Please settle a bet:  I am sure I once watched Jake Roberts fight a puppet cat on WWF when I was a kid.  I can't find anything about this on their website and my friend thinks I am insane and has bet me $50 I am making this up.

Well, I'm not sure who gets the cash, but Jake Roberts never fought a puppet cat in WWE.

HOWEVER, he did appear on the FOX children's series The DJ Kat Show, which is what I think you are misremembering as a WWE scene:

The series aired in 1987 and 1988.

With so many touring midget/little person/micro promotions, I was wondering if anyone has made a documentary on the history of that genre of pro wrestling yet?

It's an interesting idea, but to the best of my knowledge, no one has made a documentary on that subject as of this writing.  

I noticed the walk-ins at the start of WWE programming look different now.  Am I losing my mind?

I asked and the good news, you are not.  I am told the company stopped using a specific camera for those shots and now uses the same cameras they used during the matches for the walk-ins.  Good eye!

Do you think we’ll get Roman Reigns at Money in the Bank and Backlash? 

Only if the creative dictates.  I don't see them rushing Reigns onto Backlash.

What has happened to old WCW manager Paul E. Dangerously?

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.
