Hey, great site been visiting for nearly 3 yrs and theres none better! Just a couple of questions, back in the Shawn Michaels era when his was fueding with The British Bulldog over making advances on his wife, some other women kept appearing on Raw saying HBK ruined her marriage and her life, do any of ye know who she turned out to be? Also whats the story with the guy called Nailz who was ordered to take steroids of something like that.


She was just an actress. She wasn't anyone important and she only appeared in the WWF for a short time as the whole angle was dropped really quickly after it became apparent that fans didn't like it. Nailz was a WWF superstar who testified in Vince McMahon's "Steriod trial" that he was ordered to take steroids to improve his appearence. Hulk Hogan also testified at the trial, but Nailz was the only superstar who testified that he was told to take steroids, Hogan only said that they were available to him, not that he was asked to take them. As we all know, Vinnie Mac was found to be innocent (a verdict which was probably more a matter of technicality than actual justice) and Nailz was never heard from again. Actually I think he still wrestles in some of the more backwater indepdents.

I wrote an e-mail with the greatest prediction of my life on it about the night Ric Flair would turn on Triple H and go for the title. This was before there was any inkling that it would happen in the least. I wrote you another e-mail after that reminding you of my e-mail. It didn't even make the mail bag. The prediction was almost flawless except for the title not changing hands. This is just like the time when Blossom found out about a job opening at the record store, and she told Six that she was going to apply for it. Then, Six went behind her back and took the job. Of course I'm just bullshitting. Just wondered where my e-mail went and was hoping for a comment on the greatest prediction of all time!


The answer to your question is very simple - THE MAILBAG IS NOT HERE TO PUBLISH PREDICTIONS. You have a question about wrestling, you send it in and we try and answer it. This isn't an e-fed, this isn't a place for storyline ideas and this is certainly not the place for predictions or comments. We have a forum for that kind of stuff where you can post predictions to your little heart's content.

Great site. Do you know where I can buy some old wwf wrestling videos, because on the internet they are really expensive. Thanks.


I haven't bought any in a while, but I used to get mine from Ebay. I paid anywhere between $1.99 and $40.99 (I know, I should have paid that much for Bad Blood but I really wanted to own that PPV because it's one of Shawn Michaels' best matches and I was sick and tired of trying to track the damn thing down. I think anyone who has spent some time on ebay knows what I mean. Sometimes you're just like "I'm having this and no one is standing in my way". So you pay too much, but you get what you want. Life's like that sometimes) and I don't consider that "too expensive". There are also people who run websites where they sell wrestling tapes. If all else fails go to yahoo or google and enter "WWF tapes" or "wrestling tapes" and you'll get at least 20,000 matches. A word to the wise: depending on where you're located on the planet, keep in mind shipping costs. In the past I've paid more to get the item shipped than I have for the actual item. Just something to keep in mind if you're in, oh I don't know, Australia maybe?

I got a nice personal experience thing for you. A while ago I went to Summerslam (main event Brock vs. Rock), and arrived with a funny sign of Brock Lesner in glasses and a tight tuxedo (I'm sure you've all seen it.) Anyway, even though us casual internet marks have probably all seen it, not a lot of actual fans (or wrestlers) saw it. The good: Batista - Came up to me and talked to me for two minutes about how the picture was taken (how Brock was late that day and therefore had to fit into the smallest suit there) but was nonetheless amazed at how I got it. Gave me and autograph too. Justin Credible - I showed him the sign, he literally fell down on the floor laughing, and agreed to take a picture with me. Shelton Benjamin - A bus dropped him and Mark Henry off, he ran over from the bus to see my sign, slapped me a high-five for finding it (him and Brock used to room together) and then gave me an autograph. Charles Robinson - Told me that he was "going inside to get Brock." Never did. Ah, whatever. Tommy Dreamer - Driving by in a golf cart, pointed at my sign and said "that's funny". Matt Hardy, Rico, and Hurricane were all cool after the show, and i got to speak to all three of them for a while. The bad: D-Von Dudley and Bradshaw - They drove up to the street before the show started. I thought that I'd run up and get myself an autograph, right? So I run up behind their car, and they start backing up all of a sudden, so I dive out of the way before the car hits me. I get back up and go to the window, and they speed out of sight laughing at me. Assholes... Raven - Walked to his car without signing autographs. Then again, he didn't see my sign.


I haven't seen the "funny sign", so I have no idea what you're talking about. However I'm glad you had a mostly good response to it. I think most wrestlers are pretty reasonable people when it comes to fans, after all if we don't like them, they don't keep their job.

