“Good Ol’ JR”

WWE Hall of Famer, Jim Ross, is back after being hospitalized last week for stroke-like symptoms and seems to be recovering well. The 62-year-old updated his blog on his official website, Jrsbarbq.com to comment about Daniel Bryan, Kurt angle and more.

Here are is what good old JR had to say.

On his thoughts about Daniel Bryan being stripped off the WWE World Heavyweight Title

“Feel bad about Daniel Bryan's injury that has necessitated him being stripped of the WWE World Title. The past couple of months has been the best and the worst of times for arguably the best, pure wrestler in the world. It certainly sets up the opportunity for WWE to craft an amazing comeback story for DB and the opportunity for him to perform all phases of his comeback superbly which could get Bryan more over than he ever was. I'm curious to see how this potentially amazing story will be told and executed.”

On Ric Flair returning to the WWE

“Read online where Ric Flair got cleared by WWE medical personnel to return to the road but is that a great idea? Can Ric add to TV presentations? Absolutely, does a 65 year old man need to be on the road full time? No. Flair is an iconic figure who needs, to not be over utilized and should remain special. I'm all for Flair appearing on TV in the right role and at selected live events, if his appearance is made to be a major, promotional item but putting Ric back on the road full time like one of the boys isn't wise. Having said all of this, I will admit that I don't know what WWE has planned for Ric, as it relates to his booking schedule and I do applaud WWE for having Ric medically checked from bumper to bumper before doing whatever it is that WWE has planned.”

On his interview with former WWE Superstar Kurt Angle

"Tuesday night I interviewed Kurt Angle and we went deep into his drug and alcohol addiction, the fact that Kurt has been 11 months clean and sober and his desire to sign one last contract to finish out an amazing, Hall of Fame career. Plus, we talked in depth about the infamous 'shoot' amateur workout that Kurt had with Brock Lesnar in South Dakota back in the day before a WWE TV taping that damn near got me fired…again. Other topics discussed were Chris Benoit, Shane McMahon, Steve Austin, Vince McMahon, CM Punk, The Undertaker, training with Dory Funk, Jr. and Tom Prichard, WM19, Impact Wrestling's up's and downs and so much more."
