FEMALE STARS NOT HAVING AN ELIMINATION CHAMBER, LUCHA STARS IN ROH, POTATOES AND MORE

Don't you think that WWE not having an Elimination Chamber match for the women is wrong?

I don't know that it's "wrong" not to have it.  If they don't have a story or a reason that makes having the match mean something, it's a wasted effort and moment by all involved.  I don't subscribe to the theory that there "has" to be a big stipuation match because it's that time of the year.  When I was growing up, the steel cage came out when there was no other way to settle a feud, not because it was October.  I'd rather see everyone be more conservative and use gimmick matches when they are called for.

Would you attend WM week in Tampa?

If I am vaccinated, I would consider going but I wouldn't run around to all the events I usually try to cover.  I would greatly mitigate where I go and who I am with out of caution and would remain masked at all times.  If I am not vaccinated, absolutely not happening.

Ring of Honor has announced a lot of new signings but not Flamita and Bandido.  Any update?

ROH has locked them in or is close to doing so.

What was with all the potato references on AEW during the main event?

When you "potato" someone in wrestling, it is a reference to hitting someone legitimately, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose.   They were playing off that.

If WWE does the Hall of Fame this year, do you think it will be in person?

As of today as I post this, I don't think WWE has that figured out for all the obvious reasons.   I think they are still deciding on what Wrestlemania week will be this year.

Do you think Goldberg wrestles again?

He's under contract for several more years and WWE isn't going to pay him for nothing, so I fully expect we'll see him again at some point.
