Has the Rock been gone that long that he has to write notes on his wrist for his promo? On top of that why would the camera angles be such that they are seen on TV?

Think about your second question first....they wouldn't have!  It was all done as part of the angle to make John Cena look stronger. It worked too!

I am sure I am overanalyzing this too much, but was Cena’s promo (2/27/12) with the Rock or Dwayne Johnson? The Rock always talks in the third person and throws out all of his catchphrases, and he wasn’t talking like this on Monday. It sounded more like Dwayne Johnson to me. Are they taking the feud to a more personal level, or I am just thinking too much?

You definitely noticed what WWE wanted you to notice.  The whole scenario was done in such a way to get Cena over.  Again, it worked.  I am very curious to see how they follow it up tonight.

With WWE doing a new show on cruiser weights, what's the best way for a fan to get them to look at the guys that wrestle for my local indy, Vanguard Championship Wrestling. Is there a way I could send Youtube links of matches that Chatch and Krotch have had?

You could try that but it generally has no effect.  Basically, the guys themselves should submit DVDs of their work and if they know anyone that can put in a good word with talent relations, they should have that person do so on their behalf.

I was wondering if you could give some insight on how the WWE selects people for it Hall of Fame. There are wrestlers who obviously deserve to be there but are not, Randy Savage and Bob Backlund and some who's induction could be called questionable ( Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Koko B Ware). Is it as simple as Vince let's in who he wants or is there more to it than that?

Yeah, it pretty much is that simple.  In some cases, like with Savage or Bruno Sammartino, they can't induct people because the person won't attend the ceremony or won't agree to it. But as for whether the person is worthy of induction or not, that is purely a Vince call.

When (if ever) do you think that Kane will remember that it was Mark Henry who put him out?

Given he walked right past him when he returned and hasn't mentioned him since, my guess is that train has left the station.  Good old WWE creative.
