What was your worst travel story/experience?

I've been very fortunate to not face the travel woes many have. I think I've only had a few that even sucked. All of Heathrow in London was grounded after All In 2023, which was almost as wild as encountering CM Punk and Jon Moxley crossing each other's path hours after Brawl In. After the first Grand Slam, I was delayed at LGA for about twelve hours, but I was also lucky to get out when I did. When driving to the first WrestleCade, we got a flat tire on the way back without a spare. While in no man's land, AAA sent a repair to West Virginia and North Carolina when we were actually in Virginia.

Overall, I'd say about less than ten percent of my trips have hiccups like that.

Favorite wrestling trope?

You could argue that everything in wrestling is a trope, but I'd say my favorite one for the sake of this question was that Billy Kidman could never get powerbombed. In WCW it was just more of a spot that happened, but I wish they played it up more. Ric Flair not landing a top rope move without being body slammed, Kevin Owens turning all superplexes into super Fisherman's Busters. I love all of those. I think it could especially work with a smaller talent and a lot of the people they face can make a point of

In your opinion has this year been the year of Liv Morgan?

She's been given the ball and delivered with every opportunity. You never hear of her causing issues backstage, she works hard, she does media, and she jumps into the character she's asked to play. She helped carry two near-hour Royal Rumble appearances. It's an example of a person that many fans asked for to get a chance, and then when given the ball, she scores.

Is there an American market you think is overdue for a big time PPV for either company that would deliver a white hot crowd?

Denver, by far. Whether it be WWE, AEW or TNA, I'd be racing to put on a special event there. I'm not sure if there is a reason they haven't had a major event in decades, but it's well past time. An untapped market that should be utilized.
