WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry over at his website where he gives his thoughts on Sting being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, why WWE changed their rings in the mid 1990’s, and his autobiography. Here are the highlights.
On Sting being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame:
Sting, who certainly deserves and has earned induction into the WWE Hall of Fame dodged a major bullet in his recent WWE NOC bout in Houston vs. WWE Champion Seth Rollins. Most people don’t realize just how close this matter was to becoming a disaster. For the ignorant and uneducated who blame Rollins for this snafu, please re-evaluate your uninformed opinion. It was an accident and to hold Rollins sole accountable is ludicrous.
On why WWE changed their rings in the mid 1990’s:
We changed the rings in WWE to be more talent/bump friendly from the extremely hard rings that WWF utilized based on the feedback I received from Talents in the mid 90’s.
On his autobiography:
Scott Williams, Paul O’Brien and yours truly are making major headway on my autobiography and it’s coming together better now than ever. I’m relieved as to where we are at this point in time. Yes, I’m obsessed to provide those that buy it a great read. Our team is doing a terrific job. Communicating between Houston and Ireland is challenging but fun. Some nights I catch myself writing well after midnight. Hey, that’s late for me. Still planning a 2016 release date.
