Jim Ross Talks Four Horsewomen, Sting/Triple H, Lucha Underground

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross took to his blog Thursday to discuss various topics related to wrestling. Below are some of the highlights from the post.

Ross spoke on the draw of having Ronda Rousey and the Four Horsewomen appear at a WWE event:

“With that said the top attraction from the world of MMA in my opinion is @RondaRousey who’s nothing but box office and has a truck load of charisma and lives with the Four Horsewomen who are all big wrestling fans. It would be so easy to book this attraction while garnering tons of publicity.

Needless to say, the entire MMA/WWE connection is nothing more than speculation at this time but I do know that Ronda Rousey and her Horsewomen would be fun for which to create a WM31 scenario.”

He touched on the impending Triple H/Sting matchup at “Fastlane” and subsequently WrestleMania:

“I’m guessing that the Sting-HHH face to face meeting at the Fast Lane PPV emanating from Memphis later this month will be highlighted by some sort of physicality to better ignite the personal issue between The Stinger and The Cerebral Assassin. Then, I see this rivalry being well built between the Memphis event and WM31. I like this paring and feel that their match at WM31, which seems inevitable, will be significant if it is positioned properly on the card and in the event’s promotion.”

Ross also gave his thoughts on Lucha Underground and its start thus far:

“Enjoyed Lucha Underground Wednesday night and watched a couple of episodes of it. If the audience can find this show and the Lucha folks can continue to provide their small but growing audience strong matches, intriguing characters, create new stars and a way to separate the multiple, masked talents on their show, I think this brand has a chance to become a successful TV show sooner than later. The issue of fans finding the El Rey Network remains an issue as does fans trying to find TNA on Destination America. Viewing habits are challenging to establish and I’m suggesting that both Lucha and TNA have a challenging journey ahead of them for the next 18 months or so.”
