Now that I have the Network (insane bargain!), I’ve been looking through some of the classic matches and shows. I’m a younger fan who never got to see WCW, and with all the talk about Sting lately I’d love to see some of his classic matches. With the overwhelming library the Network offers, I’m not even sure where to begin. I was wondering if you could recommend some specific matches/shows to look up that would feature Sting in his prime?

I would start with the match that made him, against Ric Flair from March of 1988 Clash Of Champions. WWE.com also has some of his big moments at this link: http://www.wwe.com/videos/playlists/its-showtime-stings-career-highlights.

With PPV's now almost being exclusively on the network, or at least headed that way. Will WWE finally be able to go past the 2:50 mark for running time of the show? Even if its like 3 hr,15 min like Raw does. I'd like to see them give more time to the undercard and maybe have more backstage interviews with a Renee Young prior to their match (something we just don't see anymore).

As long as they still run them on PPV providers, they will have to stay within the three hour window. But they can also continue giving bonus content on the Network.

I'm confused? Who's Cheerios did Dolph Ziggler and The Rhodes Brothers piss in?

I wish I knew. The Rhodes boys were on fire leading up to WrestleMania and then had the tag belts taken off of them. They deserved better. Ziggler has been in this boat for a while. I just don't get it.

If HHH rates Daniel Bryan as a B+ player, how does he rank Rey Mysterio?

Triple H is not the one doing the ratings but if you are comparing the two, you can see Bryan ranks much, much higher than Rey at this point. And honestly, overall Bryan has legitimate Heavyweight moves while Rey's skill set has always been much more contrived against big guys. That isn't Rey's fault. He is a small guy that works Lucha style, but Bryan's style translates better with big men.

In your opinion who is the greatest wrestler to never hold a major world championship? For me, it's a tie between William Regal and Razor Ramon/Scott Hall.

I will go with Ted DiBiase and Roddy Piper. Regal and Hall are down the list for me.
