Ben Coulter from Miami asks:
Hi WrestleBuzz! You guys do a consistently flawless job of covering all the latest happenings within the wrestling industry and I really love your new smartphone app as well, so keep up the excellent work! Anyway, here is a question I am just dying to get a straight answer to:
Last year, I read in GZW2K1's very own HotWire Magazine that the company was open to drastically switch up their tour locations and the venues at which they perform some of their biggest events. The most intriguing thing I remember reading is that GZW2K1 were seriously considering switching the venues of the two big pay-per-views, and would have Aftermath taking place in Hong Kong and Heatwave taking place at the GZW2K1 Coliseum in Atlanta. I also remember the article stating that the Summer Heat tour would be scrapped entirely and we'd be seeing more shows in places like South America and Europe. Was there any truth to any of this or was I just smoking too much weed? Thanks!
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
This rumor was floating around in early 2012 and there is indeed substance to it. GZW2K1 were exploring the possibilities of tinkering with their annual tour schedules but there were never any concrete developments and now the whole topic has died down completely. I believe Heatwave 10 and Aftermath swapping venues was just one of those little nuggets of fabrication which spread like wildfire across the internet.
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
I've been a long time believer that GZW2K1 needs to completely revamp their pay-per-view format especially as far as locations are concerned. I would love to see tours in such places as Germany and Brazil; two places that are potential hotbeds for wrestling. Now I don't believe there was ever any real consideration given to switching A2K and Heatwave.
Andrew Moore from London, England asks:
I was really intrigued by the answer you guys gave to the Rupert Martin question in the first 'Ask WrestleBuzz' feature from a few days ago. You seemed pretty adamant that no one in GZW2K1 wants Rupert Martin back because he is deemed too difficult to work with, but it can't really be that simple, can it? Surely, in order to have the huge success he had in such a short period of time, Rupert had to have had at least one or two influential personalities fighting in his corner, right? I mean, for someone supposedly so hated backstage, this enigma rose to the top even quicker than the likes of Leon Corbin, so he must've surely had allies in positions of authority?
I suppose my question comes in two parts.
Part 1) Who did Rupert Martin actually get along with during his GZW2K1 tenures?
Part 2) If... IF... Rupert Martin were to return, how do you see him fitting into today's Globalverse?
Thanks WrestleBuzz and keep up the awesome work!
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
As far as Globalstars, Rupert had a working relationship with Ring of Honor Icon Sean "Magic" Fiery and Richard Napier. Though it seemed hot and cold, the relationship he shared with Lady Eva Hikari and Lord Leon Corbin simply cannot be ignored. Of course (as mentioned before) Ring of Honor Icon Alexander Hunt and he shared an almost father/son relationship.
I know it's never say never in the sport of wrestling but I just don't see Rupert Martin EVER coming back to GZW2K1. If by some slim chance he did return I imagine he would be inserted into the low card regardless of his status as a former World Heavyweight Champion in order to insure a level of humility was injected into him.
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
Rupert Martin was -- and still is -- good friends with Richard Napier and the two benefited immensely from their in-ring rivalry with one another five years ago. Napier is, of course, part of the Fortune family, who are extremely influential within the GroundZero Globalverse. This perhaps sheds some light on how Martin was able to climb the ladder so quickly. As for your second question, GZW2K1 and Rupert Martin would only allow for Martin to return to the Globalverse if the business deal were beneficial to both parties. That won't ever happen, but if it did? I'd have to believe they'd insert Martin right back into the main event scene. I can't imagine Martin agreeing to anything less.
Rico Willis from Kentucky asks:
Hi WrestleBuzz, I am a V.I.P. subscriber and it is worth every damn dime, so kudos to you folks. I hope you don't mind, but I have a small handful of quick questions I'd like you to answer.
1) What happened to Jon Kellar? He made a return and I felt he was gathering momentum and then he just disappeared.
2) Okay, I just don't get it. Is Chris Cairns a heel or a babyface? One minute the crowd are cheering him to victory against Clancy McClean and then two minutes later he's getting booed out of the building for attacking Gideon Reece.
