JR's Blog: Ross Report Podcast Tonight at 9 ET w/ Wade Keller Talking Survivor Series & More, RAW Feedback, Wrestle Kingdom 9 on PPV, Online Holiday Shopping for JR's Products, Q&A's Updated

Posted: Nov 26th 2014 By: Jim Ross

New, Ross Report Podcast drops tonight at 9 pm ET with Pro Wrestling Torch's Wade Keller and I reviewing WWE's Survivor Series, Wrestle Kingdom 9 PPV, the new, Impact TV deal, ROH PPV and three VERY intriguing questions for me from Master Keller. Check us out at podcastone.com or via iTunes. You will enjoy this podcast and I also hope that you will subscribe to the Ross Report for FREE at podcastone.com and at iTunes. Let's grill...

RAW Thoughts via DVR....

Enjoyed seeing Daniel Bryan back on TV in a unique role for the evening. I'm not overwhelmed with the entire authority concept within the business as I feel that it's largely run its course notwithstanding the fact that no one has truly ever followed McMahon & Austin. Many have done a fine job in the RAW GM, etc role but no one will ever compare to Mr. McMahon when it comes to being the "evil boss."

If Sting wrestles HHH at WM31 I think that they would have an excellent match that would be well paced an tell a clearly understandable story that would be easy to follow. Nonetheless, this matter will likely be over analyzed and worn out by the time the big event gets here. Much like the business is at times over thought it seems as if some fans are following suit and second guessing whatever is put on their wrestling plate.

Perhaps it's just me but it appears that many of today's fans aren't reacting to disqualification and/or count out finishes like they used to. Having no rules to break may be a part of that matter.

Seems as if WWE would simply leave all the non profane signs the fans bring to the shows as it would facilitate an aura of an actual "raw" TV show and to allow the fans to be creative and to better enjoy the experience.

Nice to see my pal Steve Austin getting so much promotional time for his great podcast on @PodcastOne on WWE programming. The idea to do an interview with McMahon after the Dec 1 RAW from Tulsa is strategic on multiple fronts. I know that I will be watching.

I've never been a huge fan of the anonymous, RAW GM but if it's going to return wouldn't it be better for JBL to read the heel emails than Michael Cole?

Enjoyed the vignette featuring Kofi Kingston, Big E, and Dr. Xavier Woods with the choir. I hope that all three jump all over this opportunity.

Nice to see WWE providing Dolph Ziggler a break and continued, positive, TV exposure. They fans have been patient with this matter for a long time but have loyal to DZ.

All of my podcast guests through the end of January are listed on the homepage of this website.

WWEShop.com should have JR's products back online at any time. They have been out of several items such as or Chipotle Ketchup, Jalapeno Honey Mustard & our BBQ Sauces due to business picking up. Their latest order has been delivered and I'd expect to see things back to normal any day. JR's products make for excellent holiday, stocking stuffers.

If you reside in the UK, Ireland or Europe, you can order JR's products from http://www.americansoda.co.uk and http://www.beyondtheropes.co.uk. Order early to avoid shipping issues that could occur.

Check out http://www.prowrestlingtees.com/jimross and take advantage of amazing savings during their 'Black Friday' sellabration. They stock most every size imaginable and ship EVERY WHERE.

Doing ample research and study for my play by play assignment on January 4 in the Tokyo Dome on pay per view. There's no reason that from a pure bell to bell standpoint that Wrestle Kingdom 9 shouldn't be one of the better PPV's of which I've ever been a part & that covers a lot of ground.

Great weekend of college football on tap and I plan on taking advantage of all of it that I can. Thanks to egos, TV money and a lack of communication the Oklahoma vs. Nebraska game that was always played Thanksgiving weekend is no longer.Good job big money, TV people. Hell, the Huskers aren't even in their old conference which is even more perplexing.

If I could only have one thing for Thanksgiving dinner it would be my late, Mom's cornbread dressing (stuffing) that my wife has mastered and perhaps even better than my Mama's.

The Q&A's here have been updated.

I invite you to follow me on Twitter @JRsBBQ.

BOOMER SOONER!
