Jim Ross Blog: Thoughts On Ken Anderson’s TNA Release, Calling Angle vs Mysterio, His WrestleMania Status, WM Ticket Sales

March 11, 2016

A new Jim Ross blog has been posted over at JRsBarBQ.com and below are some highlights. As a reminder, you can purchase tickets for JR’s “RINGSIDE” shows during WrestleMania weekend via Ticketmaster.com.

“Saw where Wrestlemania has 84,000 tickets sold. That’s an impressive number. Still think that they do north of 100,000 in the stadium as I’ve said for months. WWE has extended an appreciated invite to attend many WWE events along with my wife.”

“For those speculating, I am not booked for WWE in Texas nor have I ever expected to be of which I’m perfectly fine. Just clearing that up.”

“Excited to be doing the play by play for the Sunday March 20 PPV in Phoenix at the Celebrity Theater. Check it out at www.URshow.tv Angle vs Rey, Sonnen vs Bisping Grappling Match, Roy Jones, Jr boxing, and Dan Severn vs Tank Abbott in a MMA fight plus more . Never have I been involved in such an unorthodox, unpredictable event! It’s got to be seen to be believed.”

“Sad to hear the less than positive news re: Ken “Mr Kennedy” Anderson and the alleged terms of his release. Ken has talent & I hope that he gets his life back on track.”
