What’s good, Sean? Just wondering. The sheamus/drew story has been hinting on a betrayal. Does Keith Lee’s involvement make it a misdirect and have him turn heel instead of sheamus?

Magan Yusuf

Hi Sean, do you know what caused the sudden change for them to put more story stuff on main event? Are they trying to sell the show to a cable/streaming network?

Not really a question more your thought. Do you think the Impact/AEW relationship is more of a doorway to NJPW alliance. They get Don Callis and Rocky Romero.

1. Any reason why PAC was not on Dynamite this week.? Is there something going on behind the scenes because the way the six-man played out you’d figure he would have appeared in some aspect. 2. Any update on Brodie Lee and he expected to return to AEW? I ask because hasn’t been mentioned in weeks and that Silver has been the breakout star of Dark Order and it almost seems to make Brodie out of place in the group. 3. With the roster growing and not enough screen time for everyone, any word of performers in AEW unhappy over their creative direction?

Brian Bayless

If you could poach any wrestling media personality to move to Fightful full time, who would you want to add to the roster?

Kristopher Phillips

What are the chances Omega arrives in a helicopter like Luger on the USS Intrepid?

Kristopher Phillips

3. Have any NJPW wrestlers talked about there first impressions of the new president?

Zach Ayman

2. Will there be anymore signings by WWE via Performance Centre tryouts? Last week asked about Elayna Black

Zach Ayman

1. There’s a lot of criticism about Jaxson Ryker lately but what’s different between him and someone like Drake that doesn’t seem to get into trouble?

Zach Ayman

1.) How likely do you think it is we see Becky return during the rumble? 2.) At this point what else can UE do on NXT? I feel like raw could use them desperately to freshen things up, but on the other hand I’m terrified Vince would ruin them In a few months. Opinions? 3.) Have you had a chance to check out Renee’s new podcast? Specifically the Punk episode? I found it interesting that she said wwe wouldn’t give her a podcast or a cooking show, everything she pitched got shut down. Also What are some of your favorite podcasts to listen too?

Josh Wilburn

Do you think that AEW has too big a roster for the time they have, it seems like guys like Shawn Spears, Miro, Lance Archer etc, aren't getting the spots they deserve because it is all so crowded

Scott Young

Is Swoggle signed to Impact? Is Don Callis' contract with Impact almost up? How likely is it that we'll see Shaq in a singles match for AEW?

Erik Rios

Which interview that you’ve done made you genuinely starstruck?

Bryant Heath

What’s your favorite Christmas memory?

Bryant Heath

What’s been the saddest day of your wrestling fandom?

Bryant Heath

I feel like the aspect of Scott D'Amore being the backstage authority figure has been great. It seems like it is different than how typical GM roles are looked at. What do you think?

Reid Greenspan

Is there any update on Mandy Rose? Do you think they’ll put her back with Dana Brooke as soon as she’s healed up, or could they use this break as another reset for her character/story?

Becky Dayecarter

I don't expect it any time soon, but do you think Sonya Deville will return at the top of the card or doing more of the same as what she was before?

Dev W.

Do you have something that can confirm angels secret admirer is eva marie or can it be someone else? Maybe someone from nxt? Santana Garrett maybe?

Christian Otero

This isn't really a question, but I wanted to give you a heads up (if you haven't heard already) that the audio was screwed up on your last couple of podcasts—last Friday's Smackdown review didn't have your half of the audio at all, only Jeremy's, while on Monday's Raw review you were at about half the volume of Denise. Just thought I should say something in case your set-up got out of whack somehow. I need those podcasts! :)

Sean T. Collins

What did you make of the spot in the Omega/Moxley championship match where Mox hit the Paradigm Shift on Omega but then broke out a couple of chairs and initiated a slapfight instead of going for the pin? It took me right out of the match, but I haven't heard many people commenting on it.

Sean T. Collins

What does the future look like for Eli Drake? I'm only familiar with his NWA Powerrr run, but the guy sure seems like a star to me.

Sean T. Collins

Do you think the put the Impact title on Chris Bey since he's in the Super J Cup the same night?

Do you think we'll see a major NJPW show in the US in 2021?

Jim McShea

Do you think the difficulty in travelling between Japan and the US is a hold up in any potential partnerships between AEW and NJPW?

Jim McShea

Which would you rather see, Sting chasing the BTE title or Sting becoming friends with Schiovani and Baker (like randomly popping up in a spa with them, not forming a faction or anything)?

Jim McShea

1) with the moving from the Amway to Tropicana, any idea if they plan on using the dugouts as entrance style that they used for rumbles or change it up since don't have to worry about blocking fans? 2) has AEW scrapped the idea of doing a blood and guts match? Is it realistic for there to be a potential AEW/IMPACT blood and guts crossover match? 3) any idea if they're considering a 2-night mania again this upcoming year?

Jake Schwall

I just got impact plus, and since I’ve only been into wrestling for a few years, I’ve see little to no impact/TNA. What would you recommend me to watch?

#1 Do you feel that there is an unsubstantiated amount of distrust from wrestling fans towards those working in wrestling media? (e.g. calls of favoritism, making up stories, etc.) #2 What sort of questions/behaviors from interviewers (wrestling or otherwise) do you feel are telling signs that they haven't done their research on the person they're interviewing? #3 Is there a moment/gimmick in wrestling history that you weren't a big fan of that the general consensus seemed to enjoy, or vice versa?

How likely is it that we’ll see Goldberg win the rumble?

