I can't imagine Lucy is staying there just because he likes it (and indeed, he cheated to get out), but he still mostly stays put. Seems a nice job for Raphael or Michael.

Seems more like the domain of Raph.  A warrior and his host aren't necessarily ideal for prison warden and guards.  Whereas the Arch tasked with, you know, imprisoning Azazel in an earthly tomb, would be a better fit. (There, that's as close as I'll get to saying it here)

Likewise, if the Mothers wanted to destroy the universe, they could (theoretically) let the Outsiders in.  Then either the Outsiders or Management would destroy the universe.  Even if the Mothers aren't pulling the trigger, the universe is dead either way.

The fact that I can drive a car down the road with several hundred pounds of stuff at 60 miles per hour does not mean that I can carry several hundred pounds of stuff down the road at 60 miles per hour.  Having the ability to let someone else do a thing does not mean you yourself have the ability to do that thing.

Also, what's with the sudden screenshotting of WoJ?  Can we not provide links to the original source?  Because I can fake a screenshot of WoJ that says whatever I want with no problem whatsoever.

They might be from a private facebook group that non-members can't see even with the link.

Besides which, having your universe destroyed his way is probably a mercy kill compared to actually experiencing an Outsider invasion first-hand.

Yeah, I don't know the particulars about the sources for the Wii, but they seem consistent with what I'd imagine is the case.  They seem plausible.
