Jim Ross had a new blog and here are some highlights

on Wrestle Kingdom 10
Congrats to all involved wth Wrestle Kingdom 10 that took place in the Tokyo Dome on January 4. Two or three, incredible, match of the year level bouts. Happy that Kevin Kelly and Matt Striker called the show. The NJPW brand is arguably the best overall in ring product within the genre these days. Happy that we could introduce so many fans to the brand last year while promoting the PPV of Wrestle Kingdom 9.

on Mauro Ranallo
Mauro Ranallo starts as the new voice of WWE Smackdown this Thursday night when the show moves to the USA Network. I’m happy for Mauro who is an excellent hire by WWE.

on TNA Impact Wrestling debuts on Pop TV
TNA Impact Wrestling debuts on Pop TV this Tuesday night January 5. Curious to see what changes TNA institutes and how they are going to rebrand their company. Only one chance to relaunch with a first impression that is impactful, no pun intended. Hopefully, they will play to their strength which is their bell to bell product and not over scripted, bad acting. Let the horses run!