Antony Fitzpatrick

Just wondering if you've heard what s going on with Brody Lee. Usually they write people off tv with injury angles if they're hurt but there's been no mention. of him at all.

e d

Just curious what's going on with lars Sullivan. Looked like they were pushing him hard with his interview segments and now he's just disappeared off tv.

e d

1. What's the word on Mercedez Martinez? I may have missed it, but ever since she disappeared from Retribution she's just been gone. Figured since they never outright said anything she'd be back on NXT. 2. Have you heard anything about the HOF inductions for 2021? Do we still see a class of 2021 at Mania? 3. I know you said you try not to be at big wrestling events because you can be more effective for your work, but do you attend Kentucky Basketball games since it's not for work? (obviously outside of COVID-times) If so, what was the biggest moment you got to see live? Have you ever attended a Final 4/Championship game? Thanks Sean! Fightful truly is the best value in Wrestling Media

Ray Callahan Jr

Piggybacking off of my last question, Mickie James said that she originally intended for that “psycho” storyline to be with Lita instead of Trish Stratus. Do you know of any other popular storylines/gimmicks that were pitched that went to different superstars?

Dev W.

On talking smack liv and ruby challenged Billie for a tag match, do you have any idea who could be her partner!?

Manny Carvalho Santos

With Eva Marie pretty much confirmed to return, do you think her and angel would fit together because of his promos backstage and her recent post?!?

Manny Carvalho Santos

Do you think WWE will try to run the angle that was pitched with Mickie/Chelsea Green with a different woman or that it’ll just be scrapped altogether?

Dev W.

1. Do you think we'll see more AEW/Impact talent exchanges on their respective shows? Or will this be treated like some sort of invasion angle with team AEW eventually storming in on Impact or something? 2. What are they doing with Retribution???? 3. Do you think NXT will get a second show? I just remembered reading that Triple H was budgeting for it.

Sheila Antonio

Jaxon ryker and Elias? Good tag team? Do you think they look alike?

Charlie Williams Jr.

Really enjoying NJPW Strong. Easy to consume, good quality wrestling with fun stories. Is this something NJPW wish to continue and build on? Any info on their taping for this show? Do you think the NJPW US title should be defended on Strong?

Hunner Gaskins

You can only watch one pay per view from WWF/WWE, Impact/TNA, NWA/WCW and ECW for the rest of your life, which ones are you choosing?

Matt Payne

Do you have any autograph memorabilia? Could be wrestling, sports or pop culture related at all?

Matt Payne

3. I assume theres been alot of questions about Trey Miguel but my question is more towards Triple H basically saying he had no passion, has Triple H's good faith stock dropped off for some? That line specifically didn't seem like a good look

KingoftheNorth

2. Is it just me or is the entire interest level of NXT just dropped? At this moment they only have Balor announced with no matches, AEW have like 10 things laid out for the show

KingoftheNorth

1. Making my return to the fightful questions show, first question is how do you feel about belt collector Kenny Omega? I genuinely think him winning the Impact and NWA titles, then challenging Ibushi (after winning double titles at WK) for Dominion would rule

KingoftheNorth

What NXT stars to see popping up at the Rumble or shortly after?

Matt Payne

1) Out of the current roster, who do you think would benefit the most from winning the rumble. 2) With CM Punk mentioning that AEW would be more interesting for him as he hasn’t faced the majority of the roster, who would you want to see him face if he went to the company. 3) Any update on Jinder Mahal?

Do you think that Omega “undertale” entrance make more sense now ? I feel this thing ends with Omega collecting all the belts then he has to go after Ibushi for the IWGP title.

Manuel Rosales

1. What’s up SRS, I want to know what’s been going on with Cesaro? Do you think he should leave WWE and go to a different promotion? 2. In your honest opinion, who do you think is the MVP of pro wrestling for 2020?

Joshua Cyprian

How involved are the two promotions with the Omega angle? Is this mostly Kenny & Callis, or are the promotions really collaborating?

Chris

Hello Sean, 1) What did you think of Impact & what is your takeaway on Omega being on Impact? 2) Watched the Fightful Championship thumb war, how did you lose? You hade a training montage LOL. Have a great day & FTF

JJ Gyllenhaal

Do you think the lack of PC training/ring time/house show loop is part of the reason for so many injuries & botches in NXT over the past few months?

JT316

Do you think Reckoning is being kicked out of Retribution and turning into Mia Yim

Shawn Garner

1. With the AEW/Impact news this past week and the cross promotion on this weeks shows, do you think this will continue between AEW and Impact and if so, for how long? 2. What do you think are the 3 best AEW/Impact cross promotional matches that could happen? 3. Do you think MJF will eventually take the Inner Circle from Jericho ot is there another way you could see their storyline concluding?

Dobby_TheBrain

What's the deal with Becky?

Any update on Tessa?

What's a trope, trend or style used in wrestling reporting that you like and one you don't like?

Joel Pearl

Joining*

Charlie Williams Jr.

Do you see Jericho joint Kenny/don callis?

Charlie Williams Jr.

If a inside source gives false information, what's the process on fightful to point this out to patreons?

When Tessa signs with a wrestling company which one do you think she signs with WWE and AEW

Shawn Garner

Are Lana and Asuka winning the Tag Titles

Shawn Garner

1. Any insight into the ROH tapings this weekend other than what's been reported? 2. Ethan Page contract status: is he AEW bound or more than likely staying with Impact!
