Punk vs. Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins?<\/li>\n<li>Doesn&#8217;t the Dynamite ratings pattern decline actually come many months after the MJF-Adam Cole story in 2023, so does that undercut Todd&#8217;s contention that MJF-Cole prompted the decline?<\/li>\n<li>Could Jim Cornette have replaced Vince Russo as WWE&#8217;s head writer had Russo left a few months earlier than he did before Cornette was sent to OVW?<\/li>\n<li>Should Roman Reigns vs. C.M. Punk vs. Seth Rollins open WrestleMania night one and close night one with Gunther vs. Jey Uso?<\/li>\n<li>Could AEW benefit from creating their own &#8220;WrestleMania season&#8221; that becomes known as peak season for them? And how could they go about it?<\/li>\n<li>Why does Kenny Omega want to challenge for the AEW International Title?<\/li>\n<li>Why don&#8217;t top AEW wrestlers interact with each other more, such as Jon Moxley, Kazuchika Okada, and Omega?<\/li>\n<li>Who are the least deserving World Champions of all-time?<\/li>\n<li>Is it a terrible decision to have John Cena win the title before the end of his retirement tour?<\/li>\n<li>Thoughts on the relaunch of ECW under the WWE banner and name some of the best and worst ECW angles.<\/li>\n<li>Was Damien Priest&#8217;s World Title cash-in and title run worth it considering it effectively displaced a run by Drew McIntyre with the title instead?<\/li>\n<li>Todd and Wade draft real life couples<\/li>\n<li>Evaluating Moose&#8217;s career<\/li>\n<li>Thoughts on the concept of Fantastica Mania over these last 14 years and its pros and cons?<\/li>\n<li>Does Nigel McGuinness deserve the Best Announcer Award this year and does Booker deserve the Worst Announcer Award this year?<\/li>\n<li>What would Todd&#8217;s reaction have been to L.A.
