Jim Ross has updated the Q&A section of JRsBarBQ.com with an interesting note about Jack Swagger, the last person JR signed to a developmental deal while he was the head of WWE's talent relations. JR says the fellow Oklahoman has talent but acknowledges the talks that its very early in his professional career to be holding a World title. Ross said, "It very well might be too early for Swagger to carry the load on ECW as their Champion. I can only say that time will tell but the kid can be special."

Yesterday was Batista's birthday. He turned 40 years old.

This is just a reminder that the Armageddon 2008 DVD will be released tomorrow.
