Jim Ross Blog
- Jim Ross' has a new blog up at http://www.jrsbarbq.com/ - the following are among the highlights:
* Why does the cameras shoot young, Josh Mathews with that far away look in his eye after each backstage interview that he does? Budding cinephotoghers chime in please.
* I'm anxious to see Nattie Neidhart in the ring on Friday Night Smackdown via my DVR copy. The WWE Divas need to continue to steer the course and be involved in ongoing storylines and their personas will earn more equity. It's not going to happen over night but consistency and not missing a week of TV exposure in some shape, form, or fashion will make it happen.
* Got positive results Friday on my latest CAT SCAN this time for a lung issue. Now waiting on blood test results which I hope to have next week. I was told that the nerve in my face will regenerate likely one inch per moth so that looks like it might be 3-4 months until I'm facially ready for TV....or not....it could be next week if Mother Nature decides to give this Okie a break.
