-By Kayfabe and Rajah

Alright, I have re-opened the Mailbag section with the help of two individuals, Kayfabe and Grandpa. Hopefully, it will work out better this time, as the above individuals will handle the great BULK of the emails.

Here are the steps to take if you like your question answered in the Mailbag section:

1. Please check to see that your question(s) have not been answered on any other sections of the page. Take great note of the FAQ Part I and FAQ Part II as well as the mailbag archives at the bottom of the page. .
2. Send a legibly written question or comment to mailbag@rajah.com. Please limit yourself to only one question per person per email. This allows us to update the mailbag more frequently.
3. ALL email sent there may potentially be included in the Mailbag. If you do not want your response posted, do NOT send it there!
4. If a name is included, I will post it along with the email. If you do not want your name published, do NOT write it!
5. Remember, it is impossible that every email I receive get posted on this page. Only the best and most popular questions/comments will likely make it on.
6. Also remember, that questions will be answered by either Kayfabe or Rajah, so any personal remarks should be addressed accordingly. The following color scheme will be used:

Rajah - GREEN
Kayfabe - YELLOW

Here is one of those "who's the best?" questions that are more opinion then fact, but are often a lot more fun to debate over. Who do you think has/had the best tag team finisher in the WWF? Nowadays, it seems the Dudleys are the only ones who use theirs, and the 3D may be one of the best simply based on the amount it is used and how quickly it can be used (kind of like the Stone Cold Stunner's popularity. He used it every chance he got.) In the history of the WWF, however, I think that Power and Glory's was greatly underrated, as it comprised of Hercules super-plexing a man to the mat right as Paul Roma landed a top-rope splash. Very difficult to pull off, but beautiful when witnessed. LOD's Devestation Device and the Hart Foundation's Heart Attack were great as well, but I would say the 3D is probably the best simply based on how often it is used, followed by Power and Glory's. Don't you just miss tag team finishers? Very few teams employ them anymore. . . tragic, isn't it? *sniff*


The Dudleys have only been in the WWF a short time, but the 3D has to be towards the top of the list. Power & Glory's finisher, which other teams have also used, was a good one, but since they never really amounted to much as a team, it doesn't really stand out much. The Hart Attack was good. the Demolition Decapataion was cool; the Doomsday Device was excellent. I kind of like the Rougeaus old move, The Rockers' was good, as was the Brainbusters. The Headshrinkers and Quebecers had interesting tag fniishers as did many teams. It's hard to just pick one, but I'd have to put the 3D very close to the top for the fact that since it can be hit out of nowhere it makes it that much more devastating, whereas moves like the Doomsday Device take a bit longer to set up.

Hey guys. Last mailbag Rajah spoke about the WM 10 match between Luger and Yoko. You said that Luger was supposed to win the title. What I wanna know is.....Was Luger also going to beat Bret Hart in the main event? Cause if you remember, the Luger Yoko match was the first of the two at Wrestlemania.


As usual, Rajah avoided the question at hand. The answer to your question is no, Luger was not also going to beat Bret Hart in the Main Event at Wrestlemania X. Bret was going to walk out as Champion no matter what, so the first match didn't matter a whole lot. Still, it would have put Lex Luger into the record books as a former WWF Champion, something which he ended up never accomplishing.

Give me a top 10 wrestlers in the WWF in order that you think dominates the most and is a fan favorite or fan hated. Here is my list. 1. Rock, 2. Austin, 3. Undertaker, 4. HHH, 5. Kane, 6. Y2J, 7. Big Show, 8. X-PAC, 9. Jeff Hardy, 10. Rikishi


OK, I have no clue what you're asking me here (though I do post the Rankings every week), so why don't I just give you some of my favorite current WWF wrestlers in no particular order. My favorites: Edge & Christian, Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero, The Undertaker, British Bulldog, Too Cool, Triple H, Hardy Boyz. I enjoy just about everyone on the WWF roster, but those are just my very favorites.


From: Havoc
I'm looking for Brother Love's music. I haven't had any luck finding it on my own, and since you have the greatest WWF site that I've ever seen I thought I'd ask you for advice on where I should go. Well I've got to be going see ya later.


I'm not guaranteeing they'll have it, but if you're looking for any WWF music, just go to Napster, and search away to your hearts content.


From: Mike
in the 25th edition of the mailbag you said only 7 of the wrestlers on the wwf roster hadnt captured gold wo r they.i thought of stevie richards, saturn, rikishi,albert and bull buchanan. who r the


Even before Rikishi's recent IC Title win, he had previously been a co-holder of the Tag Team Titles, so he was not one of the wrestlers I was referring to. Also, Saturn, albeit breifly, has held the Hardcore Title, so he wasn't on the list either. The guys I was talking about were Albert, Bull Buchanan, Gangrel, Steve Blackman and Stevie Richards. I may be missing one or two, but I think I wrote that before Too Cool won the Tag Team Titles in which case Grandmaster Sexay would've made the list as well.


