1. Have you heard of any plans yet for WrestleMania and do they involve Brock Lesnar? 2. Do you see NWA ever running again? 3. Do you expect to see any debuts in AEW before the end of the year?

1. Does it seem like WWE is not bothered by getting bad press? Zelina's release due to the third party edict, David Bixenspan's ongoing coverage of NXT referr Drake Wuertz and his QAnon/Proud Boys ties, allegations against Matt Riddle and Velveteen Dream, being investiagted as Covid hotspots in their county, etc. 2. Allysin Kay and now Marti Belle are no longer with NWA. Are there more planning to jump ship as well? Seems like working with AEW is the only way for NWA to still have some wrestling presence. 3. Non-wrestling question for once! Also because I'm currently eating cereal. What's your favorite cereal? I've taken a liking to Malt-O-Meal bag cereals and they're not half bad.

Almost a year ago you and Conrad Thompson had a twitter exchange about there is a market still out there for creating a business surrounding wrestling. What would be your advice for people who want to get into this venture wether its media, journalism, podcasting, or vlogging?

What do you think the Good Brothers were talking about when they said "The Phenomenal One" Uncle Allen was returning... AJ signed for 3 years, right? So can't actually be him.. is this just to create buzz again and nothing will come of it?

1- which personalities or legend that haven't been rumored for The Undertakers Farewell would you like to see show up? 2- what type of content would you like to be added to Fightful Select once it moves to the website? 3- Which of the newest PC signed wrestlers do you see making a huge impact the quickest? (Obviously Ruff won the belt last week but any high hopes for someone?)

Matt Payne

Was Tony Khan's "game-shifting surprise" (or w.e he actually said) supposed to be Pac returning, or Shaq debuting? Or was it supposed to be a combo of the 2? The Shaq announcement was very bad, it was kind of just dropped in there, rather than hammered home... the set up was ok, but not the actual announcement of Shaq

More of a statement, but I'll ask your opinion on it too... The Rascalz were criminally mis-used in Impact... not a single title for any of them in 2+ years... always the bridesmaid, never the bride... they hung around the top, but not giving any of them a title is bad...

Aside from Mox v Omega, What are you most looking forward to rest of the year from the major promotions, lame duck rasslin/fightin season if ya will? Edwards v Chimaev is #1 for me, while I'm more interested than usual in World Tag League and Survivor Series.

Bryan Ward

1. Who do you think is the most underrated AEW Wrestler? 2. If Rhea Ripley gets called up to the main roster, What brand do you think would be better for her 3. If WWE were to bring back the Cruiserweight Classic, who would you like to see in that tournament?

Joshua Cyprian

1) based on Callis' comments about Omega being in Impact, if AEW never existed, where you see the major stars end up today between Impact, WWE, NJPW, etc.? 2) With Sky looking like a singles guy now, is SCU mostly just used as a veteran jobbing team on screen who will put on great matches and do great behind the scenes work for the company? 3) how much did you know Wrestletalk before Quizzlemania?

Jake Schwall

This time last year, the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles were in a prominent storyline with the Kabuki Warriors vs. Charlotte/Becky, then again this year with Sasha and Bayley. Given that they have gutted the tag division and put the titles on the backburner, are there any plans for the belts?

Dev W.

When Randy won the WWE Championship from Drew, I thought for sure Edge/Randy would be the title match at Mania. What do you think that match will be now?

Dev W.

1. Jordynne Grace was on the phone with her knockouts tag partner for next week. She mentioned that this person was coming out of retirement. Gail Kim? 2. What's next for the Rascalz. I heard WWE. If so, do you think they keep their name/gimmick. 3. When you do these Q&A Shows, are you doing these in one big shot, or do you record in chunks. Lots of info in a short time, it's impressive, but I have to imagine you have to take breaks, right? Thanks for all you do, lost a close friend Friday from cancer. Fightful is always a good mental reprieve from life's challenges.

Ray Callahan Jr

Do you think EC3’s new character is kinda just bland? It reminds me of a Q-Anon conspiracy nerd.

Skylar Russell

How are you feeling about the current ROH Product? I feel like it’s better than it has been in a good while. It seems like every match has a story, and a purpose.

Skylar Russell

1) Will nxt wrestlers have to give up their streaming platforms before being called up? If so will that make more of them hesitant to go up to main? 2) Do you think Zelinas firing will negatively impact Aleister Black? Not that they can ruin him much more.

