Dave, this morning you answered a question about how Hulk Hogan pretty much is the king of self embarrassment.  What about Ric Flair? Example: the pizzeria meltdown.

Damn, that is a good one.  But to me, making racist statements trumps being a rambling drunk.

Follow up to my last question.  What does it say about bout the era they worked, considering the top 2 stars of the 80s are complete whack jobs?

It tells me that a lot of things went down that are not safe for the workplace!

I saw Mike Johnson's story about Ivar and Sami Zayn getting stem cell therapy in Mexico and i had a question because of it:  These stories of going south of the border for stem cell therapy is starting to seem more and more common.  It seems a little sketchy to leave the US for treatment (almost steroid-like). But is this becoming a legitimate source of treatment in the athletic world? Is there any evidence that this is safe and effective? Is the US government okay with this?

I honestly don’t know about whether it’s effective or not but I would guess it’s legal or people wouldn’t be openly talking about doing it.  I guess it all depends on where they go but again, I don’t know enough to say.

With Jacob Fatu surrendering his half of the tag title to another Bloodline member, is this being driven by his leg injury?  He can still appear on TV and do what he did last night without having to wrestle much.  Or is this a case of they were going to do it anyway regardless of his injury status?  I know they don't follow the old " title defence every 30 days rule " , so I suppose they could have left it on him.  Thoughts?

It was all part of the story that they are telling.  Solo is doing things that are similar to what Roman did when he was in control.

Multiple times in the last few months, the WWE has prominently featured Owen Hart in video packages about stuff in their history, which is something they've avoided doing in the past.  As far as you know, has the new regime at WWE opened up talks with Martha, or are they just done shying away from the fact he was a big part of their history?

I have not heard that they have. Martha seems happy working with AEW.  I have no idea if she would be willing to work with WWE now that it’s no longer owned by Vince McMahon.  My hunch is that she isn’t.
