Jim Ross Is Happy For Linda McMahon Being Named to Trump Administration

– Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry online. Some highlights are below:

On Lita’s WWE departure: “After I was told that Lita and The King were both still with WWE, Lita DM’ed me on Twitter to tell me that she was no longer with the company. I don’t know if she opted out of her arrangement with WWE or if they decided to go in another direction. In any event, change is in the air as it relates to the expensive production of the RAW and SDLIVE pre and post game shows.”

On John Cena working a part-time schedule with WWE: “It seems that John Cena is traveling much the same road that Dwayne Johnson has taken in his post WWE life which I applaud. Just like @TheRock, @JohnCena is and always will be a WWE guy who may never wrestle a full time schedule again, likely not IMO, but will always be loyal to the company that helped launch his amazing career. I know of no wrestler with reasonable sanity that is that would not trade the bumping and the road schedule, etc for the life of a TV or movie personality. Would you? I didn’t think so.”

On Linda McMahon being named head of the Small Business Administration: “Excited for Linda McMahon for being named head of the Small Business Administration by President elect Donald Trump. While some took this appointment as a reason to again bombard the topic on social media with negativity, I can only say that in my 21+ years in WWE that Linda was always professional, accommodating and an effective leader with the company. I never had a bad experience with her whatsoever. I shared that experience and caught some grief over it from those less informed. This wasn’t an experience that I read about online or on some wrestling website but instead a personal experience that actually occurred to me and my family. (Plus, Linda McMahon has a nice, basketball jump shot.) ”

On his upcoming show in San Antonio during Royal Rumble weekend: “Tickets for our RINGSIDE with JIm Ross Sho in San Antonio on Sunday afternoon January 29 just before the @WWE Royal Rumble are on sale at rivercitycomedyclub.com. We will be at the Improv at River Center which is near the Alamo Dome which will host the Rumble.”
