JR Blog: Cena vs. Lesnar, Undertaker’s Future, Rock’s Title Plans

16

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with another blog, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights of what JR wrote about:

Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena at Extreme Rules:

“Getting tons of folks asking for predictions for the upcoming Lesnar vs. Cena bout at Extreme Rules in Chicago on PPV. The only thing that I know for sure is that the live audience in Chicago will be restaurant quality. Is Cena ‘due’ after losing to Rock at WM28 or will Lesnar lose his first WWE bout in years? It makes for some compelling, episodic TV, in my opinion, but one has to consider Lesnar’s likely ‘ring rust’ when analyzing this main event and making educated guesses.

“Cena vs. Lesnar is what a main event should be, too close to easily call a winner.”

The Rock’s Desire To Become WWE Champion Again

“Rock says he wants to be WWE Champion again. Time will tell if he can pull that one off but if that were to occur it would likely be following some intriguing, episodic TV leading into the big match. I think that it’s going to be a compelling year regarding the WWE Title.”

Whether The Undertaker Has Retired Or Not:

“I might be naive and I know that I’m out of the loop, which, BTW, isn’t a gripe, but IF Undertaker was going to retire, don’t you think that WWE would make a HUGE deal of it? Can you think of another wrestler’s retirement that would be as impactful as the Undertaker’s at this point in time? So….I am still of the mindset that Undertaker will return to the ring at the appropriate time.”

Scott Hall’s Ex-Wife Believes He Choked His Girlfriend

10

Scott Hall’s ex-wife Diana Hall said that she wasn’t surprised by his arrest on charges of choking his girlfriend.

During an interview with the Charleston Post & Courier, Dana Hall says that she believes the charges and that the girlfriend’s attorney’s claim of a “peaceful and amicable” relationship is a lie.

“This relationship is not peaceful and amicable, but sick, unhealthy, disturbing, disgusting, unstable, violent and enabling, just to name a few.”

“I completely believe he did this to her, as he has tried to do it to me in the past and to others. It’s deplorable… It is a sick/codependent/abusive relationship of major proportions that needs to be seriously addressed, not schmoozed over so that the sickness can continue.”

Scott Hall denies the charges.

Matt Morgan’s TNA Contract Expiring This Year, WWE Return?

31

Promoting his Steel Cage Match against Crimson tonight at TNA Lockdown, Matt Morgan revealed in an interview with Pro Wrestling Torch Livecast on Friday that his contract with TNA Wrestling expires in October and he would consider returning to WWE. Though he considers himself loyal to TNA, he’s a businessman first and would not rule out joining Vince McMahon’s organization.

“To say I wouldn’t go back would be dumb on my part and it would be a lie,” Morgan said. “But at the same time, I really am – I know people don’t like this answer who are pro-WWE and not so pro-TNA – but that’s the truth, I am loyal to those who are loyal to me. The minute, the day TNA stops being as loyal to me as I feel I am being to them, that’s a different discussion all to itself and I definitely would weigh my options a lot differently if and when that day ever came.”

Morgan adds that he’s “happy for the most part” with how TNA has been treated him since joining the organization in 2007.

“The Blueprint” also discusses the circumstances behind his departure from WWE in 2005, transitioning from bodyguard to pay-per-view headliner, working with Brock Lesnar and more. The interview is available here.

Brooke Hogan Appearing At Lockdown, Why She Isn’t In TNA

41

Hulk Hogan’s daughter Brooke said on Twitter that she will be on hand for tonight’s TNA Lockdown pay-per-view event in Nashville, Tennessee. Since her father’s arrival to TNA Wrestling over two years ago, it’s been speculated that she would eventually assume an on-camera role. When asked Saturday whether she has plans to join the Knockouts division, she remarked, “Knockout division? I’m about 2 feet taller than all em. It just wouldn’t be fair lol.”

Hogan told British newspaper The Sun that WWE has tried several times to get her to follow in her father footsteps and become a wrestler.

“The WWE have told me that if I ever want to become a wrestler all I need to do is walk through the door and they’ll give me a job straight away,” Hogan said three years ago. “They are always like, ‘Hey Brooke when are you gonna put on some spandex and get in the ring?’”

So what’s stopping her from becoming a wrestler?

“It’s just not my interest,” Hogan said then. “I’m more of a girly girl.”

Meanwhile, Robbie E warned Hogan to not interfere in his Television Championship Match against Devon tonight like at Victory Road when she took away a steel chair he attempted to use. He then blamed her for the loss over Twitter as he felt she was hitting on him during the match.

