SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

SHOW SUMMARY: In this week’s The Fix Mailbag with PWTorch VIP analyst Todd Martin and host PWTorch editor Wade Keller, they answer emails from VIP members on the following topics:

  • Is it surprising Paul Levesque hasn’t booked DIY stronger considering how he utilized them in NXT years ago?
  • Are AEW babyfaces referencing AEW too often as a rallying cry?
  • How did Solo Sikoa end up with the ula fala necklace?
  • Why have wrestlers over the years provided behind the scenes information to wrestling reports like Wade?
  • Does WWE feature wrestlers in their returns after time off more effectively than AEW does, and if so, why is that the case?
  • New Japan’s World Title picture and overall booking direction heading into WrestleKingdom this year including a discussion on Umino Moxley, Kenny Omega, Gabe Kid, Tsuji, Tanahashi, House of Torture, and more.
  • Has TNA surpassed AEW overall, including in particular crowd enthusiasm?
  • Is there a pattern with AEW free agent signing flattening out after the initial pop and buzz for their debuts?
  • Would Dennis Quaid be a good actor to play Vince McMahon given his mannerisms in “The Substance”?
  • Thoughts on this year’s Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame inductees: Roman Reigns, Young Bucks, Shingo Takagi, Paul Orndorff, Johnny Rougeau, Los Hermanos Dinamita, CIMA, Johnny Saint, and Bobby Davis.
  • Will WWE stand by their commitment to holding WrestleMania at the new Titans’ stadium in Nashville, Tenn.?
  • Is Bubba Ray Dudley counting out “1, 2, 3” before telling D-Von to get the titles a bit of a cheat in terms of leading the fans?
  • Is Aaron Rogers the C.M. Punk of pro football?
  • Does Todd ever think a mid-card or secondary singles title is justified?
  • Is it likely Rock (and Brian Gewirtz) will return again without enough production knowledge to avoid the hubris and missteps from earlier this year?
  • Pros and cons of WWE acknowledging other companies, and does avoiding naming AEW, for instance, while clearly referencing it actually draw more attention to it?
  • Should the OG Bloodline be all equals as a babyface faction?
  • What are the pros and cons of John Cena beating Gunther for the World Title next year?
  • Thoughts on adding C.M. Punk into the mix with the War Games match featuring the Bloodline factions.
  • Is MIchael Cole an obvious candidate for the Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame who is being snubbed?
  • Is Tony Khan at all aware of the validity of criticism of his company?
