I can confirm that Jim Ross will be announcing the New Japan Pro Wrestling pay-per-view that is taking place on January 4th, 2015.

Jeff Jarrett will be helping produce this PPV and NJPW will be working with Jarrett's new company Global Force Wrestling.

GFW is distributing the PPV in the US, and JR will be doing the play-by-play for them.

The Young Bucks are also confirmed to be on this PPV. I have been told that whenever GFW runs shows, the Bucks will be a main staple on those shows.

Jeff Jarrett met with ROH officials recently to discuss an agreement on how to use talent such as the Bucks. So it is safe to say we will be seeing ROH talent involved in GFW.

Damn that's good. Striker still in talks about doing the colour? Wouldn't mind him since I can't think of anyone else off the top of my head to do it.

I was going to give GWF the benefit of the doubt, but if Double J is planning on making the Young Bucks a big part of it....Jeff Jarret, you can go straight to hell. I just put you over, too. Piece of shit.

There are no highlights. It's "Don't strive, don't try, with knowledge comes worry so don't gain knowledge" "Just go with the flow, don't worry, don't get excited, don't try to better yourself, don't have passion about anything" bullshit said with things that would work well as Jaden Smith tweets. In fact, it is possible that Jaden Smith is Laozi and Zhuangzi, if they ever existed in the first place.

Stealing Boots' thunder, but it seems Revolution Pro is the latest indy to get their digital shit together (one of the last one's I'd have expected to)

Their show from last Saturday is now up for HD streaming on Vimeo, for to buy, which includes a DRM free download. They're also offering a DVD upgrade for an extra £5. This is the way Progress should be going I think...

Anyway, here's the card. You can watch me by the ramp marking out for Too Cool.

A big book of "essential" Buddhist sutras. After that I'm hoping to get the Satanic Bible and then getting away from religion and philosophy because it all is pretty stupid and boils down to just a different way to keep people under control. Eventually I'll get to the Bible, but I had enough of that stupid shit in the Koran to jump right back into an even longer version.

He was doing pretty decent for a while. Take account he had Todd Grisham beside him too. He kept making a fool of King's commentary so they made him hold back and basically were embarrassing him week after week. Total waste. Even Booker T was better than these three goons.

I'll probably be proven wrong but I doubt he puts that belt on himself. The TNA thing was part narcissism, part they felt they needed the belt on a guy who was from WWE/WCW and had guys with no contracts or intent on staying in TNA. When Christian came in he dropped out of the title scene and his last few runs were mostly putting people over. He also has to know what putting the belt on himself would do for the company's image.

Company Man Cena. I lost it at the hair cut comment.

Variety has an in-depth look at John Cena expanding into Hollywood...

The article noted that Cena is a company man to the core as they asked him to take off his trademark WWE cap but he declined and said, "They don't pay me to promote my hair cut." Cena also commented on not changing his image and turning heel:

"When you do that, everything you said, everything you stand for gets erased. It's a poor business decision."

Ehh, in TNA it made sense for him to be the guy (at least for a while there). Once other people got established, he got out of there for the most part.

Also woohoo at JR calling WrestleKingdom

"even Booker T" What the fuck are you trying to say? Booker is the best color guy since Dusty retired from the booth.

No. I had weird as shit dreams before. All these have really done are help me understand why the Middle East is the way it is, and why China is the way it is.

"double main event"

whatever the fuck that means

hunter hearst helmsley and his clique of ballerinas too insecure to even recognize that they aren't in the main event at a ppv taking place in 2014? they have to say there are two main events and they are in one of them?

Meltzer said that Zayn failed two weeks ago trying to carry him.

If I have a choice, I'll go with Japanese commentary. Not interested in JR stumbling through "those little chinamen" bullshit.

Fuck you JR

Nevermind. :(



Read online today where "sources say" that I'm broadcasting the New Japan PPV on January 4 from Tokyo. Let me make this perfectly clear. I have no deal. I have not personally spoken to Jeff Jarrett since he left WWE with me holding the bag on a blotched contract matter that I should have handled batter. Lesson learned for me. Jeff and I agreed to have him on the Ross Report Podcast that will drop on December 16 via text messages.

So, here's the bottom line, if we do work out something and it's going to take a helluva deal for me to miss my birthday, a weekend in Vegas with my wife and the UFC on January 3 to see @RondaRousey fight to travel to Tokyo to do pro wrestling with a new partner, a new crew and a new talent roster. IF we are able to make a deal, then the publicity seeking "source" can brag that he was right all along.

I'm not looking to do any pro wrestling but I'm also a businessman and if the offer is one that I can't realistically turn down then we will consider it and if we commit I will be "all in" and will travel to Tokyo to do play by play of a pro wrestling match like it was my last one. I did not stop doing pro wrestling commentary because I did not like it. It wasn't my call but it will take a special arrangement for me to want to stick my toe back into that water again. Time will tell but I can swear to everyone that I have no deal as I type this on Thursday October 23 and have ZERO meetings set up to discuss such.

Now...watch out the IWC dissects this info and comes up with their own conclusions after doing a through forensics evaluation of what I have written.

Read what ever you want into this update but I can assure you that every word that I said is true and I'm not using semantics to jack people around.