“Don’t get involved in my match again hamster or I’ll have @IMPACTWRESTLING security get you ejected bro!” E wrote.

She responded, “listen peanut, cool your jets. You’re not my type.”

Bischoff made similar comments two years ago during an interview with Monday Night Mayhem shortly after Hart railed the TNA Wrestling executive producer and Hulk Hogan via Twitter: “I feel sad for Bret, because Bret is one of those people, and there are a lot of them, he’s the type of person that needs someone to hate in order to feel significant himself.”

— Kazarian will sport an all-new look when he competes in tonight’s Lethal Lockdown match at TNA Lockdown. The TNA veteran cut off his trademark long hair as he appeared at Saturday’s Lockdown Fanfest with a shaved head.

— TNA X Division Champion Austin Aries turns 34 years old today. He will celebrate his birthday by competing in Lethal Lockdown tonight at TNA Lockdown.

Will Undertaker Wrestle For WWE Again?, Booker T Filming Series

25

— Last week at WrestleMania XXVIII, The Undertaker and Triple H met inside Hell in a Cell in a bout that was branded as “the end of an era.” The latest issue of WWE Magazine, which features The Undertaker on the cover, plays up the “the end of an era” storyline as they ask “Will The Deadman Rise Again?”

Despite speculation that The Undertaker’s match last week may have been his last, many WWE employees now believe he is able to compete in a few more matches and will almost certainly work WrestleMania XXIX. This belief is based on The Undertaker appearing less injured following his WrestleMania outing compared to the prior year’s.

— Booker T is filming his upcoming Reality of Wrestling web series Saturday in Houston, Texas, according his Twitter account. The show will premiere on May 1 on YouTube.

— WWE will hold a live event at the Indoor Stadium in Zurich, Switzerland on November 8, 2012.

Our Lady Peace Discuss Retiring Chris Benoit’s Theme Song

26

Jon Chattman of The Huffington Post conducted an interview with Canadian alternative rock band Our Lady Peace where they discuss how they’ve had to retire Chris Benoit’s WWE theme song “Whatever” altogether because of the incomprehensible tragedy that took place five years ago.

Over a three-day period ending on June 24, 2007, Benoit killed his wife Nancy and strangled his seven-year-old son Daniel before committing suicide via hanging. Chattman, a music blogger, asks band frontman Raine Maida and guitarist Steve Mazur if they still play “Whatever” following the event.

“I couldn’t imagine singing that to be honest, it’s so tied into him and the tragedy that happened, I just couldn’t get it out of my head,” says Mazur.

Maida adds they’ve removed the song from their catalog. Chattman thinks it “sucks” they no longer play it since it’s such a “kickass” song.

Scott Steiner Takes Aim At Garett Bischoff In Latest Twitter Rant

30

Following a series of messages on Twitter blasting TNA Wrestling’s upper hierarchy, Scott Steiner has set his sights on Eric Bischoff’s son Garett. “Big Poppa Pump” says Garett hasn’t earned the right to appear on television and that his high-profile position in TNA is a disservice to the professional wrestling industry. He wrote Friday evening:

Knockout Tag Title Match At Lockdown?, Bischoff Responds

23

— Based on comments made online and events from Thursday’s Impact Wrestling, it would appear that Eric Young and ODB will be defending the TNA Knockout Tag Team Championship against Sarita and Rosita Sunday night at TNA Lockdown.

Young and ODB’s Steel Cage Wedding on Thursday’s show was interrupted by Sarita and Rosita, who performed a striptease in a failed attempt to get Young to bail on his bride. ODB threatened Rosita over this and subsequent taunts on Twitter, writing: “really bitch,u look like a lil girl waitin to hit puberty,c your skinny ass at lockdown.” Sarita then wrote on Facebook that she and Rosita want their belts back. The title match could occur as early as Sunday night at Lockdown as Sarita and Rosita are scheduled for the show.

— Scott Steiner, who parted ways with TNA Wrestling two weeks ago, has continuously railed against Garett Bischoff in his Twitter rants against TNA Wrestling’s upper hierarchy. “Big Poppa Pump” feels that Garett’s cushy spot in the organization is brought on by nepotism rather than talent. In an apparent response to Steiner’s criticism, Garett wrote Thursday on Facebook:

“Negative people will only try to drag you down to there negative level because they do not know how to rise up to your level! So wake up every day, put boots to ass, and achive whatever goals you have set out to achive! Aond dont let ANYONE stand in your way!”
