Jim Ross Gives Early Review Of Mick Foley's "Countdown To Lockdown"

[Kellie]

Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry, which you can check out at this link. Some highlights from this entry:

- Got an advance copy of Mick Foley's newest book, release date TBD, entitled 'Countdown to Lockdown' and my friend Mick has penned another hit. I did not have the highest of expectations for this book considering what I perceived it to be about based on the title.

I was wrong.

Mick covers a variety of wrestling topics including his days as a WWE broadcaster including his honest and candid thoughts on the experience. Mick also shares more than one compelling conversation that he had with Vince McMahon during those days.

'Mrs. Foley's Baby Boy' is an amazingly gifted writer and is always brutally honest with his innermost feelings and opinions on a variety of topics. I have read this book twice this week and have no issues whatsoever in encouraging you to give it a shot when it is released. It will be around 300 pages and will be a paperback as I understand it.

Mick does this book in journal form which makes for a quick and fun read that I feel very confident that wrestling fans will enjoy.

I wish things had worked out for Mick at the announce table in WWE as I thought that we could have evolved into a great team had we the opportunity to work together longer. Nonetheless we certainly had our 'moments' on air and and our share of laughs.

However, with today's emphasis on 'look' over talent the two of us may have been bound for radio before all would have eventually been said and done.
