Jim Ross recently updated his Blog. Here are a few highlights:
Jim Ross said that Steve Austin was backstage at RAW this past Monday, however he had the choice to be involved on the show if he wanted, but choused not to be.
Ross commented on the fact that Hogan vs. Austin will most likely never happen in WWE. He noted that it takes “two to tango,” implying that WWE were only partly to blame for Hogan not being part of this year’s WrestleMania.
On the decision to put Batista vs The Undertaker on fairly early during Sunday’s WrestleMania 23 PPV (something that a lot of people have been talking about since Sunday night), Ross wrote, “Undertaker vs. Batista was just as big, perhaps bigger to some, as the Cena-HBK match at Wrestlemania 23. Today’s prevailing theory is to create some separation from the featured attractions such as the two aforementioned bouts. Some like this concept and some do not. Most of the wrestlers I talk to do. Without a doubt, the two primary main events at Mania 23 were Taker/Batista and HBK/Cena, no matter where they occurred on the card. They could have reversed roles as to when they each occurred on the card and I would still be saying the same thing. Years ago it was different. The card grew, match by match, and every match was considered to be somewhat more important than the previous match. Times have changed, and that’s simply not the way TV shows or live events are structured these days. Some folks are going to like this philosophy and some obviously don’t.“