From: BS
Just wanted to say I love your sight. My question is, Why do you think the WWF is pushing their top stars such as The Rock and The Undertaker in the same bad ass, tough guy attitude that is associated with the Rattlesnke, Stone Cold Steve Austin? It seems to me. The feud between McMahon and the Rock, or McMahon and the Undertaker is no different then the Austin vs. McMahon feud. Can't the WWF think of any new storylines that don't include a feud between the owner and a WWF wrestler? I wish they would.


Each storyline has it's own little twist, and when you get right down to it, The Rock's beef isn't with Vince as much as it is with Triple H. But Vince's involvement is what makes everything work. Why should he try to fix something that's not broken? Vince the character has a reputation for making life a living hell for babyfaces that he doesn't want representing as Champion, so why change everything now? It's worked before and it's working now, as the WWF is enjoying the most success it ever has right now. Would you screw around with something that's so successful? That's what I thought.


From: Rich
Hey ! First I would like to say that you guys have the number one wrestling site on the net..i look forward to reading it everyday at work...NOW..on to the reason i am writing...is there anything we can do...to get that waste of a wrestler X - PAC out of the WWF...lets send him to ECW....he is worthless in my opinion....and he looks like a total moron.....no one likes him.....lets ban together...and stick this piece of @#$%...THX


I am astounded by how many people have a hatred for X-Pac. What's he ever done to you?! I'm not his biggest fan, but I do admire him, and when he's in the ring you know you're always going to get a good effort, and usually a pretty decent match. He's wrestled some good matches in his career against all different types of wrestlers; Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Chris Jericho, Razor Ramon, Jeff Jarrett, Hakushi, Dean Malenko, Chris Benoit, Bob Holly, D'Lo Brown, etc. He's very skilled in the ring and before he suffered his neck injuries he was one of the best and innovative high flyers around. He can carrry a strong match and it bothers me that no one realizes this. Over the past few months, I've defended him in as many different ways as I can think off. You guys are making me seem like the biggest X-Pac fan on the planet, but I'm not; I'm merely stating facts.


From: Peter
Whatever happened to the Repo Man? I do not know who he is and where he is now? By the way, what was his gimmick supposed to be? Can you enlighten me on this. Thanks!


After his stint as Repo Man, Barry Darsow went to WCW and suffered through a variety of different gimmicks, most notably Blacktop Bully. I'm not sure where he is now, though as recently as a year or two ago I believe he was still under contract to WCW. If he's no longer with them, I'm guessing he's working the independent circuit.


From: Rock Y2R
I just wanted your opinion on who had or has more charisma, wrestling ablilty, leader, and mic skills between HBK, Triple H, and The Rock at there peak. My opinion is that Shawn Micheals outclassed them in everyway. I also like your site very much I recommend it to anyone!!


Hard to say. Charisma and overall wrestling ability would have to go to Shawn Michaels. I don't know about mic skills. HBK had original and entertaining promos, but Triple H and The Rock have a better delivery and you have to take into account that in Michaels' day, he wasn't on the stick quite as much. Back then he was interviewed on occasion, but Triple H and The Rock now have to come to the ring and cut ten to fifteen minute promos by themselves without someone asking them the questions. They do it more frequently too; two (sometimes three) nights in a row, and have to take up ten minutes, drive their point home, and do it by themselves. I think they're both better than HBK in this category. I'd go with The Rock for mic skills. As far as leadership qualities, that's completely debatable and I'm not really in a position to judge something like that. Again, I'd go with The Rock or Triple H as all the wrestlers backstage look to them and respect them, and they're often willing to wrestle people lower on the card. HBK had the repuatation of being a bit arrogant, and for a time, he and his Clique basically controlled the WWF by themselves. He was often unwilling to job to anyone accept his buddies.


From: Stephen
Rajah, How can you possibly say that on Triple H's theme music it says "One two. Is this on?" It clearly says "One-self." I even downloaded it and listened to it over and over and there is now way you can get one, two out of it.


Well, Rajah's quite the boozer so he was most likely under the influence of alcohol when he listened to and wrote about the song. For my money, "One, two" would make a hell of a lot more sense, but it does sound an awful lot like "Oneself". Ah, screw it. Who cares?


From: Moosedog
Hakushi's wife fell pregnant during his tenure with the WWF, so he opted to relocate to Japan. The name of the organisation he wrestles for now escapes me, but I know that he wrestles under his given-name "Jinsei Shinzaki".

Firebreaker Chip wrestled in WCW, that's why you don't remember him!


Thank you, Captain Moosedog.

