10 WWE Questions You Most Want Answered (Feb 9)
What's next for AJ Styles?
The most telling thing about this week's featured question is - for me - the tone. 'Will Roman Reigns really beat Undertaker at WrestleMania?'. It's a disbelieving plea; surely this man, this 'Big Dog' we've been forced to endure, surely he cannot be allowed to defeat a legend at the event he transcends. It's a natural reaction many of us will share in the lead up to 'Mania, and I'm going to try my very best to rationalise everything that's going on. Don't panic, or try not to, at least.
Elsewhere, we tackle a variety of subjects including the future of AJ Styles, the likely positioning of Dean Ambrose and Samoa Joe on that looming WrestleMania card, and the spiky subject of 'part-timers' winning major championships.
This week also has a slight NXT slant, perhaps showing that we're already looking beyond WrestleMania to April and May - the now-traditional season for NXT call-ups. But can the brand return to its recent glory?
Once again, thanks to all who submitted questions via our official Twitter page (@WhatCultureWWE). Stay tuned for another round of questions next week, but until then, let's dive in.
10. What's Your Opinion Of Part Timers Winning Championships?
With the exception of Brock Lesnar's last world title reign, which gave just enough MMA-style legitimacy to his feuds, I'm usually not a fan of an older part-time guy scooping a top tier title and disappearing for weeks at a time. World title feuds should be the gemstone of a promotion's programming, and this is damaged when somebody like The Rock (or, as has been rumoured for Fastlane, Goldberg) wins the championship.
Furthermore, I don't think Goldberg vs. Lesnar even needs to be for the Universal Championship. The pair have built an intriguing enough story over the past few months without gold being a necessary crutch. Their match has already been officially confirmed for the show; why must it dilute another feud in the process?
