UNDERTAKER, MIKE HATING ECW, WHY IS SAMI STILL IN WWE DEVELOPMENTAL AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2014-12-20 10:00:56
I saw the photo of Undertaker making the rounds. Is this really Taker? If it is, does he really look this rough or is this a bad angle, bad pic, etc?

It's a real photo. I think people forget he's older now and has a lot of mileage on his body, plus he dyes his hair and beard when he appears. It's absolutely a real photo.

Perhaps you know what ever happened to Jason Sensation, the wrestler impersonator from the Attitude Era?

Sensation is living in Canada and every so often, does a radio appearance talking about his time in the business, but beyond that, I don't know.

I wanted to ask your thoughts on why WWE has waited (and continues to wait) so long on pulling the trigger on Sami Zayne. Nobody since The Shield has really caught on from NXT, and Zayne seems more popular than Adrian Neville who seems poised for the next big push. Any thoughts?

I think it's a case of Triple H wanting to keep the guys in developmental as long as possible so they aren't rushed up and wiped out with terrible gimmicks.

Do you see Kenta being a future Paul Heyman guy when going to the main roster? Like Lesnar, Heyman can be the talker/advocate while Kenta brings the action. Could be a good team.

That's an interesting idea. I just hope KENTA finds his way in WWE, because so far, he hasn't impressed at all in my opinion. Putting him with Heyman is a great way to give him some instant credibility.

I saw you wrote you don't want to see anyone revive ECW. What are you, some WWE mark? You are probably the type of fan who hated ECW and wished it would die. I hope you get hit by a truck. What do you have to say to that?

I think you take the cake for the most amazing question I've ever received here. As a show of my appreciation, I'd really like to send a complete set of the ECW DVD releases I SCRIPTED as well every ECW action figure and video game I worked on, PLUS a complete printout of every article I ever wrote for ECWWrestling.com AND a link to a Youtube video of every time I was mentioned on ECW PPVs for research I did for Joey Styles, but instead, I'll just say, "Thanks for the laugh!"
