Old School RAW doesn't feel as nostalgia as it use to because they keep on bringing back the same legends over and over with the exception of Jake Roberts. Why don't they bring back legends like Bundy, Beefcake,Steel, Killer Bees, Demolition, Santana, The Model Rick Martel? Now that would be cool.

You make a great point. I think different faces would definitely spice things up.

From what I understand, all past WWE, ECW, and WCW PPVs will be on demand on the WWE Network. Man oh man, wrestling nerds like me rejoice. Question is, give me one past PPV from each promotion I absolutely must watch first.

That is impossible for me to answer because I don't know what you have seen or what you like from the business. For me, it will probably be ECW Barely Legal.

You see guys like Flair and Funk and Abby wrestling into their 60s, and then you have incidences like w Jerry Lawler's heart attack in 2012, so it asks the question if you feel there should be a mandatory retirement age from in ring competition?

There is no real way to enforce it in states that don't have athletic commissions. Plus, even if you could mandate a mandatory retirement age, it would set whoever enacted it up to a age discrimination lawsuit.

Ok I can understand the WWE Network will work well on Rokus, Xbox ones, PS4s, Tablets and such but PS3 has a horrible internet platform with plug in update problems and such it's an old browser that never works. I don't think WWE has the App trough PS3 yet. So why does WWE tell us to get the network through the ps3?

If it is available, why wouldn't they tell you? Seriously? I don't get your question. If you can get it through that, they would tell you that you can. If you think the platform sucks, you can get a Roku box for 40 bucks or so!

Everyone has an opinion on who should go into the Hall of Fame and there are some good wrestlers they bring up. What is your opinion on potentially inducting Jim Johnston? I mean, his work is synonymous with most wrestling fans and has worked for WWE for so long and has created some of the most well known and popular theme songs ever. Do you agree he is overlooked and should get inducted? If so, who do you think should induct him?

He is a slam dunk, absolute yes to me. His contributions to the company have been huge.
