Questions on Taker vs. Tensai, Ambrose vs. Foley, AJ, Brock vs. Rock, and ODB/Young, why Miz nabbed WWE Films role, and some live event press releases with Natalya and Mark Henry

For my take on the 5/2 PWInsider.com questions:
1. I don't know if I'd be ok with another 10 months of big Tensai being undefeated. It'd be a fresh face in the Mania scene, but I'm kind of split on what it would take to get there.

2. It's something different and I like that they're branching out. Of course, what they do with him when this makes it to TV is going to be what makes or breaks it. If we have to see Foley wrestle, hopefully it's with someone who can be a top-tier player.

3. I'm a flat-out mark for AJ and think she can be a big storyline player if they play their cards right. I wish we would have gotten more of an Edge/Lita thing with Bryan and her staying together for a while, but now that they're apart I think they could have someone come to her aid against Bryan. The main downside to that idea is that an increasing part of the audience wants Bryan to turn face (but keep the act he has now). They've got a talented worker in her for sure. As for their answer, what about Lita and Trish?

After the break, I go into everything else from 5/2. Next up, are we in for Brock vs. Rock at WM28?


4. It's not official yet, so there's still some room for them to change things. That said, they put long-term build for Rock/Cena and HHH/Taker so it can be done. If only they put that kind of attention to feuds that aren't the top guys...

5. It's a work, though this question made me want to see a Robert Irvine cameo. "TNA: Impossible" anyone?

I normally don't cover WWE Films news, but this one was relevant to wrestling in general: C.M. Punk was originally going to star in the third "Marine" movie, but Vince McMahon felt that Punk was too valuable on TV and the road. So, Miz was chosen to replace him. Smart move.

Natalya talked in a press release about a live event. Good little read.

Mark Henry also talked before a live event. Interesting that Husky Harris was advertised.

That's all for the 5/2 news. Everything from 5/3, including Superstars and Impact Wrestling coverage, will be up tomorrow. Thanks for reading!
