In you opinion, which one is a bigger event, WWE Wrestlemania, or NFL Superbowl. In the past I saw WWE posted on their website how WWE Wrestlemania can be the biggest event compared to NFL SuperBowl. What do you have to say about these two events?

It isn’t even comparable. The NFL’s SuperBowl is a tradition much larger than Wrestlemania. Wrestlemania only suits wrestling fans, unlike the Superbowl that entertains many millions of Americans. See, that’s why I almost never read articles on WWE.com. They will always exaggerate something for their own personal gain, as most companies do. I stick with the dirt sheets. But no, to answer your question it’s not even close – Mania has been growing in numbers but it’s still a very distant number.

With the main roster call up of Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch, what can WWE do to maintain the strong diva base in NXT? Its obviously that we will see Bayley and Becky lead the charge…Alexa Bliss is almost there, Carmella not so much. We will see a short Eva Marie run before being called up again. This will negatively affect the NXT Diva division health. What are the chances that we see Blue Pants signed full time but most importantly what are the odds we see WWE go out of the box and sign a Santana Garrett, Kong (if not moved to GFW) etc to reinforce the division.

It’s certainly possible they sign all those ladies (excluding Kong), especially now. Now is a special time for the Divas Division as it’s standards are on the up and up. I am excited for what the Divas can do and show, and having wrestlers like Garrett would help the somewhat struggling division. Kong was released from the WWE so I don’t think she is planning to go back anytime soon.

Tag teams such as Team 3D, APA, Hardy Boys, they were only known for their tag team actions, and not as a top main event caliber guys, why is that.

Well, most of the time it was because they were…tag teams. When your in a tag team your goal is much different from guys in the mid card and main event. It wasn’t their fault, it’s just that they were doing something else – being tag team champions, something that was very highly respected back then. Individually, every single one of these guys thrived in their positions when they were no longer together because of their status of being part of such legendary tag teams.
