Hulk talks Warrior, Rock and Austin at the HoF, why Razor in the Hall, longtime authority figure going?, where's Shane?, ex-WWE Champion misses Punk, Sting-WWE update and Questions on Punk at Mania, Bryan's music and Tuesday Night Titans

Hulk Hogan acknowledged Warrior's Hall of Fame speech. I hope they've truly buried that hatchet as entertaining as it was for Warrior to lay into him at times.

The Rock attended the Hall of Fame. He was a nice surprise last night.

Paul Orndorff was interviewed. I'm surprised he was at WrestleMania given his temperament.

Stone Cold talked about attending the Hall of Fame. There's just something odd about Austin drinking wine instead of beer.

Everything else from yesterday is after the break.
Diamond Dallas Page recalled a conversation with Triple H about putting Jake Roberts and Razor Ramon/Scott Hall in the Hall of Fame once they got clean. I'm very proud of them.

It's being reported Vickie Guerrero is now leaving WWE to pursue a career outside of wrestling. The two sides split on good terms. I can't fault her for moving to a new stage in her life. I wish her the best! Hopefully Raquel Diaz continues the lineage strong in the years to come.

Speaking of lineages, here's a piece on what Shane McMahon's up to. Cool look at what it's like behind-the-scenes in WWE. There were some fun times had with him as a wrestler.

Rey Mysterio misses C.M. Punk. So do I, Rey. So do I.

Speaking of Punk, the lead singer of Living Colour discussed Punk using "Cult of Personality". I love that song...

C.M. Punk was watching an NHL game the day of WrestleMania 30.

Sting dropped a hint of competing at WrestleMania 31. I THINK I'd be OK with Sting vs. Taker then to wrap up both men's careers. Taker going in the Hall of Fame in Dallas at WM32 is a must.

WWE did big business at WrestleMania, as you might expect.

For my take on yesterday's PWInsider.com questions:
1. I don't see how that would benefit Punk in any way with his goals. I think WWE might try to escort him out if he did something so foolish.

2. I think I'd be OK with it. I see virtually no chance of ever getting Punk vs. Austin, though. Punk might never wrestle for WWE again.

3. WWE can't shell out for every song. Punk's very lucky they did for him. I don't think WWE wants to go in that direction for Bryan. Obviously his longtime fans would get the reference, but I don't know if it's worth confusing the large portion of fans who just know his WWE work.

4. I wouldn't be surprised at all. That fits WWE's style in a number of ways. But they'd much prefer Smackdown in that timeslot I think.

5. I'm going on the assumption there's not much of a chance of Punk returning. I think it's time we accept he's moving on from being an active WWE wrestler.

More wrestling tomorrow.
