Jim Ross has updated his daily blog at www.jrsbarbq.com today, in this edition he talks about Teddy Hart possibly being called up to the WWE, the return of the Undertaker and Rey Mysterio, and much more. Here are a few things he had to say:
On Teddy Hart On WWE TV
I have no idea if Teddy Hart makes the grade and gets called up to the WWE or not. That’s not my hill to die on any longer, the calling up of talent. Teddy has always had physical skills but in the past Ted has demonstrated a lack of maturity and professionalism, simply cutting to the chase. Hopefully, this, yet another golden opportunity, will see Ted make his family legacy proud and fulfill his potential to be a star on the main stage.
On the Returns Of Rey Mysterio and The Undertaker
To address your two questions, Rey is wrestling at live events to help him regain his timing and to triple check the condition of his knee before he goes on PPV. That’s smart booking. Secondly, the Undertaker is not cleared medically to return to the ring but he is close and the “teaser” moments on Smackdown will hopefully build more anticipation for the return of the “Deadman”.
On Departures From The WWE
I don’t feel RVD leaving the WWE had anything to do with him being on the ECW roster but I could be wrong. Big Show needed time off and to look after his health, no matter the brand he was on at the time of his departure. Kurt Angle’s departure is a long story that I choose not to discuss in this forum.