3) Is there legit heat on Raze from GroundZero management? I heard he has been voicing displeasure with the company. Is this a ticking time-bomb or is it no biggie?
4) Finally, who is the smart pick to become crowned the 2013 Lord of the Coliseum?
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
1. Lord Kellar indeed had major momentum and was in line for a lengthy World title run following the 2012 Lord of the Coliseum tournament. His return was marked with a high level of backstage submission to authority and humbleness never before seen by the multi-time champion even though he was to basically begin from the bottom. The official reason for Lord Kellar's departure has been logged as indefinitely suspensed due to substance abuse (an issue that has earmarked his GZW2K1 career).
2. Chris Cairns IS Chris Cairns. There is no clear definition to his alignment this late in his career. Cairns has transcended into that upper echelons of Globalstars that don't fit into any box as far as face, heel, or tweener at any one time. Very few have reached this level and have rightfully so become indispensable to GZW2K1.
3. Though I haven't heard anything official from the Command Suite, there has been whispers that Raze has basically played his last card in GZW2K1. It is well documented the mutual displeasure between the company and the Globalstar throughout the years. I can only venture that the Dread King WON'T be fired but instead he will de-pushed to the point that he will be forced to quit.
4. I think it's far too early to give a solid pick on the next Lord of the Coliseum as GZW2K1 is unsure which Globalstars are even interested in participating. Now if LotC was to start today the hands on pick would be Lord Leon Corbin since the World Heavyweight Champion is slotted for the tournament. Also I'm hearing that there may not be a 2013 Lord of the Coliseum tournament.
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
1) Jon Kellar is currently focusing on other business ventures and personal issues outside of professional wrestling. He was unhappy with how GZW2K1 were using him as he felt he should have been involved in the World Title scene. Kellar is notorious as someone who lacks motivation and he simply felt that being positioned as a midcard player was beneath him.
2) Chris Cairns is Chris Cairns, like Darrell says. He is a GroundZero veteran who has worked a multitude of positions throughout his career (wrestler, booker, manager, columnist, talkshow host etc) and the fans seem happy to play along with his recent silliness out of respect more than anything else. Cairns' inconsistency is not something a younger and less tenured Globalstar would be able to get away with.
3) GZW2K1 is well accustomed to dealing with egos. There are reports of issues involving Raze on a consistent basis, but I honestly don't see it being a big deal now or ever.
4) My sources suggest that GroundZero management are high on Lord Leon Corbin as the 'safe' pick, but they are also quite tempted to experiment by launching Sir Justinian into the role of Lordship as he is seen as a fresh and exciting prospect, much like Munin in 2012.
Jessica Burke from Seattle asks:
Who are the current locker room leaders and who are the current locker room douchebags? I'm talking legitimate 'out of character.'
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
This is a tricky one that I would prefer not to answer in order not to alienate any of the Globalstars in the locker room since they are a main source of insider information for WrestleBuzz. I can say that as a senior member of the locker room, Lord Corbin is highly respected and his word carries great sway amongst everyone.
Sara Hayes from Calgary asks:
Hi guys, me again! Loving this new feature you guys are doing and I think I'll be asking many more questions as time goes on. My question for today is quite short, so here goes: is there legit heat on Zachary Sharp for no-showing his Ring of Honor Icon induction?
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
Yes. His beatdown by the Honor Guard was very legit and was brought about because of his no-show.
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
Is the sky blue, Sara? Yes, GZW2K1 were furious with Zachary Sharp and they remain furious to this day. Zac will always be viewed as one of the most talented Globalstars of all time, but his no-show for his Ring of Honor induction was read as him being hugely disrespectful to the company that 'made' him.
Brian Robson from Cape Town, South Africa asks:
Hi guys, I absolutely love your website and have been an avid WrestleBuzz follower for nearly ten years! Anyway, I have a few questions which center around the GZW2K1 Ring of Honor Icons. When are we going to see the next class getting inducted and who do you think are dead-certs for induction? Thanks!
