I saw Natalya posted footage of training with a bunch of WWE talents and Ricky Starks. Why would AEW let Starks train with people outside of AEW?
You understand that lot of talents in professional wrestling have friends outside of the company they are contracted for, correct?
You understand Starks was with Cody Rhodes backstage at Wrestlemania when Cody returned to WWE, correct?
People have lives outside of their contractual obligations.
Where is Sheamus?
Recovering from a shoulder issue. I've heard rumblings of him being back this month, but nothing concrete.
One of the biggest problems I have watching wrestling today is there are so many talents who seem young and don't appear as if they could fight me and beat me up in real life. Growing up, I believed in the roughness of the Road Warriors and Sid Vicious. I don't feel that today. Any theories?
Well, I think there's a lot to be said about the rise of MMA in taking legit fighters and tough guys who may have come to pro wrestling migrating there instead, but I think a part of it is that you've grown up and the younger talents seem like kids to you vs. adults you looked up to. The perception is obviously going to be different.
Do you think Ken Shamrock and Lex Luger have a stronger chance of going into the WWE Hall of Fame now?
Yes.
What are the odds of a physical WWE Hall of Fame attraction now that Endeavor owns the company?
I actually think they are lessened, because Endeavor would care more about the bottom line. If such a project can't make the company money, it's not going to happen. I think under Vince McMahon eventually they would have gone for it and he would have operated it on a loss just to prove it could exist, at least for awhile.
Any chance they revisit the old WWE NY restaurant concept?
Not unless someone wants to license it and run with it. That was the original plan but when the licensee ran out of money, WWE took it over and ran the place because they were about to go public and didn't want to have a public failure that could hamper the IPO's chances.
