Jim Ross Comments On Chyna’s Recent Video and Departed TNA Talent Possibly Joining WWE

– Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry online. Below are the highlights:

On rumors that he’s signed on for the NJPW Tokyo Dome show on January 4th: “Read online today where “sources say” that I’m broadcasting the New Japan PPV on January 4 from Tokyo. Let me make this perfectly clear. I have no deal. I have not personally spoken to Jeff Jarrett since he left WWE with me holding the bag on a blotched contract matter that I should have handled batter. Lesson learned for me. Jeff and I agreed to have him on the Ross Report Podcast that will drop on December 16 via text messages. So, here’s the bottom line, if we do work out something and it’s going to take a helluva deal for me to miss my birthday, a weekend in Vegas with my wife and the UFC on January 3 to see @RondaRousey fight to travel to Tokyo to do pro wrestling with a new partner, a new crew and a new talent roster. IF we are able to make a deal, then the publicity seeking “source” can brag that he was right all along.”

On Chyna’s video slamming Stephanie McMahon: “I saw a You Tube clip today of Joanie Lauer aka Chyna and whether one agrees or not with what she had to say it was great seeing her seemingly back to being her old self. I sure hope that I’m right about that one. @ChynaJoanLauer is her twitter handle and I wish her nothing but the best. She was never an issue while working in WWE when I was the head of talent relations and helped WWE succeed during the Attitude Era as a valued member of our talent roster. She’s endured enough challenges and if she sets her mind to it, she can begin to enjoy life again and help many people through her extraordinary journey in life. One can only imagine how much money she would have drawn with @Kharma back in the day as that would have been a match that I would have paid to see.”

On WWE potentially hiring departed TNA talent: “Been getting this question and I will admit that I do NOT know the answer but if Impact Wrestling talents were to become available and WWE did not consider hiring some of them to short term deals to work with the WWE’s NXT rookies then that is a mistake in my view. Rookies cannot get better working with other rookies nor can they improve without working with their betters in front of a paying crowd 3-4 night per week. It’s just that simple. Plus, who knows, the experienced hands may find new life and actually get over which would help the main roster which is somewhat stale at this time.”
