Whaaat?  Are you kidding me? I know that people in different cultures have different attitudes, but Summer Rae sneaks into Dolph's locker room (which was shown on camera), and for 2 seconds saw Dolph naked. And Lana is all upset over that? So what? Are you kidding me? Is it me, or is this whole angle really stupid, and going nowhere? (but knowing WWE, they will probably go all out on this..lol)

Yep, it is pretty ridiculous in and of itself. When you remember that Lana used to be a heel and do despicable things, it is even more ridiculous.

Something tells me that Ryback will likely face the Big Show for the Intercontinental Championship at Night of Champions even though Kevin Owens said on SmackDown Fallout that he plans on challenging Ryback for IC title. Why have either Owens or Cesaro challenge for the IC title instead of the Big Show? Do you think that the Big Show has something neither Owens nor Cesaro have: huge support from Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn?

I think their idea was to give Ryback a rub by beating Show. Ryback got hurt, but even if he didn’t, the fans aren’t enamored with Show right now so Ryback doesn’t get anything out of the feud. I have no problem with him getting a definitive win over Show at the PPV and then moving on to someone that can give him matches that the fans care more about.

In a recent Q&A, you were asked when the last time Nikki defended the title was,  and the answer was, over 2 months ago, July 4th in Tokyo.  Just last year, in a storyline Brie (and to some extent Nikki) was involved in, they used the 30 day rule to strip Daniel Bryan of the WWE Title.  Granted,  Daniel Bryan was injured, so they had to get the title off of him, but am I supposed  to totally forget that rule exists, even though they used it in a major storyline so recently?

Well, yeah you are always supposed to forget when they don’t make a champion defend in thirty days or when someone doesn’t get a rematch when they lose the Title. WWE would say, “The Authority are heels and that is why they stripped Bryan” but yes, I agree with you, there is no consistency.

Someone was telling me during the GFW tapings that Summerslam ’16 will be held here in Vegas at the new 20,000 seat arena on the strip. Any backup on this if it's true?

I haven’t heard that one yet but that would be great if it happened. That building is going to be awesome when it’s done. It’s good for our city.

With Michael Cole's weekly sit-down interviews focusing on other Superstars' storylines as of late, do you think it's safe to say that Triple H has pretty much been dropped as Cole's subject?

Triple H has a lot on his plate and I like that others have gotten exposure. H will be back when it makes sense but it’s good to give other people exposure too.
