WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has posted his latestblog online. You can check out some highlights below:
On Bobby Lashley’s win at Friday’s Bellator 162 event:
“Congrats to Bobby Lashley on another impressive win Friday night in Memphis on Spike TV’s broadcast of Bellator MMA. I see potential, big money in a Lashley vs Lesnar bout some day in a WWE ring. It’s organic, logical and easy to promote and the training vignettes would be stellar. Lashley’s tenure in TNA, along with his peers there, has to be in some jeopardy based on all the legal issues that are billowing out of the Nashville company that appears to be on the verge of bankruptcy or so we are told.”
On rumors of AJ Styles facing Shawn Michaels at the 2017 Royal Rumble PPV:
“The odds of Shawn Michaels wrestling at the Royal Rumble vs AJ Styles is a definite long shot as HBK has stressed to me on multiple occasions including the Ross Report podcast that he’s done with in ring activities in the wrestling biz. However, Shawn is a ‘company man’ and if WWE really needed a main event that could move a large amount of tickets in San Antonio at the Alamo Dome, I think that HBK would consider the company’s request. Without question, a Michaels vs Styles match in San Antonio at the Royal Rumble would be coveted by all involved if it were to occur. I’d realistically put the odds of this main event happening at less than 50-50 but I’d love to be wrong on this one.”
