SRS Q&A Questions

Hey Manny, Patreon messed up and I missed this. I think their plans with her have changed a lot in the past few months. They keep stopping and starting in this regard and nobody seems to know why!

Fightful Select

Do you see the Women’s Tag Titles becoming NXT exclusive after the Women’s Dusty Classic? Any news on WWE’s plans for Sonya Deville?

Closed AF

Fightful Select

Do you see WWE going in better direction after Vince finally steps away?

Why does AEW try so hard to cut off the mic after someone swears? Do you think AEW could do a Blood and Guts now that there are some fans in attendance? My third thing isn’t much of a question but I just wanted to thank you guys so much for all the smiles you brought me. The tail end of 2020 was crap and you guys really brought me a lot of happiness during that time, so thank you. ❤️

Bryant Heath

Do you think a Queen of the Ring style tournament would work better as a long term storyline to build to a big match at a PPV or as a stand-alone network special?

Dev W.

Do you have any insight as to how Royal Rumble matches are put together?

Dev W.

2. I know this week is jammed but any plans to check out the Nightmare Factory Showcase?

Kevin Steets

1. Sydel mentioned Cima on "Road to" this week. Would be great to get Stronghearts back.. Has OWE been running shows during this?

Kevin Steets

Do you think McIntyre will beat Goldberg at the rumble? If he doesn’t, do you think Goldberg will then face Roman at mania?

Shawn Hulver

1). Any chance the AEW/Impact relationship could lead to impact taping future episodes at Daily’s Place? Especially with AEW now moving things to Miami. 2). Who do you think is the right choice to eventually dethrone Omega after what I assume will be a lengthy run with multiple HW titles? My pick is Hangman. AEW tends to book far in advanced and it would be a great moment if they have larger crowds by that time. 3). With Goldberg facing McIntyre now and hopefully losing, I would think Reigns Vs Goldberg would be off the table for Mania. Who do you think Reigns would fight otherwise? Bryan? Big E?

Dobby_TheBrain

Who do you think was the better mma commentary team Bas & Mauro or Rogan & Goldberg?

Manuel Rosales

1) any idea on length of WK ramp at the dome and how does it compare to mania ramps at stadiums? Mania 33 in orlando stands out to me recently for ramps 2) where does Tanahashi's hair rank all time? 3) what was your sleep schedule like during wrestle kingdom and have you fully recovered from all nighters? Thanks for all the coverage, especially this week

Jake Schwall

I have a gut feeling that they will have Goldberg vs Drew at the Rumble & rematch @ Mania. That way they can use up two of his contacted match's. Hope not for Drew's safety.

NateF_81

What's the thing that gets you most excited about Select coming off Patreon?

Bryan D'Ambra

Where do you see the top of the NJPW card going with (possibly) Naito and Tanahashi being closer to the end of their careers? Sanada, Evil, Ibushi, White(?), Okada, Osprey, any you think might come up?

Bryan D'Ambra

Do you think 2021 can be the year a superstar can break out of the mold finally?

Zachary Schemmel

Does liking videos exclusively to Select like Sour Graps or Retro Reviews help out the Youtube numbers at all?

Zachary Schemmel

With the weather changing do you see AEW going to a indoor venue? I know it’s FL.. but it’s come up in a couple of podcasts

Charlie Williams Jr.

3. How badly will the State of Emergency affect New Japan? Will they have to postpone shows or pause again like they did last year?

Sheila Antonio

2. Reeeeeeeeeally not looking forward to Goldberg vs McIntyre as a program. Do you see this as a filler feud for the Rumble or will this go as far as WrestleMania?

Sheila Antonio

1. Now that that they've shown the promo of Mox basically standing in a New Japan Strong ring, does this mean Mox will only have one appearance to defend his title against KENTA or will they use Mox as much as they can (like film like a month's wroth of shows with him)?

Sheila Antonio

I’ve been very impressed with Mandy and Dana as a team lately, do you see them winning the tag titles anytime soon?

Manny Carvalho Santos

With Eva Marie signing do you think they didn’t have her come back at legends night because they wanted to have her return be more impactful like rumble or something like that!?

Manny Carvalho Santos

What are some wrestling moves that look easy that you have found are actually difficult to perform?

Dev W.

1. Are the pay scales in New Japan comparable to WWE? 2. Was the choke slam through the top of the cell in the mankind undertaker match planned?

