Smark Out Moment

Do you have a question that you want to ask the minds over at Smark Out Moment? Our version of the WWE Inbox is the Smark Out Moment Mailbag. Once a month, we set aside some time to answer any of the questions on your mind, whether they be wrestling related, trivia to try to stump us, or just general questions to get to know Tony Mango and the other members of the team better.

Here are your submissions for this month:


Question: "I’m sure I left questions on last months mailbag but I don’t see them... guess not. Wouldn’t be a big deal apart from the fact I can’t remember them. My question is this; what the hell did I do with my questions?"

Answer: Wizard did it.

Question: "Me and my friends are thinking of booking a trip to New York for next year any tips or recommendations of things we could do?"

Answer: I'll toss out some things on the podcast.


Question: "Rank the four SD sets (rings, fist, HD, today's)"

Answer: Current, rings, fist, HD is what I'd probably go with, but I don't feel too strongly about it

Question: "Best and worst GM of SmackDown"

Answer: Best was maybe Teddy Long just for simplicity's sake and the worst, I'll go with Booker T cause I honestly forgot he was even the GM, so it must not have meant much to me in the grand scheme of things.

Question: "How big is Batista's dick?"

Answer: Sinbad?

Question: "Did you like Mr. Kennedy or was he overrated?"

Answer: I was a big fan of Kennedy at first, but in retrospect, I've changed my opinion a lot. I now look at him who was overrated and not the next big thing, but I still acknowledge that he could have had more to offer. I'd love to see him return to WWE in a non-competition role as either an announcer or a general manager type.

Question: "What do you think of Hip Break Kid's new hairdo?"

Answer: I hate it so, so much.


Question: "Do you guys play Dudgeons and Dragons? My character is named Havoc named after Son of Havoc"

Answer: Never played it in my life, but I know Dace does a show about it now.

Question: "What do you think of Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee? I’m getting a Switch"

Answer: Haven't played it; I've actually not played anything on the Switch yet, even.

Question: "Robert do just want your name on a sign for Evolution?"

Answer: n/a

Question: "How do you think Maria and Mike Kanellis will fair in 205 not live? Rumor is I will start to watch if Zack Ryder loses 20lbs think he can?"

Answer: If Ryder can do that, I think it'll be good for him to try that out for a bit. Kanellis is in a sink or swim situation. If he can't even be a decent enough star on 205 Live, he'll be doomed.

Question: "What do you think of Carmella and Summer Rae’s new hair color?"

Answer: I'm not a fan of either. They both look so much better as blondes.

Question: "What do you of Abyss being the first TNA original/homemade talent to go into their hall of fame?"

Answer: He makes perfect sense as an option. I honestly couldn't suggest anyone better for the spot, given his career.

Question: "Why do you think Charlotte keeps on teaming with Fortune guys Ric worked with in TNA? If Roode and AJ were around Ric so long why can’t they woo. Joke who does she team with next Morgan, Storm, Kaz, Daniels?"

Answer: That is kind of weird, come to think of it...

Question: "Has Dean Ambrose ever used a Fisherman Suplex/Perfect Plex? 2k thinks it’s his finisher I don’t think I’ve ever seen him use the move"

Answer: As far as I can remember, nope.

Question: "Paige is using she is using a Voodoo doll to recover her neck. How do you think that will go?"

Answer: Yeah...that's not going to work...

Question: "Any thoughts on Smackdown 1,000?"

Answer: Saving this for the podcast.

Question: "When was the last time a heel got real heel heat from you? Nothing to do with Elias, but Marty “The Mouth” Martinize who beat after Fenix attack El Dragon Azteca Jr, but the boss sad defend or be stripped. Marty won and my reaction he will fail the cash in. Pentagon Dark defended the world title against King Cuerno and Mil Muertes Marty attacked Pentagon, boss comes out and I lost it. I realized that Marty would cash in and win because The Gift of the Gods was turned into Money in the Bank. I hope Pentagon kills him at Ultima Lucha"

Answer: Brock Lesnar beating down John Cena at Extreme Rules is the last time I can remember that wasn't a manufactured smark kind of reaction from me.