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
It was an unspoken rule that every three years there was a class inducted into the Ring of Honor but it is clear now that this doesn't hold true. I honestly have no idea when the next induction will be. Since inductees have to be at least semi-retired I would venture to think that Kandi Fortune-Corbin, Lord Jon Kellar, and Lord Seth Raide are a first time ballot go.
Charles M. Burns from Springfield asks:
Any chance you guys could rank each Lord of the Coliseum winner in terms of their legacy from least important to most important? And provide a quick explanation for each please? Would be really insightful.
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
Here is my current list. The order will most likely change by the end of the night but the top three wouldn't. And for the ones that have no reason...there is just no reason.
9. Lady Munin -2012. The newest and least exposed. Given time I'm sure she would have made an impact.
8. Lord Seth Raide - 2005.
7. Lady Eva Hikari - 2011. The first female Globalstar to have ever won the LotC. Overlooked underdog that overcame and won.
6. Lord Jon H. Kellar - 2006
5. Icon Lord Sean "Magic" Fiery - 2008. Relentless drive year after year to finally win LotC.
4. Lord Leon Corbin - 2007.
3. Icon Lord John Taylor - 2004. Probably the most all around packaged LotC of them all. His march throughout the tournament was a thing of beauty. Set the precedent on how to tackle the beast that is the annual Lord of the Coliseum tournament.
2. Lord Kaos - 2010/2011. Currently the only two-time LotC winner which is even more great because he won them back to back years. Neither feat duplicated yet.
1. Icon Lord Deacon Kane - 2002. The first winner of LotC.
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
Charles, quick tip for you here, and I'm not meaning to sound like a jackass, but this is the type of question that could fill one of our V.I.P member exclusive podcasts or one of our V.I.P. member exclusive in-depth articles. If you really want this type of insight, with in-depth answers, then I truly recommend you consider going V.I.P. and I promise you won't look back.
That said, my ranking would be very similar to Darrell's and for the reasons given. But I'd likely switch around Kellar and Raide and bump Eva up to number four at the expense of her husband. The top three is especially strong.
Lord John Taylor's Lordship win was an important one for the company coming back from 2004's 'Restart' and revitalizing the television product. The Gunman's role as Lord in late 2004 and early 2005 was undoubtedly a very important one.
Lord Kaos may forever go down as the only Globalstar to win two consecutive Lord of the Coliseum titles. That is a massive feat and he had the company in the palm of his hand during his two years on top.
Whether you view him as the greatest of all time or not, Lord Deacon Kane's Lordship legacy set the benchmark as he was the first Lord of the Coliseum winner. If we're talking purely about the 'legacy' then Kane wins it easily.
Naheem Huissen from Pakistan asks:
Hi WrestleBuzz! Thanks you so much for being such a wonderful resource for the smart wrestling fan. I went V.I.P. last month and have not looked back since. Anyway, I have a question I would like to put to yourselves as experts in your field. What were GZW2K1 thinking to give Munin the 2012 Lord of the Coliseum win and GZW2K1 World Heavyweight Champion also? Do you think GZW2K1 regrets this decision? What is her legacy as champion? Where is Munin now and what is her relationship with GroundZero? If she returned tomorrow, what would happen? I was not a fan and was disgusted to find her being pushed to main event status. Thanks for your incoming answer which I anticipate with eagerness.
WrestleBuzz columnist Darrell Davis answers:
Lady Munin legitimately won the 2012 Lord of the Coliseum. As far as keeping the World title on it basically came down to shake up the mundane status quo as well as create a new main eventer. The theory was great but putting it to the test was a mild success. It was clear Lady Munin wasn't fully prepared for the pressures that accompany being the World Heavyweight Champion.
WrestleBuzz Editor Barry Mann answers:
I think GZW2K1 gambled on Munin as the new female face of the company and the gamble did not pay off, but I am not entirely sure why you are 'disgusted' by the fact that management ran with her in the first place. She is/was an exciting young talent who perhaps simply could not cope with too much too soon.
