3. Jim Ross Responds To Buff Bagwell’s Recent Comments, Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle This Sunday
Former WCW Superstar Buff Bagwell recently noted in an interview that WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross released him from his WWE contract back in the day. Below is what JR had to say about this:
“Getting inquiries about a recent Mark Bagwell interview about his less than positive experience in WWE and regarding me releasing him from his WWE contract in Atlanta before a broadcast. I had a job that was challenging especially when it concerned distributing less than positive news. I had to be the ‘bad cop’ in this matter and was simply following orders and doing my job. I did not and do not today hold any negative feelings toward Mark. I learned long ago that it wasn’t healthy for me to bring negative experiences forward. I wish Mark all the best and I am sincere in that statement.”
JR also talked about announcing the upcoming URshow.tv PPV event on Sunday featuring pro wrestling, boxing and MMA matches:
“Headed to Phoenix soon to broadcast this Sunday’s PPV on URshow.tv from the Celebrity Theater in Phoenix that airs at 9 pm ET/ 6 pm pacific. Excited to call pro wrestling, MMA, Grappling & pro boxing all in one, unpredictable night. Visit www.URshow.tv for all the card info and to order the PPV for only &11.99 plus it’s available on the FITE TV App.
Rey Mysterio vs Kurt Angle is going to be a 2X3 fall pro wrestling bout that should be extraordinary. Chael Sonnen vs UK’s Michael Bisping will be special as well and calling a Roy Jones, JR fight is exciting for me, too. I’m broadcasting with Sean Wheelock & Rampage Jackson. I hope that you’ll join us Sunday night on PPV or in person at the Celebrity Theater.”
