WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated the blog section of JRsbarbq.com. The following items are among the highlights.

-Ross on his health and status: "For the record, I don't have a burning desire right now, while addressing my present health issues, to get back on weekly TV whatsoever. I am much more focused on the medical tests that I will undergo tomorrow which are the results of previous tests done a week or so ago. Yes sir, I'm ready for this little journey to end and to be 100% ready to rock....and that will happen."

Twill's Two Cents: JR's health should be his number one concern, and I love his positive attitude about getting back to 100% and returning to television. All the best, Jim.

-Ross on the new Hulk Hogan DVD set: "The WWE Hulk Hogan DVD has some great, old bouts on it including some taped matches from live events that really put in some time. I love the atmosphere of the darkened arena and the focus being on the ring and the performers in the ring and not on fans looking to get their 15 minutes or seconds of fame especially those that would rather watch the 'tron instead of the ring. I know, I'm old school......so what?"

Twill's Two Cents: There are aspects of the newer product that I enjoy, but overall, I'm an old school guy too. I miss the darkened arena where only the ring had lights over it. As for the Hogan DVD, I'm looking forward to checking it out.

-Ross on the Ultimate Warrior going into the WWE Hall of Fame: "I personally feel the former Blade Runner is deserving and just because the guy is considered "controversial" should not exclude him from any accolade. Warrior's accomplishments and contributions to the business are what counts and hearing Warrior's acceptance speech live and in person would be classic and likely a "Wrestlemania Moment."

Twill's Two Cents: I cannot disagree with any of that. I hope he goes in and I hope he more than just appears at Mania XXVI.

Other topics include Kurt Angle, free shipping of his online products, who else he would like to see inducted into the HOF in 2010, and his prediction of the Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto fight.