Shawn Murray

Happy new year Fightful. Do you think Sonya is a dark horse for the rumble win? Sasha/Sonya could be really good

Antony Fitzpatrick

1. Will WWE ever stop relying so much on legends of the past? 2. Do you think WWE missed an opportunity to have IRS & Randy interact on RAW? 3. Do you think Bianca Belair or Sonya Deville will have the better 2021 in WWE?

DEN Unlimited

What are the chances we eventually see Omega vs. Ibushi, especially as heel vs face?

Reid Greenspan

What would you say the odds are Marty is signed by either New Japan or WWE by end of the year?

Matt Payne

Is there any update on what Jazzy Gabert is doing now?

Reid Greenspan

Do you think we eventually get a version of an LAX stable in AEW, especially with already having 3 former members?

Reid Greenspan

3 Of all the shakeups Vince has come up with down through the years, what is the best and what is the worst?

Ronan C

2 Would Kevin Kelly have been a better choice for AEW as weekly play by play guy, maybe using JR on PPVs and special occasions?

Ronan C

1. Do you predict and big defections from WWE to AEW or New Japan in 2021?

Ronan C

What kind of revenue, if any, does Impact get from having a channel on the Pluto TV app? In storyline, doesn’t AJ have a gripe to get another shot at Drew’s title seeing as Miz inserted himself in the TLC match without technically cashing in? Did Carmella get new music because of the character change, the CFO$ situation, or a little of both? Thanks Sean. Looking forward to another great year from Fightful.

Kristopher Bordine

Also wanted to give a separate shoutout to Wildboy for all the kind words after I lost my mom in October. Definitely a standup dude!

Don’t have a question as I haven’t been able to watch WWE before the Q&A posts come up but wanted to say Happy New Year to you and the rest of the fightful team SRS! You guys made a horrible 2020 great for me as a wrestling fan. Keep up the great work in 2021!

Hi Sean, second year of a two night Tokyo Dome show, I’m personally finding this easier to watch than one 8 hour show, how are you finding this? & will WrestleMaina be two nights again? Have a nice day & FTF ❤️

JJ Gyllenhaal

Jay White had an outstanding promo post WK Night 2. If he leaves NJPW where would rank him amongst free agents from Japan in the last few years?

Matt Payne

1. Is Ricochet's contract still due to expire in January? 2. With ROH parting ways with Marty Scurll, and his salary being off the books now, if available, could you see ROH making a run at signing Ricochet or another upper-tier wrestler that’s available? 3. With how successful it’s been splitting up Wrestle Kingdom into a 2-day event the past 2 years, do you ever see WWE going to a Saturday-Sunday format for Wrestlemania in the near future? Or is that a non-starter while Vince is in charge?

Paul Anthony Moss

Do you feel a full heel jon moxley could be the absolute piece of shit to make MJF a good guy? You have said about wanting to live in Toronto but if you worked for Inside the Ropes would you want to live in Glasgow? As someone who does not watch NJPW why is the intercontinental and heavieweight championships always on the same guy and not separated?

Cameron Hutton

1. Have you heard any updates on the future of the TNT title. TK mentioned -1 as lifetime champ. Is that just an honorary thing they did for him, or are we going to see a major change to the title? 2. We saw a lot of throwback concepts in 2020 with Halloween Havoc/Bash, etc. Have you heard if anything else like that is planned for 2021? Personally, I'd love to see something like a Cyber Sunday make a return. 3. With WWE pairing Flair/Asuka, Banks/Bianca, BayMella, etc, do you think they are trying to rebuild the women's tag division, or do you attribute that more to just throwing top stars in matches together? That women's roster is so deep, if only they would utilize it. Thanks Sean! As always, appreciate all you do!

Ray Callahan Jr

Since your Bengals are the lone team out (sorry about that!) How do you think the three AFC North teams will fair this weekend?#GoRavens

Sal

1. In your opinion, what is the end game of the Impact/Callis/Omega storyline? 2. Ethan Page v. Karate Man at hard to kill next week. Is this a sign that Ethan has re-upped with Impact?

I am the Table

With Brodie Jr signed to a long term AEW deal, is it safe to say he'll get trained at Dustin's school when he's old enough?

anakinjmt

Hope 2021 is going great SRS!! 1st question Goldberg?????? Really???

Matt Payne

Was there anyone in WWE pushing for more of a Brodie tribute on RAW or was the feeling to let AEW do the big tribute?

anakinjmt

Catching up on Fightful shows, and you guys popped when Orton came out wearing pants at TLC. What's the story behind Orton not wearing pants?
