Still the same question, do you know about any active wrestlers who also have backstage contracts like producers, writers or what, and does Pete Dunne has an official producer contract as he produced some Speed matches, and what about Shawn Spears?

A lot of those people are employees of the company, which is why many of them got furloughed during the pandemic, and then brought back. There are some talent that simply pick up the extra work to prove that they can do it, and see if they have a knack for it. Shawn Spears is a coach at the PC.

Probably know the answer and it would never happen, but in WWE 2K in the MyRise mode, they have characters that are wrestling media personalities. if 2K offered to compensate would you consider having your likeness in the game (or allowing them to use the Fightful name/logo)

I would never accept money or accommodations from a wrestling company, or anything of that sort. There was a character that looked eerily similar to me in one of the games (I think it was the garbage 2K20 game), but it was almost certainly a coincidence. I wouldn't care if my likeness was used if there was a good charitable donation made to a good cause. I can't imagine why they would want to though.

After the WBD sale is finalized, do you think AEW will look back into bringing in Trey Miguel when he becomes a free agent?

Yes. I do. I hope by then, whoever made that call is long gone. Trey Miguel immediately apologized for his comments, and beyond that is a good dude and a fantastic performer. He should be there in AEW with the rest of the Rascalz. I'm glad TNA brought him back and he's doing well there. Growth should be recognized.
