J.R Blog: Snoop Dogg/RAW, Shane Leaving WWE, Flair, & More
WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross his blog, which you can read at JRsBarBQ.com. Here's what JR said about:

Snoop Dogg Hosting Raw: "I am not going to be in Jacksonville but would enjoy slipping into town and just hanging out on Snoop Dogg's tour bus Monday night."

On A Commentating Change This Week: With Todd Grisham entrenched in marital bliss as I write this and on his way to Aruba, I will work with a new partner in Columbia, South Carolina Tuesday night when we tape the last Friday Night Smackdown prior to next weekend's Bragging Rights PPV. Perhaps Jerry "The King" Lawler will reunite with yours truly for this broadcast while Grisham, WWE's version of Ryan Seacrest, is on his honeymoon. Let's all just start this rumor and see if if can become a reality. You got to admit that it's good "dirt." I can see it now on some wrestling websites, "JR says he will work with King on Tuesday in Columbia."

On People Leaving The Business: I have always found it amazing when fans cannot understand when someone who is seemingly entrenched in the wrestling business decides to explore other opportunities. Both the Rock and Stone Cold have been dissed because they no longer have the desire to "wrestle" but have both said that they would be interested in making selected appearances at the right place and the right time. For some fans that isn't good enough. I admire "wrestlers" or "wrestling people" who want to explore other opportunities. Life cannot become one dimensional and one cannot allow their own lives to revolve around one, singular entity. That mindset isn't healthy or smart. Unless one is in a very unique position, IE ownership, and that's arguable, one should not allow the wrestling biz or any other biz to become their "life." Those that due usually end up miserable and make those around them unhappy as well. I have great empathy for ex-wrestlers who have to or feel compelled to to hang on to whatever they can within the wrestling business under the guise of "loving the business" while it's really all about not having any marketable skills to replace their income. This is just one of the reasons that I always encourage young wrestlers to be to get college degrees so that they will have something to fall back on in case becoming a wrestling star doesn't' work out....and it usually doesn't. If 2-3 out of 100 prospect become legit, main event level wrestling stars then a company should feel fortunate.
