JIM ROSS, JR. REPORT
October 13, 2000

It's been an incredible week in the WWF and Good Ol' J.R., Jr. is back with a lot of news and opinions from under the black resistol hat.

You gotta believe Rikishi has hell to pay in 9 days at No Mercy when Stone Cold Steve Austin gets his hands on him. After all, this man is proud of the fact he ran over Stone Cold and he doesn't regret it. In fact, he said he would do it again. How did he manage to keep this secret for over ten months? And why did he have to play the race card? Apparently, Rikishi has selected memory as Yokozuna was indeed a 2-time former World Wrestling Federation Champion, so his excuse of the WWF being about "The Great White Hope" is utterly ridiculous. The WWF will be returning to the very arena where Stone Cold was run down this Monday night when they rock The Palace in suburban Detroit.

Despite the fact that you had to have registration for the election in the mail by late Tuesday night, the WWF has found out that 130,000 people have SmackDown! their vote!

The rumors concerning Stone Cold not being in game shape is absurd. The Rattlesnake is in fact at his wrestling weight, however it will be take a while to shake off the ring rust. I guarantee you at No Mercy, Stone Cold will be ready to rock, take names, and kick ass and Rikishi better be ready for it. Expect No Mercy big boy!

A lot of people are asking me about the condition of the Undertaker. The American Badass is currently nursing a groin injury. This is not the same groin injury that hampered 'Taker in the past. The office expects 'Taker to return to the ring and continue the legend that is the Undertaker. Also, the rumors that 'Taker is out playing softball with Sid Eudy are NOT true. Folks, you can't believe everything you read on the Internet. In fact, most of it you can take with a grain of salt.

Can Good Ol' J.R., Jr. be asking for too much by saying he wants to see a little Light Heavyweight action?

I just received an email from a high ranking WWF official saying the SmackDown! your vote campaign has managed to register 150,000 new voters!

Eddie Guererro's actions this past week where disgusting and quite frankly made me hurl. This man had the gall to two face one of the most beautiful women in world--and a Playboy covergirl as well--in Chyna and decided to cheat on her to have a fling with a couple of cheap skanks. This Mexican jumping bean is like the cat meat inside a Taco Bell taco.

From where I sit if the Big Show drops approximately 80-100 lbs. he will be a much better asset to the WWF. At 375-400 lbs. myself and Good Ol' J.R. feel he can do cartwheels and shoot fire out of his ass.

Here's an update on Viscera who has been out for several months with a shoulder injury. It take big men quite a while to heal and this big man's recovery is going well as he has been visiting various IHOPs around the country.

Here's another update on the WWF's SmackDown! your vote campaign. It turns out over 200,000 new voters registered via WWFvote.com!

Billy Gunn is without a shadow of a doubt the greatest pure athlete in WWF history. He may be a little ring rust, but this superstar has the tools to get back on track in the WWF.

The X-Pac-Chris Jericho feud has a chance to produce many classic matches as both of these men are excellent talents. X-Pac really is a great hand.

Uncreative and ridiculous storylines that fans regurgitate should tell the bookers that it's time to either go in a different direction or fold up shop.

Al Snow is as crazy as a horny hamster. William Regal has his eye on Snow's European title and isn't pleased at all with the current champion. I have a feeling these two will meet up in the ring in the near future and tear down the house.

Los Conquistodors? Did they ever win a tag match?

After all was said and done it turns out over 500,000 new voters registered for this November's election via WWFvote.com! It's a shame neither of those two fuddy duddies accepted the SmackDown! Challenge. A Gore-Bush, Jr. debate with Jesse Ventura as the moderator would definitely draw interest, but these politicians are too high brow for us wrestling fans. Good lord.

It's been a strange Friday so far to say the least. As I was ready to take my morning walk I just happened to see two black cats making whoopee in my front yard. Then a mile down the road Good Ol' J.R., Jr. spots two black labs getting busy. If that wasn't crazy enough for you, I decided to walk under a ladder, run with scissors, spit in the wind, look a gifthorse in the mouth, and tug on Superman's cape. Nope, Good Ol' J.R., Jr. is not superstitious.

STONE COLD!!! STONE COLD!!! STONE COLD!!! WILL KICK RIKISHI'S ASS IN ONLY 9 DAYS AT NO MERCY!!!

Take care.

J.R., Jr.
