JR's Blog: SlobberKnocker on 3rd Printing. More Book Signings, Ted DiBiase to Ross Report, @CMPunk

Posted: Oct 16th 2017 By: Jim Ross

Greetings everyone and thanks for stopping by our site. Remember that all of upcoming book signings and appearances are listed here including the needed links to facilitate your participation. I appreciate you folks.

Had a great time this weekend in the Dallas area including on Friday night at the best organized signing I've ever participated in at Books-A-Million in Grapevine, Texas. I signed 298 books and enjoyed meeting many friendly fans.

Then, the main event of the weekend was being on the Sooner Sideline in scorching heat in the Cotton Bowl to watch my OU Sooners defeat their arch rivals, the Texas Longhorns. It was an amazing game for sure and I'm proud of my Sooners for pulling it out when they gave up a 20-0 lead to the Steers who certainly did not quit or stop playing hard.

The 112th edition of the Red River Rivalry won't be soon(er) forgotten.

Excited to be having our next signing for SlobberKnocker next Sunday October 22 at the Barnes and Noble store in OKC starting at 2 pm until 4 pm. Love for you to drop by and say hello.

Monday night I will be recording this week's The Ross Report with @WWE HOFER Ted DiBiase to talk about his new film that's about to be released in a special theater promotion.

BTW...our Ross Report downloads have been at record levels the past few weeks which is a testament to our audience being supportive and loyal plus all the big time guests that have jumped on our show with me. I sincerely appreciate you all.

.@Amazon is doing a terrific job with our fan base allover the world shipping SlobberKnocker on all platforms including hardcover, audio and E Books. www.audiobooks.com and www.novelaudio.com also can quickly get you a copy of the audio version of SlobberKnocker.

I've been told that next week that SlobberKnocker will go into its third printing which I'm informed is remarkable for a wresting centric book after only being released less than two weeks. I really feel that wife Jan is smiling on all of us for the success of our story.

Headed to LA this week to voice over NJPW bouts for AXSTV. Remember that our work on AXSTV for NJPW airs Friday nights Josh Barnett and me.

Former OU American defensive tackle Tommie Harris told me that he is going to go through a WWE tryout in the future. I think that it may be more for the marketing experience than a tryout would normally produce as Tommie supports many charities and this could be in conjunction with one of them. Tommie played for OU and the Chicago Bears, among others, at approximately 300 pounds and he's now 235. Tommie is now 34 and was a multiple time All America and then played in 3 NFL pro bowls.

I'm happy @CMPunk is going to fight again because that's what he loves to do and we all should have the courage to follow our own dreams no matter if others think we're nuts. Trust me, I know of what I speak on this one.

Good luck to the men and women of ROH on their iPPV Sunday night from Chicago on @FITE App. Looks like a super card.

Excited to hit Chicago in a week or so and will be signing SlobberKnocker at the Barnes and Noble store in Skokie on Tuesday evening Oct 24. Then on Wednesday evening Oct 25 I will be at the NEW, Pro Wresting Tees store from 6 pm-8 PM. Two cool days in Chicagoland.

Business Has Picked up for us at www.wweshop.com for all our JR's delicious products for your kitchen and grill. My Mama would be very happy.

Sure appreciate you guys for stopping by our site today. The Q&A's elsewhere here are updated. Have a great day and always count your blessings. Remember that our tomorrow's aren't guaranteed.

Boomer Sooner!

J.R. @JRsBBQ
