WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross posted his newest blog entry over the weekend, discussing the success of his Ross Report podcast, Brock Lesnar ending The Undertaker's Streak at WrestleMania 30, working on an announce team with Jesse "The Body" Ventura, WWE vs. UFC contract deals for TV rights and much more.

Jim Ross on the Ross Report Podcast:

"The Ross Report Podcast is consistently in the Top Ten of all iTunes Sports podcasts every week even though we only record and release one show weekly. We have no plans at this time to increase production to two shows weekly."

Ross goes onto to say that future guests will include Shawn Michaels in a likely two-part interview, Michelle Beadle of ESPN, Lance Storm, current TNA wrestler MVP, Sting, Eric Bischoff, Ted DiBiase, Tony Schiavone, Cowboy Bill Watts, Stan Hansen and others.

Jim Ross on Brock Lesnar ending THE STREAK:

"The Streak is dead. It isn't being resurrected. Now the key is how WWE addresses Lesnar's situation going forward and any future plans for Taker including when and where he goes into the WWE HOF. Those that are still in shock simply need to get over it and move forward. I did not like it either but I can see where the Streak ending can create unique opportunities on multiple, creative fronts."

I think it's time to move past what happened at WrestleMania 30 and look forward to how WWE might book Brock Lesnar now that he has more credibility than he ever has in the past. Also, Paul Heyman has had a field day bragging about being the advocate for THE ONE in 21 and 1, and those promos have been highly entertaining over the past few weeks:

Jim Ross on WWE vs. UFC:

"WWE should be so lucky as UFC has been with Fox when WWE signs their new broadcast rights deal in America of which I fully expect to be an enhanced deal with NBC/Universal which will see RAW/Smackdown stay where they currently are. I do think that USA Network and their affiliates can do more to help promote WWE. I'd like to see Smackdown moved to Tuesday and go live. Going live with Smackdown on Friday night isn't financially feasible or schedule friendly for WWE whatsoever."

I agree with Ross that it makes perfect sense for WWE and all of their TV rights to stay with NBC/Universal. It's just a matter of getting the deal done at this point.

Jim Ross on Working with Jesse Ventura:

"Jesse Ventura and I under performed IMO because of me. I was offended that he earned more than double for working part time for what I was getting paid for working full time. I now use his agent. Broadcasters within the pro wrestling business in general are largely underpaid unless they wear multiple hats which is unfortunate. It's a unique skill set that is hard to master."

JR adds to this point by saying he has "no desire" to return to weekly professional wrestling announcing on a full-time basis.

With the success of his live tour and his weekly podcast, I don't blame him in the least for not looking back after leaving WWE.