Question: "Hey Tony, let's play a game of Would You Rather, Would you rather see a nude pictorial of Ric Flair OR a nude pictorial of Nia Jax? Maybe one day you can include "Would you rather" in your "Play the game" segments that you have every once in a while. Thanks."

Answer: Nia Jax, obviously. I actually have Would You Rather waiting in the wings, funny enough!

Question: "Maybe for the next tournament you can do an old school sexiest superstars tournament from The 1980's, This would include the women from WWF and The WCW-NWA period."

Answer: Too little knowledge, too little interest from people, and not enough pictures to go with for something like that. Plus, isn't it obvious Miss Elizabeth wins?


Question: "TLC is coming up in my city? I'm thinking about going, but haven't decided. Any thoughts on what the card might be. "

Answer: The finals of the Mixed Match Challenge tournament is a guarantee right now. I wouldn't be shocked at all if The Miz was against AJ Styles for the WWE Championship, Roman Reigns against Drew McIntyre or Bobby Lashley maybe, Ronda Rousey against maybe Natalya, I could see Asuka against Becky Lynch...

Question: "I'd like callum and Rob's input on RVD in relation to his superstar score you guys did a while back. Personally he's in the 60s for me. Suggestion for next superstar score: Chris Benoit , Edge"

Answer: n/a

Question: "Last question, how would you book a sasha banks championship win"

Answer: If I could go back in time and undo the 4 quick runs, I'd rather do that. If I were to book her winning now, she'd be sent over to SmackDown and win the title at some point in the second half of 2019 by beating Asuka, probably.


Question: "Who are your top 5 favorites in WWE right now? Not including NXT."

Answer: Braun Strowman, Kevin Owens, AJ Styles, The Miz and maybe TJP. Shout out to Seth Rollins, Drew Gulak and a few others who just missed the cut.


Question: "Will we ever see a U.F.C. or N.X.T. invasion on the Main Roster?"

Answer: UFC, I don't think so. NXT has to happen at some point down the line.

Question: "If you could put any 16 Wrestlers of any E.R.A. living or dead to compete in a King of the Ring Tournament, who would you pick? And who you think would win the King of the Ring Crown?"

Answer: For me to really do this justice, I'd have to sit down and really plan out a lot of it, but I know some of the people I'd love to have on the list would be Shawn Michaels, Mr. Perfect, Chris Jericho, Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Triple H, Randy Savage, Edge, maybe Booker T, some big guy like Big Show or Brock Lesnar...so on...and I'd probably go with Jericho for the win.

Question: "Which 1 on 1 Match between any 2 superstars living or dead would make the most money from wrestling fans?"

Answer: Hulk Hogan vs. Steve Austin or The Rock vs. Ric Flair in their primes maybe, something like that.

Question: "Who will Keith Lee feud with when he gets called up to the main roster?"

Answer: Waaaaay too early to try to figure that out, but I could see him being a midcarder on Raw when he comes up and having some kind of feuds with people like a Baron Corbin, Jinder Mahal, Andrade "Cien" Almas maybe...


Question: "Do you agree with the plan to have Batista main event this coming year's Hall of Fame?"

Answer: If he's going into the Hall of Fame this year, he makes sense as a headliner. I think other people should go in before him, but I can't fault WWE for wanting to put a Hollywood star in there and if they can't get The Rock, don't want to put in someone like The Undertaker or others, then Batista works well.

Question: "Do you think we're going to get a Batista vs. Triple H match?"

Answer: I think we might, but I'd rather see Batista against Braun Strowman, Samoa Joe and others, instead of just another Triple H match. If we get Batista vs. Triple H, I hope it's at the next Saudi Arabia show (if they have one) rather than at WrestleMania, at least.

