WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently took to his blog to discuss various happenings in the world of professional wrestling. Below are some highlights from the selection.
Ross discussed the ongoing issues between WWE and Brock Lesnar:
“Read online about Brock Lesnar allegedly walking out of Monday Night RAW prior to his appearance on Monday’s show so to address the many Tweets @JRsBBQ and emails, I have no idea what the issue may or may not be. Generally, my philosophy on matters such as this is to keep my nose out of other’s business and that these matters are usually about one of the Two C’s, cash or creative. That may or may not be the case in this matter but I’m confident that the two sides will reunite here at crunch time in attempting to build much needed momentum for WrestleMania which will be here before we know it. In today’s world of big money and the multitude of diverse personalties involved in negotiations in all sports ad entertainment, once again the term communication elbows its way into the equation.”
He talked about the uprise in the Lucha Underground promotion:
“Work on the street is that Lucha Underground is interested in adding some former WWE alums to their roster. Victoria aka Lisa Marie Varon and Torrie Wilson are names that have been mentioned to me. Both would be great additions to the roster….quality human beings with ample name identity and talent. This info is far from confirmed but those speaking with me seem somewhat sure that discussions are being held.”
Ross also gave his thoughts on Tyson Kidd and Cesaro as WWE Tag Team Champions:
“Thinking that Cesaro/Kidd can help the WWE Tag Team scene a great deal. They are a highly skilled, reliable duo who appear to be ‘beatable’ and can add some needed life into these tag presentations. I’m thinking that there are may more fans of tag team wrestling fans well as being major fans of Diva Wrestling that many decisions makers perceive. I come to that conclusion due to the immense feedback that I get on both areas of the business.”
