Reaction to Daniel Bryan segment from Monday's Raw:

"Solid Daniel Bryan interview where he unfortunately had to relinquish the Intercontinental Title. I'm just guessing here but I would not be surprised if DB didn't have concussion issues but it certainly could be a neck issue as many speculate. I don't know his diagnosis but I do that his health is his most important commodity and if he's essentially done with his career it will be ill timed, as are all career ending injuries, but Daniel Bryan is the type of individual that any wrestling company should want to associate with and he can help WWE in a variety of ways. Hopefully Daniel Bryan can get a clean bill of health to resume his career but he will have to change some of the things he does in the ring whether he likes it or not and embrace the 'less is more' philosophy of in ring, bell to bell activity. The 'less is more' philosophy, taking unprotected and unconventional bumps, wrestling too fast while taking higher risks and not stopping long enough to sell what has been done, isn't doing any one in the business any favors. It's the current trend within the business that sees very few wrestling holds properly applied in a business with wrestling in its name."

Ronda Rousey's success:

"Ronda Rousey adorns the cover of Sports Illustrated this week and no matter what is speculated, I still feel she will be in AT&T Stadium next April to be a special attraction at WrestleMania Texas. Still think Ronda vesus Stephanie McMahon, and her stacked deck, would make a sensational 'special attraction' and is a creative booker's dream."

WWE Payback not seeming like a big show:

"I will be back from Baltimore in time to watch Payback from the same city but I don't feel the 'buzz' for the event that one would generally prefer. Perhaps it will overachieve and be a 'sleeper' event. It should not be an enhanced version of Monday Night Raw only with it being on Sunday night instead of Monday."

His Baltimore show this Saturday:

"Big week for yours truly as I head to Baltimore soon for our first ever RINGSIDE w/ Jim Ross Show there this Saturday night May 16 at Rams Head Live with the VIP meet & greets starting at 6pm, doors opening for general admission ticket holders opening at 7 and our show starting at 8. We'll have JR's products available including BBQ Sauce, Chipotle Ketchup, Seasoning and Main Event Mustard. Stock up and pay no shipping. @RamsHeadLive made a few more VIP tickets available and all tickets are available online at ramsheadlive.com or at the venue on Saturday. We have plenty of general admission tickets remaining and they are only $22.50 in advance and $25 dollars the day of the show at the venue. I'm looking forward to bringing our show to one of my favorite cities this Saturday evening."
