Here are highlights from Jim Ross’ latest updates to the Q&A portion of his website:
On the crowd’s reaction to Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock at WrestleMania X8: “WM18 was uniquely booked but Rock and Hogan should have closed the show in hindsight but no one predicted how the crowd was going to go crazy for the match much less embrace Hulk as they did.”
On the rumored issues between WWE and both Rey Mysterio and Alberto Del Rio: “I am not a party to their grievances nor do I care to engage in them. I know little about their issues but always enjoyed working with both men. I signed Rey to WWE years ago and have always had a good relationship with him. I plan to have ADR on my podcast soon.”
On ‘what went wrong’ with Curtis Axel’s push: “Don’t know where WWE is with Curtis but he needs to show more personality and more physicality.”
