I can say definitively right now that if I was offered a choice between $40K a year to be involved in the wrestling industry at some level versus $20 Million Dollars to be involved in Hollywood at some level, I wouldn't even have to think twice before shaking Vince or Dixie's hand.

Ehh all well and good to say that sitting in this position. That's the same thing as what I'm saying right now about Cena, Jericho and Foley. I don't think it's something you can talk about one way or the other unless you're actually in the position to accept or refuse offers.

I wouldn't want Rock to have a promo every four weeks, because honestly, what the f*** does he have to say? Do you really want to hear more of Cena and Rock trading completely lame pot shots? This feud sucks because there's an entire year to build it up, and if you had to hear about it more than you already do, you'd just be like "Shut the hell up already, you schmucks."

I'm not doubting your love of wrestling at all, Jakyl, don't get me wrong. I'm just denying you have the look or talent to be a Hollywood actor. And if you did, your perception of things might be skewed a little.

That's why in both cases I said "in some capacity." I wasn't implying that I would be an actor or a wrestler. I actually have no desire to be either. I'm probably one of the few wrestling fans who has NEVER at any point in his life had an inkling of desire to be a wrestler.

But if I actually thought I had a chance to get my foot in the door of the industry by going that route, then sign me up for training.

Yes, they are jealous. It goes to show how great a superstar Rock is when he can simply walk in and ask to main event a PPV.

Okay, there's no getting through to you. You are the hardest of hardcore Rock marks.

Oh right so are you talking about, say, "being a wrestling writer" and "being a hollywood scriptwriter"?

That works, but yeah the WWE's film division is just so laughable right now.

The worst thing is there a many, many and I do mean many small production companies with far smaller budgets than the WWE who actually have an incredible amount of respect within the industry and they're making a good buck or two.

Well those would be my dreams in either industry but like I said, I'm willing to take anything in wrestling if they wanted to pay me lower-middle-class salary. Announcer, timekeeper, referee, ring crew, whatever.

Just not security because then I have to have my back to the action!

Since I am not the most PHYSICALLY INTIMIDATING person I always got one of the spots on the floor, either in the middle or the back. You get a chair and you're positioned in the aisle so there is no one in front of you obstructing your vision. Not a bad gig tbqh.