Hey just to let you guys know Sean mooney does the local news in boston mass. Ch 4 if you wanted to know

From: NickM
Hey whatssup guys? I love your site and all that. I just wanted to respond to your apb about Sean Mooney. As of spring 2000, Mooney is working at my local tv station at WBZ- news 4 in Boston, MA. I hope this is what you looking for, thanks and again, this is a great site

From: Xzhibit007
I live in NY and Sean Mooney works for the UPN news broadcasting team. How ironic that he works for the same station Smackdown is aired on out here.

From: Wolfstar420
Hey guys. The last time I saw Sean Mooney, he was a newscaster for our local CBS affiliate(WBZ-TV,Boston). He was on for , maybe 6 months, then he disappeared.It's not much to go on, but it's the most I can tell you.


I should have known this one, as I actually do remember him being on Channel 9 (WWOR/UPN) in New York at one point. It appears that he's now up in Boston. Thanks to everyone else that sent in this information as well.


From: Jimsgirl4ever
RAJAH I THINK YOUR SITE IS VERY ACCURATE AND RIGHT ON THE MONEY. I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR YOU. I HOPE YOU CAN ANSWER IT. HERE IT IS: JIM DOTSON, THE SECURITY GUY DO YOU KNOW IF HE IS MARRIED OR INVOLVED WITH SOMEONE IN OR OUT OF THE WWF. I WAS JUST WONDERING HE LOOKS SO EVIL


I'm not the guy to ask. I don't think he's involved with someone in the WWF or we would've seen it blown out of proportion on the internet. But for all know he could be single, married, divorced, whatever. Not that it's any of our business anyway.


From: Andy
There was a question in the last mailbag that asked what it said in the beginning of HHH's entrance. It is indeed "1 2...is this on." Just wanted to make a note of that.


OK, so maybe Rajah *wasn't* loaded for one time in his life.


From: ILuvDX84
Hey guys! I totally agree with you, Christian is definitely underrated. First of all, he's definitely a better wrestler than Edge and second he's way cuter. I don't know why everyone is making it seem like Edge is so hot. Has anyone noticed his teeth, they look like those chompers that Matt Dillon had in "There's Something About Mary." OK, onto my question, do you guys think that Christian will get any titles soon? How old is he and is he married??


The only Titles he'll be seeing anytime soon is the Tag Titles with his partner Edge. And I don't want to see either one of them go solo anytime yet because they're too good as a team to break up. Christian is in his early/mid 20's, and I believe he's engaged.


From: Kyle
I watch commercials for WWF ppv's. And the rating is TV14 DSLV. I know that S means sexuality, and L means language, and V means violence. What does the D stand for?


Suggestive Dialogue. I had to research that one in the TV Guide, but I did it just for you, Kyle.


From: NikR316
dude i have been a mailbag reader for so long, but now I find it annoying. Why do you put in these emails that people spend hours writing that i spend 10 minutes reading that you spend 30 minutes making a response to? I think you should make a note of that and discourage the excessive writing


Take note of this edition. I think we're starting a new trend.


From: PluegDaddy
hey, I am a huge WWF and have been for years, and I think some friends and I are going to plan a trip to go see Wrestle Mania 2001, and I was wondering if you had any information on when tickets went on sale for the event, and how I would go about obtaining them if I'm not able to be in the area? Thanx


Rumor has it they'll go on sale sometime this October or November. The date on which the on-sale date will be announced is July 1st, so be sure to listen for the date in the next few days or so. If you're not going to be in the area, I would either call Ticketmaster or attempt to order them from Ticketmaster online. I'm not sure if you'll be able to purchase them from WWF.com or not.

Dear, Sir or Madam: To whom it may concern, I think that Times New Roman is the worst font ever! Why couldn't you choose pretty font like arial or helvetica? Also red and black are so ugly, why not pink and blue?


Uh... OK, I was unaware that we were using Times New Roman, but if you say so.


From: MD
HEy to everyone at rajah.com. I have been visiting your sight for the last few months, and I think you guys do a kickass job. The reason I am writing is because I want to know what the hell happened to the undertaker. He used to be the coolest guy in the WWF, but know he looks like a chump, and it pisses me off. DO you think there is any way hell go back to being the way he was? HOw about a return of Paul Bearer to manage Kane and Taker? Thanks for your time, and keep up the good work.


No, it seems his new image will stick. Lots of people are saying that his new personality is merely an extension of his real life one, and those often make for the best kinds of characters. I love the old Undertaker gimmick as much as the next guy, but even though it's one of the greatest characters of all time, there's not much more that can be done with it, especially in today's day and age. I think we saw the last hurrah of the old Underatker last winter and spring when nearly the whole show focused on him and his mysterious Ministry of Darkness. So it appears that the days of the old Undertaker are behind us, unless he makes one last run with the old character before retiring for good.
