JR's Blog: Sunday Blog..JR to NJPW??..Cena Fox Sports Story..Sting Part 2 Drops Tues Night..JR to Talk to Big Cowboy Tues..Autobiography Work Intensifies..Order JR's Online

Posted: Aug 4th 2014 By: Jim Ross

Happy Sunday to all and I hope it's an enjoyable one....if not, make it so...it's your choice...now, let's grill...

Headed to the gym where my trainer says it's time to raise the bar. Uh oh. Best decision I've made lately was to hire a trainer.

For the record, I am not entertaining any thoughts of going to do some work for New Japan Pro Wrestling on their ippv broadcasts. I merely did some fantasy booking on a recent Ross Report podcast as I do each week and mentioned that I thought it would be fun to do a one off show for NJPW with @CMPunk. There has been zero conversation regarding this concept nor do I expect any.

I am not looking to get back into the pro wrestling business at this time specifically as it relates to working for a company on a full or part time basis. In other words, I'm not looking for pro wrestling work. It's very likely that I've called my last match which isn't the end of the world.

We will resume our RINGSIDE w/ Jim Ross shows in January if all goes according to plans.

I will spend 4 days sequestered in a Norman hotel room this week doing serious work on my autobiography that I hope to finish in time to be released in 2015. This will be the first of multiple 4-5 day sessions with my writing partner Scott Williams.

This Tuesday part 2 of my conversation with Sting drops on podcastone.com and iTunes at 9 pm central time. Subscribe for FREE and you won't miss a show.

Getting lots of fan feedback on the Is John Cena polarizing question that will eventually be a featured piece on FoxSports.com prior to Summer Slam.

This Tuesday night I'm talking with Cowboy Bill Watts for a future Ross Report podcast which should be a dandy. The Big Cowboy won't hold any thing back and has strong opinions on the pro wrestling business.

Going to try and watch the Paul Heyman DVD today and then review it on Monday if all goes according to the plan. The much anticipated DVD is going on sale this Tuesday. Because of the WWE Network is the DVD business in jeopardy? Some feel it is but I'm not totally sure of that. Obviously time will tell.

I'd like to see WWE have a major holiday gift giving promotion surrounded by their Network. They'd make great gifts for a wrestling fans of any generation.

Remember that you can get JR's products online at wweshop.com, americansoda.co.uk and beyondtheropes.co.uk. Thanks for supporting us. The UK has been out of products for WAY too long and a shipment is in route there now. Hopefully our partners there will not allow this to occur again. It's a nice problem to have.

Anderson Silva vs. Nick Diaz has stand up Slobber Knocker written all over it. There will be blood and it won't go five.

Enjoy your day and I will be addressing Ask JR later today. Leave questions there before you leave if you'd like.

Boomer Sooner!

J.R. @JRsBBQ
