10). Describe some of your markish tendencies from when you were younger, and/or some that still manifest from time to time.
- most recent mark out momets were Punk's tirade, Edge cashing in MITB the first time, Smackdown ring collapse.....

- 2 WWE Live events in 1998 and 1999
- 1 TNA House Show last month
13). Who is your least favorite wrestler, and why? (Any time period)
- Hogan. It's the smart mark answer, but his lack of in-ring ability makes me hate all the success he's gotten, whereas the likes of Malenko, Jericho, Benoit, Guerrero, Saturn, Owen, etc. had all the in-ring talent, but were never really given the ball.....

- Work-rate that tells a story (i.e. every big move means something and contributes to the overall story of the match)
19). If you had the power to start your own wrestling company, and the power to hire any five wrestlers to spearhead your roster, who would they be? (Feel free to include past wrestlers in their primes)
- Currently (A.J. Styles, Chris Jericho, CM Punk, Sheamus & Matt Morgan)
- All-time (Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle, Shawn Michaels & Owen Hart)
20). (This is stolen from another thread) Finally, if Vince McMahon and/or Dixie Carter (or any other authority in wrestling) asked you for one minute of advice, what feedback would you deliver with the highest priority?[/B]
- listen to the Internet fans..... they are much less in number than the marks, but the marks will cheer/boo whoever you tell them to..... the Internet fans will always find a way to bitch and moan no matter what is happening, but they lived through the ups and downs of the wrestling business for years and know what they like..... and don't hire Hollywood writers to write wrestling scripts, just hire Jim Cornette.....