Shawn Murray

Hi Sean 1) watched all the World War 3 sixty men battle royal & it was so awesome, would you like to see it return? 2) When I was watching the 1998 World War 3; the Jobbers to lower midcard are so over compared to the current WWE stars/main eventers when I was last watching RAW in 2018/19, when do you feel WWE will make stars again? Have a nice day & FTF ❤️

SRS Q1 - Who benefited from the Heavy Machinery split Tucker was in the ring recently. Richochet defeated him in 30 seconds . Looked like a jobber. I fear “Main event” TV. Likewise Otis lost last week, he lost Money in bank, lost Mandy.. Is there any hope for a reinvention of either!? SRS Q2- Can you tell us what you purchased in Toy Vomit last weekend and what catches your eye going forward in the store?? SRS Q3- Are Scott Hall and Sean Waltman OK’?? I am not looking for detail, but Sean walked away from a Long term solid podcast?? With Scott Half drinking, I’m worried for Scott? Childhood hero, Do you know if Sean is OK and for Scott, any intervention tried/planned/DDP etc. Again not being insrusive. Ignore if you wish. Genuine fan by X2, sir.

Aidan O'Connell

You think any company will mention biden as president since some completely avoided mentioning trump? Is Drake Wuertz an unecessary problem for WWE? Will any anti vaxers be told they have to get a covid vaccine in order to continue with the company?

Cameron Hutton

2nd. I know you don't like going to live events. But is there something that you miss being able to do with wrestling but cant since covid.

NateF_81

I know that WWE is looking at other arena's where they could put the Thunder Dome. But with the hope of a vaccine coming soon. Do you think they will put the Thunder Dome aspect on hold and just wait till they can have fans back.

NateF_81

Life question! What is something you’ve learned about yourself during this Covid-19 era of life?

Bryant Heath

Do you think Tony Khan needs to start producing JR more? I’ve always been a fan of his but I’m getting tired of him shitting on things he doesn’t like on air. It’s one thing him expressing his dislike of the Elite Deletion match and wrestlers catching high flying opponents, but things like shitting on Kris Statlanders gimmick is pretty unforgivable to me, especially when he spends so much time in his books and on his podcast saying his job is to enhance the talent with his commentary.

Matt Hookey

In five years time which wrestling show will have the most viewers (total number and key demo) on US TV?

Matt Hookey

Is there any truth to the rumour that FTR saying that they had signed a multi year deal was a work and that they are actually finished or will soon be finished with AEW?

Matt Hookey

Any word on when Andrade and Charlotte Flair are going to be back?

ronak patel

Since Chelsea Green got hurt, does this mean that Santana Garrett may show up on smackdown?

ronak patel

Have you ever wanted to do an interview with a wrestler, but found out they have health problems or passed away?

ronak patel

Do you think WWE and NXT will continue to use canned audio in their broadcasts once crowds are able to return?

Jim McShea

Assuming talents such as The Rock and John Cena are already members of SAG, do you know if WWE has to adjust their contacts so they're up to guild standards, or is that something they don't have to worry about since pro-wresting isn't exactly within SAG focus (for now)?

Jim McShea

When there is a covid vaccine, will WWE stars be recommended to get it? and if a star like Nia Jax refuses, could they not be used on tv for a while?

David Feig

I'm sure Aleister Black isn't happy right now. Has he asked for his release, and would WWE grant it?

anakinjmt

Several years ago RVD said in court he would never pass a WWE physical to be cleared. Based on what we've seen of him in his most recent Impact run, do you think that is still the case?

anakinjmt

Do you find it hard sometimes to not go all Sour Graps on what WWE does and keep an air of positivity?

anakinjmt

How successful have the United Wrestling network ppvs been so far?

Reid Greenspan

Do any companies classify wrestlers as employees as this point?

Reid Greenspan

I have liked the announcing of Andy Shepherd on NXT UK.  I think he is very good.  Do you know what he was doing and where before NXT UK?

Reid Greenspan

Will Tessa Blanchard be signed with a wrestling company by end of the year or the start of next year and where do you think she ends up

Shawn Garner

Do you know if Melina or Ronda Rousey are coming back 2 WWE

Shawn Garner

When do you Think Nia And Shayna lose their tag titles and who do you think beats them

Shawn Garner

How do you feel about drew vs roman ? Is this a good idea in your eye and can it have any logical follow through later ?

Arbel Zafriri

What do you think Mox will do next in AEW if he loses the title to Omega?

Where do you think the rascals will go?
