Why hasn’t PWInsider reported that The Rock will be at WrestleMania?

Simple, there is nothing to report yet.  All that’s out there, and has been out there, are rumors and speculation.  The only people “reporting” that Rock will wrestle at Mania are the same hacks that “reported” the sale of WWE to Saudi Arabia was a done deal.  We don’t do that here.

In your opinion, which Royal Rumble was the better, more iconic, more star stacked Rumble?  1992, won by Ric Flair or 2001, won by Steve Austin?

I will go with 2001 but that’s because I loved the WWE product in 2001 and wasn’t a big fan of it in 1992.

Has Brock lost a bit of his main event appeal while feuding with Bobby Lashley?  I don’t think Bobby right now is at the level where a feud with Brock would elevate Bobby, just drag down Brock.  Bobby from last year, with MVP, feuding with Brock would’ve been a different story.  But maybe that’s just me.

It’s definitely you in that we all have our perceptions.  I don’t agree with yours however.  WWE has done a great job of elevating Lashley over the last six months.  I want to see them fight some more.

Also, how much money did WWE lose by not doing a Hurt Business versus Bloodline feud in late 2021?

As much as they lost on a lot of things when Vince McMahon was overseeing Creative.  It was par for the course.

During Triple H’s early to mid 2000’s title run, he lost the title to a couple of wrestlers for feel-good moments before being beaten decisively by Batista to crown him as the next top star.  When Roman loses, should it be the Crown next top guy?  Put it all on Cody this year?  Or should Roman get it back and drop it to someone younger that WWE has built up for a year or 2?

I think he should lose to someone that the want to give the rocket push to.  He has held the Title for so long now that when he loses, it will really mean something so I don’t mess around or get cute.  I make a moment when he gets defeated.
