The heart of the matter

Speaking on his Ross Report, JR had high praise for the confrontation between the Showstopper and the Deadman

"They stole the show. They’re so far ahead in making an emotional attachment than some of their peers, might I say most of their peers on their team, it’s not even funny. These guys are what you would say is over. They’re really over."

Responding to reports that Shawn is expected to come out of retirement, for a match against the Phenom, Ross commented on fans being critical of the pair for not being 'in their prime'.

"Of course they’re not in their prime physically. Mentally, I suggest to you, they’re probably the best they’ve ever been mentally to tell a story, to bring you in, to captivate you, to capture your attention.
"It’s done psychologically more often than not. I just think that they can give us a great match if and when it’s going to happen."