What in the blue hell happened to the writer contest?? You guys have articles posted that were written months ago... It's time for fresh blood, it's....... "G" time... You know, "G", that guy who wrote that Pullet Surprize winning article on" implants, every mans visual stimulant"... okay oaky, I'm "G" and I never got a pullet Surprize for it (got a b- minus in english for it :) but I am wondering about your contest... Need some fresh columns fellas!!!!!!!!!!


I'm not a "fella". I liked the "pullet surprise" comment though. In case you missed it, he was actually referring to a "Pulitzer Prize". Imagine that... My name is Aree, and I'm a Pullet Surprise winner. Sounds like some sort of hillbilly lottery. Anyway, we have new columns and given the considerable effort that Rajah and I (who are we kidding here - it was mostly me) went to, I hope you're enjoying them.

I have 2 questions, 1st a serious one,What do you think of the Lex Luger and death of Miss Elizabeth story? and a non serious question, Why doesn't Rajah change rajah.com to RajahWWE.com. Just wondering. :-) In the most recent edition of the mailbag, Aree received an email about why wrestlers carry fanny packs. In one of his commentaries, Lance Storm said that many wrestlers carry all their stuff in fanny packs in order to make airport security checkpoints a little less of a pain. He said it was much easier to take off a fanny pack at each checkpoint than to have to empty out all off his pockets. So, it's mostly an issue of convenience over fashion.


I figured that was the reason. I do quite a bit of travelling myself, and I can't deny that a fanny pack would make life easier. However, some of us prefer to sacrifice comfort for style and simply refuse to sink to that level of sunburnt Florida tourist. Maybe it's a chick thing. I don't know. As for changing the name of the site, rajah.com doesn't infringe on the WWE's copyright. And after the problems Rajah had with the WWE over using "Rajahwwf" I don't think he's anxious to sign up for another intimidation campaign. I thought the death of Elizabeth was very sad but I was unsurprised about the amount of drugs found in Luger's possession. He's been highly suspect for chemical dependency since his WWF days. A sad end to a sad story.

I just visited the Honky Tonk Man's website. He seems quite bitter toward most of the people involved with the WWE, especially those at the top. Is there a particular reason for this?


Who knows, but my guess is that maybe he's just bitter that they didn't offer him a long term contract and instead just get him in for special appearances. Or maybe he's just bitter at the industry in general, namely how today's superstars are making hundreds of thousands of dollars while back when he was a top superstar, wrestling wasn't big and he couldn't really capitalize on it financially speaking. I'm sure a lot of past WWE superstars are pissed at this. However, it could be something completely different - I remember a while ago, he was taking shots at Jerry Lawler (his real life cousin for those who don't know) publicly on his website but Lawler later revealed that Honky told him that he was "working the fans" in hopes of starting up a feud with him to play out either on the indy scene or in WWE. Those might not be the exact details, but that's the gist of it. Anyway, bottom line about his bitterness - only he knows.

I haven't been watching wrestling lately, but I tuned it on this past week and I've seen in the audience that people have been wearing STING's make up! The question is, is STING going to be signed by the WWE? Because if he is signed with the WWE, I think it would be a breathe of fresh air. The reasons why I stopped watching is because the story lines in the WWE is boring. Same champs and no new faces (being a champions). I think there should be an angle in the Smack down show where Lesnar will face Sting for the championship. and as for Raw, there should be a Match with Triple H vs. Goldberg or Kane.


Sting will probably not be signing with WWE any time soon. Depending on who you want to believe, there either were brief discussions about him coming in or none at all, but it appears as if he has no real interest in wrestling a full schedule and WWE will not budge unless he does.

when is lita coming back?


Apparently not until September or so. Her recovery from neck surgery is going much slower than anyone anticipated.


From: Peter Bueno
Hey guys, I just was wondering what's up with Batista? He is not even motioned on the show or your reports anymore. Is he gone from the wwe? If not what are their plans for him?


He's still recovering from a tricep or bicep injury (can't remember which) and re-aggravated it a few months back, but he's still very much "in WWE" and should be back shortly. However, it is unclear whether he will still be a part of the Evolution stable.

I wanted to know How old is Victoria, Trish Stratus, Midajah, Madusa, Jacqueline, Missy Hyatt, Major Gunns, And What is the Ultimate Warrior up to.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I don't know their ages, but you might want to check out the women of wrestling section here at the site. You can find it by clicking here. My brother runs it and he's pretty much obsessed with all the girls so he would probably know.
