WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently posted a new blog where he discusses the rumors that he’s interested in an announcer position with the Pittsburgh Pirates MLB team. Ross said:
Ross wrote, “Who would have thought that me answering a simple, harmless Tweet from a fan about the vacant Pittsburgh Pirate baseball broadcasting gig would have created such a stir. Being a life long broadcaster and baseball fan, among many sports, I simply said I’d relocate to Pittsburgh, my wife’s hometown, to be able to broadcast baseball in the major leagues specially in Pittsburgh. Obviously, I have had zero interaction with the Pirates organization nor do I expect any. I do appreciate the heartwarming support that I’ve received via Twitter @JRsBBQ regarding this matter and I respect the opinion of the naysayers who have made it clear that they do not want a ‘pro wrestling guy’ touching their baseball broadcasts. That take is somewhat narrow minded but I certainly understand where they are coming from whether I agree or not. I’ve been battling that stereotype for years.”
Jeff Jarrett noted via Twitter today that he had some recent talks with German promotion “wXw”. It appears that GFW and wXw will be working together in the future as the Global Force Wrestling website has been updated and is advertising both Karen and Jeff Jarrett for an upcoming wXw event.
