CODY’S GUTS, MJF’S FUTURE, BRET HART’S TAKE AND MORE

Was Cody made to perform, or was it his own choice? I'm skeptical as if he decided not to, he could lose a lot of money. If I'm wrong, let me know.

It was totally his call.  They don’t give PPV bonuses anymore.  Cody wanted to work the show.

Given MJF'S behavior, will WWE hire him? If you hate their decisions and act as such, why would WWE hire you?

To be determined.  First off I think they would want to find out how much of what has been reported and happened was actually real.  I don’t think they would go out of their way to bring in someone who acts out when he isn’t happy (and let’s be honest, a lot of people who go to WWE will end up unhappy).  I am sure they have people monitoring the situation but here’s the thing, if he really is unhappy and has 18 months left on his deal, he has no leverage to do anything.  So, we shall.

Every time I've seen Bret Hart speak about the current product, I just think he is an angry and disgruntled veteran; a grumpy old man. Do you agree?

No, I don’t to be honest.  He was taught the business in an era where the goal was to make it look like a real fight, all while protecting your opponent so that when it was over, you hadn’t really hurt yourself.  There was an art to the work.  A true pro can throw a worked punch that looks real.  Anyone can throw a real punch.  I think he isn’t happy with how the business has evolved and it bothers him.  I don’t always agree with his take but I appreciate it and I know it comes from the right place.

Is there any article or records about Matilda, the  bulldog for The British Bulldogs? How long did she live? How long did she last? What was her life like before?

This may be the oddest question I have ever received.  I honestly have no idea.  I wouldn’t be surprised if someone chronicled her life somewhere, but I don’t know about it if they did.

Do the promotions pay for travel for independent wrestlers?

It's a case by case basis.
