JR: Defends WWE PG, Bret Hart's Health, Expects Austin To "Pop A Rating", Warrior/WWE
Written by Richard Gray on Mar 11, 2010 - 3:14:14 PM
Jim Ross has a new blog entry available on his official website. Below are the highlights:
- Can we please stop receiving emails about TV ratings on wrestling shows IE PG, TV14, etc? PG is more politically correct in today's marketplace and is likely the smartest thing to keep one's company off the negative radar screen of the various consciences of those "watch dogs" who need to monitor every little thing in our lives. Personally, I don't care what a rating is for a show as long as I enjoy the program that I'm watching. I'm not going to watch a TV 14 show with my granddaughters or with the children of my friends for the record. If I have this burning desire to see blood then I can easily watch MMA if I choose. BTW I do watch a great deal of MMA on TV. I don't care to see nor will I condone chair shots to another's skull so if that is a TV14 criteria then I'm out. That's overtly dumb in the heightened era of concussions. Chair shots are like run on's in that we see so many of them that they end up meaning next to nothing because they are not special any longer.
- Other emailers have asked me if I thought Bret Hart would be "100% by Wrestlemania?" The man had a major stroke and still has lingering issues from that issue that aren't going away any time soon and likely forever. It is a testament to Bret's desire and strong mindset to even be stepping in a wrestling ring at 52 years of age and being a stroke survivor. So, no Bret Hart will not be 100% physically at WM26, yes, it makes him vulnerable and, yes, his mindset to compete and perform at a high level has never been better from what I can see and after talking to him. I think WM26 is special for many, many reasons and seeing Bret "Hitman" Hart in the ring, likely for the last time in this particular presentation, is one of them.
- I expect Stone Cold to "pop a TV rating" on Raw this week on a show that will emanate from San Diego. Some big time bouts are scheduled.
- The same two or three Warrior fanatics email me virtually every day about what I have heard about Warrior and WWE. I'm tapping here. I've heard nothing. What one hears today could change tomorrow. I don't know the relationship between the two entities. I honestly don't care about their relationship. Why? Because I can't affect it one way or another. If the two aforementioned parties are happy with whatever they are feeling then I am ecstatic....borderlining on euphoria.
