Ryback's got another shot at Punk's WWE title at January 7th.WWE have done enough to kill Ryback's momentum by giving him 3 PPV loses in a row.Isn't this match going to be like putting salt on his wounds?

 

[klunderbunker]

Yep, but I'd bet on a new Ryback feud starting up at the end.

Who is the next FCW "Star" to be called up and what is is going to be his role?

With WWE signing alot of independent talent, who's their next "big" independent guy who everyone knows who's going to get signed?

When does Brock Lesnar come back and what does he do?

 

[klunderbunker]

My guess would be Corey Graves. He seems to be popular down there. No idea but I doubt it'll be main event stuff.

Probably Shelton Bemjamin.

Probably goes after someone at the Rumble to set up Mania.

I was discussing a possible world title reign for Christopher Daniels and somebody shot down the idea because he wouldn't be capable of working a "world champion schedule". Leaving aside the "Daniels for world champ" bit for a second, was I right in claiming that (in TNA) the world champion's schedule really isn't that much more strenuous than what most of their performers do (and what Daniels already does)?

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah I think so. He's already a midcarder so having him on every show isn't a stretch at all. Also he's an indy guy. Working every night is his bread and butter.

Moving on: what are your thoughts of putting Daniels in the world championship scene, and/or making him world champion? Surely he's as capable as Aries or Roode as being a foil to Jeff Hardy, and probably the most notable name in TNA to have never held the world title.

Keep in mind I won't see last night's Impact until Sunday. Feel free to spoil it; I just won't know if something like this has already happened.

I'm not sure. He's great in this comedy role and I'm not sure how he'd work in a serious role like that. I'm not the biggest Daniels fan in the world to begin with though.

None of them. It's been pretty weak lately.

Curious for your thoughts on this KB:

If around the time that ECW got its national television deal with TNN, they also found a commited and deep-pocketed financial backer that could have made up for Paul E.'s money shortcomings, upped the production values, and allowed them to keep talent like Taz, The Dudley's, Lance Strom, Mike Awesome, etc., and gave them the chance to be in play for free agents themselves...

How successful could the promotion have been? How long would the company have lasted? Could they still be around today? And how might that have changed the wrestling landscape??

 

[klunderbunker]

Not much longer. With the Attitude Era being as awesome as it was, the stuff ECW was doing wasn't nearly as impressive or special anymore.

What do you think of the Shield's entrance theme song?

 

[klunderbunker]

It's fine.

Do you think Daniel Bryan would be a good choice to win the Royal Rumble? I don't think it'd be random for Daniel Bryan to win it, any more so than any individual not directly involved with the main event scene right now. I know I've said "ideally," in another thread but it was more meant to be a matter of fantasy booking. I suppose they could very well keep him and Kane involved in the tag team division for a big tag match at WrestleMania. If The Shield expands, there could be a large, multiman elimination match akin to the Nexus vs. Team WWE at SummerSlam, though that'd sideline the tag titles themselves.

As far as the Royal Rumble, I don't realistically see guys like Barrett winning the title. I get the Royal Rumble is a good platform with which to push a new guy, though that's not what always happens nor is it what should always happen. Of the last ten years, only four of the ten Royal Rumble winners weren't established main eventers, so I don't think it's reasonable for people to always have the expectation of the WWE using it to push someone to the next level. If there's an already established guy who would draw better, why push someone new at this time of the year? I get you've got to take chances, but certain wrestlers look like better prospects than others do. If there's no prospective main eventer who could draw like Batista did, for instance, why do it? When Rey Mysterio won, he also had a ton of hype following Eddie's death. Guys like Wade Barrett don't have as sure-fired of an angle with which to draw and get a strong reaction. I'm not saying he shouldn't be pushed, as I'd love him and a ton of other guys to reach that next level throughout 2013; but not at a time like this. Even if the IWC isn't in love with Sheamus, he's an over face and a match with Orton would draw.

 

[klunderbunker]

He's fine where he is now and there are more deserving people.

Best wwf year in the 90's?

 

[klunderbunker]

From a quality standpoint, 97 I guess but nothing really jumps off the page. 90 wasn't terrible either. Actually go with 90.

Could you watch this Big Show interview from about a week ago and give me your thoughts on it?

Who would you rather have off your TV forever; Joey Ryan or Mr. Anderson

 

[Awesome_Miz]

In your opinion what year has been the worst for wrestling as a whole? And why?

I'm not watching a 20 minute interview.

Anderson. He's useless.

2007. Benoit blew a hole in wrestling that is never going to be filled back up. A lot of the ratings issues and downhill slide of wrestling is still because of that incident.

 

[Hard Hit Prince]

It seems that heels are not effective anymore, at least I can't really hate anybody, I mean how bad can I hate Dolph Ziggler for being cocky? He's just a guy that likes himself and that's very common on our society. CM Punk wants respect by disrespecting and how can I hate him for that? It's not like he's really hurting my feelings.

But if we don't have effective heels, it seems that we won't have effective faces too, so tell me, could WWE use tactics that hurt susceptibilities to create a villain really hated by society? I'm saying things like racism for instance. WWE gives us a form of entertainment like a movie, and there are tons of movies who uses that tactics. I know that it's a preposterous idea and almost impossible to accomplish given the fact that neither USA Network or WWE can use that, but in your eyes do you think that it would create a big buzz in the product?