Question: "What do you think of Truth TV? I love it and I think this whole dance break thing is hilarious."

Answer: I'm kind of indifferent to it, leaning more towards not being a fan. I like R-Truth best when he's crazy, not when he's just being himself.

Question: "Do you buy into the rumors that WWE is planning to do the Dream Match between AJ Styles and Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 35?"

Answer: I'm starting to, more and more, but it could be Daniel Bryan instead of AJ Styles, too.

Question: "Based off the Hot Tags, do you think Paul Heyman would be a good manager for Asuka?"

Answer: I think she'd need someone a bit less stuffy than Heyman, but I'm not too sure who would fit the bill. I can't think of anybody who would realistically do the job.

Question: "Would you rather eat a bowl of shit (like a soup bowl) once, or would you rather have explosive diarrhea for the rest of your life, everyday?"

Answer: I'd probably have to go with the diarrhea, as bad as that would be.

Question: "Would you rather be buried alive or stranded at sea?"

Answer: Stranded at sea. If I'm buried alive, I'm dead. If I'm stranded, at least there's a chance I'll survive.

Question: "Do you like Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream? I don't cause I don't like mint."

Answer: I'm not really a fan, but it's not awful.

Question: "What are your thoughts so far in the Mae Young Classic? To me, Io Shirai has lived up to the hype, Xia Li was surprisingly intertaining, Deonna Purrazzo is going to be a star, Jinny is underrated, and Lacey Lane still has a way to go. BTW, are you going to do a Mae Young Classic Post Show"

Answer: I've been enjoying it quite a bit, actually, even though there are only a few standout people to me. I'm probably going to write up an article about who those people are, so stay tuned. Nope, no post-show, as the finals will be at Evolution and we'll talk about the finals during the Evolution post-show.

Question: "Okay, I know it's been pretty much a full month, but what did you think about the Big Brother 20 Finale? I love Tyler, and even though I like Kaycee, I don't think she really deserved to win. Also, do you think Bayleigh and Swaggy hogged the spotlight and apparently Bayleigh had a miscarriage in the jury house. Are you going to watch Celebrity BB 2?"

Answer: Really disappointed Tyler lost to Kaycee, but I'm glad he won America's Favorite Player. Bayleigh and Swaggy stealing some spotlight made for good TV and I'm sure the execs at CBS loved that. Very surprised about the miscarriage. I probably won't end up watching CBB, but it depends on who is in the cast. If it's a bunch of people I've never heard of and washed up E-list celebs and whatnot, I'll pass.

Question: "Rank your favorite food from #1-5. Mine are in order from 1st to 5th: Chocolate Chip Pancakes, Shrimp Cocktail, any type of Pasta for the most part, rice pilaf, and scallops."

Answer: I'll go with five of my favorite all-around meals. 1) tortellini alfredo with either chicken or pancetta and broccoli or spinach along with some garlic bread, 2) pepperoni pizza, 3) breaded chicken or veal in a sandwich with bacon, provolone cheese and either lettuce or spinach, 4) steak with a twice-baked potato and mushrooms and green beans, 5) salmon or a crab cake with rice and some kind of snap peas or something - - shout out to beef/lettuce/cheese tacos, hamburgers, and of course all the wonderful world of junk food that I disqualified cause it would be too hard to rank all the forms of chocolate and such

Question: "Are you someone who enjoys giving candy to the kids on Halloween?"

Answer: I have a love/hate relationship with it. I'm not a big fan of corralling the dog and having to get up out of my seat every few minutes, but it's nice to see the kids get all excited.

Question: "What is the strangest conversation you've ever heard from strangers?"

Answer: "I'm gonna go rump roast on her ass." might take the cake for a random thing I've overheard

Question: "What movie, show or video always makes you laugh no matter what?"

Answer: Most of the first 10 seasons of The Simpsons, Robin Hood: Men in Tights

Question: "What is the scariest nonhorror movie?"

Answer: A Clockwork Orange
