WWE News Jim Ross talks about Hulk Hogan being the talk of the wrestling world, competition amongst wrestling companies, and his current health situation By Rich Twilling Oct 28, 2009 - 02:44 PM Email This Article | Printer Friendly Page Send Us News & Results | Back to Main Listing WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross updated the blog section of JRsbarbq.com. The following items are among the highlights. -Ross on Hulk Hogan: “Hulk Hogan is ALL over the news this week which re-establishes the premise that Hulk is one of the greatest, self promoters of all time...BROTHER! Now, that isn't necessarily a bad thing as any independent contractor who is entrepreneurial in spirit such as a pro wrestler has to have the ability to promote one's self in order to survive over time.” Twill’s Two Cents: Hogan is still the biggest name in professional wrestling and his signing with TNA will definitely cause a huge stir in the wrestling world. -Ross on competition in wrestling: “But every company that spends more time ragging on the "competition" or fixating on putting another company down is not focusing on their own brand. Today's wrestling business needs to simply focus on how THEY can improve what THEY do and not seemingly and endlessly focus on the "other guys" whoever the "other guys" may be.” Twill’s Two Cents: I could not agree more. While it is necessary to be aware of what other companies are doing, the most important thing for any business is to worry about what you are doing in house and bettering your own product. -Ross on his current health situation: “We went through another battery of tests yesterday which was one of my more challenging days physically with all the running around seeing a variety of doctors. I do not have the test results back but hope to hear something in a day or two.” Twill’s Two Cents: Of course, I hope Ross gets a clean bill of health and is able to live his life the way he would like to. Other topics include whether Steve Austin will appear on Hulk Hogan’s tour, WWE Classics on Demand, and the sports movies currently being aired on ESPN. HELP SUPPORT DOT NET!
