A new Jim Ross Q&A has been posted over at JRsBarBQ.com and below are some highlights:
Thoughts on long title reigns:
“I think that long runs as a champion is more impressive than winning and losing a title multiple times. It seems to me that it’s more challenging to hold a title over a long haul than to hold it a few weeks/months at a time before winning and losing it over and over again.”
Favorite wrestling swag he has acquired through the years:
“Stone Cold’s boots that he won his first WWE Title in are right up there. Plus, Wrestlemania worn attire by Undertaker, HBK and HHH…John Cena’s title belt and game worn shoes, a Rock shirt he wore on TV, and a pair of red, patent leather boots signed and worn by Ric Flair would all be on the list.”
On WWE overexposing talents:
“Short answer to a long question….overexposing talents in today’s marketplace isn’t a positive and Lesnar has a business arrangement that guarantees him that he can’t be overexposed. If more talents could be utilized along the same manner those talents would also be perceived as being ‘special.’ “
Thoughts on Angle vs Shamrock:
“It’s intriguing. I doubt that the two will ever have a true, MMA contest but stranger things have happened and likely for less money. I’d love to call that one if it did go down.”
Does the Undertaker attend the WWE Hall of Fame ceremonies?:
“Taker does not sit in the crowd at the WWE HOF inductions but he usually is there backstage or in the TV truck at times.”
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
