Jim Ross has posted on his JRsBarBq.com. Here are a few highlights:

JR voicing for the NEW Smackdown vs. Raw video game : Plus, I have to squeeze in two days of voice over work for THQ’s next Smackdown vs. Raw video game before the end of January. Now you know why I don’t own a lawn mower or a weed eater. At least that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Now for some ‘rasslin, random thoughts.

JR says Starrcade DVD is an “MUST SEE” for the old school of wrestling fan: Got home Friday night and continued to check out the Starrcade DVD recently released and I hate to sound like a hype machine but for any old school fan or any die hard who is still actively following wrestling, this DVD is a “must see.” I especially loved some of the bouts that I had essentially forgotten about and I listened intently to the commentary and was amazed at how much it had changed over the years. Just one guy’s opinion but some aspects of the old school commentary was better than today’s while there is no doubt that today’s TV product is technically much better.

JR wished the best for Kevin Nash on his surgery: My old friend Kevin Nash recently had his 27th surgery which is astonishing. I wish him a speedy recovery. Kevin is one of the wittiest and most intelligent guys in the business and parlayed being a former hoopster at Tennessee and a bouncer at the Cheetah Club in Atlanta to fame and fortune in the squared circle. Kevin was on the same high school All State basketball team in Michigan as Magic Johnson back in the day. I always think of Kevin when we visit Detroit which is his hometown.

JR says WWE missed an “Few Good Managers”: If you haven’t done so, I encourage you to take a peek at WWE.com’s list of Top 25 Wrestling Managers of all time. Any list is subjective and this one isn’t an exception. Rating the late Gary Hart as the 24th best manager of all time is somewhat absurd as is completely neglecting Jim Cornette and Paul Heyman.
