Jim Ross:

"Batista's promo made me feel as if the Animal is losing his patience re: the World Title picture."

"Stephanie McMahon will be a significant upgrade over former GM Mike Adamle. Good move for Raw."

"John Cena coming through the crowd and genuinely interacting with them worked. A more aggressive, more physical Cena should help John in the long haul especially with young male fans.

Paul Heyman on new Jeff Hardy angle

Paul Heyman has posted another blog over on the UK Sun's website. This time he reacts to WWE's recent Jeff Hardy storyline that took place the morning of Survivor Series. Heyman writes, "Was it that WWE has blurred the line on its own in-house website, which is where news like Eddie Guerrero's death or the Chris Benoit family tragedy has been first broken? Was it the eerie feeling some people had on the morning of a big show, hearing about a top star being found unconscious in a hotel, invoking memories of Eddie and even Brian Pillman?"

Bret Hart Comments On Screw Job And Ric Flair's Wrestling Style

The Montreal Screwjob:"I think that’s what Vince (McMahon) was looking for. That’s all anybody ever does. Everyone is so job scared. But for me it was different. I grew up with wrestling, like Vince did. It was my whole life, and my whole family had given so much or the industry. And I thought about how much it would hurt my father at home and my kids were watching. I thought what I did and how I handled things was a defining moment for me and my character – not my wrestling character, but my own character as a human being. I always thought it was the best thing I ever did."

Working With Ric Flair: "People always talk about who the best wrestlers are. I actually go to maybe too much of an explanation about someone like Ric Flair for example. They rave about Ric Flair about being this great, great wrestler. And he was a great wrestler in many ways. But, in a lot of ways, like working with him in the ring, he was not so great. And for someone to contest that with me or argue with me that I don’t know what I’m talking about, things like that drive me crazy. Because it’s not true. They don’t know what they’re talking about. I know. I’ve worked with some of the greatest wrestlers of all time."
