WWE News Jim Ross comments on WWE star Chris Jericho controversial comments, Fedor Emelianenko's fight, and offers advice to people interested in becoming pro wrestlers By Jason Powell Nov 8, 2009 - 08:26 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 Chris Jericho: "O.K. so Chris Jericho made an error in judgment with an insensitive remark recently that has made TMZ, etc headlines. Chris' choice of words are regretful but he is one of the most open minded and fair people that I know. Now this Lobo dude is running with the press op's which under score that Lobo wasn't as emotionally distraught over this untimely incident that has been blown largely out of proportion. Next." Powell's POV: Agreed. Lobo got his moment of "fame." Time to move on. -Ross on Fedor Emelianenko: "Fedor Emelianenko won his CBS fight Saturday night with not too many strains and pains but also not without some angst and a bloody face which likely added to the moment. Fedor really needed to win to help CBS build their MMA franchise around their only big time, marketable star. Brett Rogers, who did much more press than did Fedor because Fedor allegedly doesn't speak English well enough, was obviously gassed in the second round and became easy prey for the hard hitting Russian who continues to build his mystique and legend among MMA fans." Powell's POV: I've yet to see Fedor show any sign of charisma during his media appearances. Obviously, the bottom line is what he does during his fights, but it will be interesting to see if Strikeforce can get him as over with the casual MMA fans as Kimbo Slice is/was. Yes, I know how said that seems. -Ross offers advice to people interested in becoming pro wrestlers: "I get so many Q&A's from young men primarily who want advice on how to become a wrestler. I am not over optimistic about this choice of a vocation if one isn't interested in first obtaining a college degree or learning a viable trade. Reason being is so few are going to make it as wrestlers and having nothing to fall back on isn't wise. I would tell my own children this information....earning a living in pro wrestling isn't easy or too likely to happen for the vast majority of those who dream of being a wrestling star. I always say chase one's dreams but be realistic when doing so." Powell's POV: Good advice from J.R. Other topics include J.R.'s trip to Nebraska, more on CBS and MMA, WWE overseas business, Mickey Rourke wants to wrestle. HELP SUPPORT DOT NET!
