bros then can this be considered a waste of everyone's time?(A very fun and entertaining time though) Have you found out any details on the May 5th blood and guts about it being a one match show and how that's going to look or be done? Thanks you all a Fightful for always busting ass abd giving us The Best Fucking content for covering wrestling on the internet!!

Jeremy Brownlee

mlw will they still have their week show on youtube in the spring?

massgamer99

1) I recently found out who Rockin' Robin was. She has the 4th longest women championship reign at 502 days. Granted she only wrestled 3 times (according to profightdb). Do you know why she's never mentioned by WWE or not in the HOF?

Unabashedly Reggie

nwa sub numbers high or low?

massgamer99

1. If a wrestler is released/granted their release, can they choose to negotiate or forego the 90 day no compete clause like Andrade did? I've always assumed that there's no compete clause if the contract ends like it did with Mox. 2. Is Triller buying Fite TV a good thing or a bad thing for the wrestling promotions that uses Fite TV to stream their shows or PPVs?

Sheila Antonio

Any update on summerslam? And is wrestlemania gonna be 2 nights going forward?

Aaron Mashteare

1) do you think the mania weather could scare wwe from doing outside events in april in the future? 2) are you shocked and/or disappointed by the lack of crossover or even mentioning between AEW/IMPACT in this relationship?

Jake Schwall

Just curious if you've heard anything regarding velveteen dream lately. Is he still around at tapings and stuff and just not being used? They should just cut him loose if thats the case.

e d

Thoughts on how close to the truth the wrestling side of young rock is

1) Do you think the WWE writers and creative have been even more lazy recently due to the fact there’s no fans at shows to hold them accountable for the drizzling shit they put out there? 2) I was always a huge fan of the 3D as a finisher, why do you think no other tag teams have since adopted it?

Shawn Murray

Do you know more of the story behind the Tim White Suicides segments in the past and why they did it?

Reid Greenspan

What do you think headlines summerslam?

Ben Taylor

2. Is it time to give Dustin Rhodes his flowers on the AEW women's division and its improvement/development? I'm genuinely more excited for their matches than matches on any other show men or women.

KingoftheNorth

Lot has been said about the lack of promotion on AEW's part about the omega/swan match. Do you think there is some deeper reason for this that we're not seeing, they cant be that shortsighted can they?

e d

Whats next for roderick strong?

Ben Taylor

When do you think main roster wwe will get crowds back for weekly television?

Any news on Roman Reigns getting new music? Thought it would be at Wrestlemania.

Reid Greenspan

1. I think I asked on the List and Ya Boy show about NXT putting its best step forward. I really don't think they've had a good stretch of shows coming out of their solid Takeover 2 nights. What is their big money match right now in your opinion?

KingoftheNorth

Can you see WWE setting up an arena-like limited seating setting similar to what NXT is doing for Raw and SD, given the lessening of expenses from the past year?

Who do you think are some of the most underrated Luchadors/ Cruiserweights in the past 10 years or so?

Matt Payne

1. Now that Bad Bunny got his moment, when does Wale get his and what does that look like? 2. What do you make of the Rebellion logo having an Omega sign in it? Loving my new Helix. Thanks for the recommendation!

Ray Callahan Jr

What is the locker room morale after these releases that took place last week?

Danny Valentin

I know this is just speculation but do you think if WWE appreciated tag teams, the majority of the cuts wouldn't have been "necessary". (Yes I know they weren't actually necessary.)

Do you think WWE goes back 2 Full Capacity Live Arenas after Summerslam

Shawn Garner

Interesting comments from Daniel Bryan lately, if you had to guess do you think he resigns with WWE or is it a 50/50 shot?

Danny Valentin

What do you feel are the most under rated and over rated gimmick matches?

Michael Bunge

If you were a heel what kind of promo would you cut to get under the fans skin? I’ve been watching 2015/2016 PWG and was wondering if there’s ever been a better time for independent wrestling? Everyone’s signed now and it seems like the years of having Ospreay, Young Bucks, Ricochet, and Adam Cole on one show are over, so what do you think is the best year for Indy wrestling?

Bryant Heath

Did the folks who worked the wrestlemania smackdown (but not WM itself) get a WM payday?

Elaquent

Is there any news on why Nikki Cross hasn't been on TV? She could really help Raw's lack of depth.

Have you heard any updates on the AEW console game? Who do you expect to be the first of the recent WWE releases to show up in AEW and what would you like to see them do?

Ricky Schmidt

Do you know how long Ryu mizunami is sticking around in the US for? She’s awesome on dark and elevation

Elaquent

What would you say are the most protected finishers currently today?

Matt Payne
