– Jim Ross is blogging again! Here are the highlights from the latest entry:
On Ric Flair: Today is Ric Flair's birthday and we send Naitch our utmost best wishes. We exchanged text messages this morning and it meant alot to each of us. Ric was in OK spirits. I love the guy and for him to publicly say that I was the "sound track" to his career at the WWE HOF function in Orlando was awesome. I'll write more about some Flair memories this weekend.
On Arn Anderson in the Hall of Fame: Is Arn Anderson Hall of Fame worthy in the future? Hell, yeah. Double A is one of the most underrated wrestlers that I ever had the privilege of working with over the years. AA doesn't need the Horsemen to be considered for any honor. We even worked together in Mid South.
On WWE NXT: I really enjoyed the innovation, feeling of newness, and potential of NXT. Anxious to follow it weekly. Love the combo of reality TV and wrestling. I'm very interested to see NXT evolve and loved the commentary.
