Jim Ross Blog: Hogan’s WWE Return, DDP Doesn’t Land ABC Deal, VIP Tickets for One Man Show, WWE Network & More

February 22, 2014

A new Jim Ross blog has been posted over at JRsBarBQ.com, and below are some highlights:

The VIP tickets for next Saturday March 1 RINGSIDE: An Evening with Jim Ross are sold out for the 8 pm show and there are only about a dozen left for the early show at the Gramercy Theater. Tickets are still available nonetheless for both shows at ticketmaster.com. Hope to see you in NYC on Saturday March 1.

Did an interview for the online version of Fortune Magazine Friday talking about the WWE Network. It will be available soon I'm told and I will tweet it out from @JRsBBQ.

Great PR Friday night for DDP on ABC's Shark Tank. No deal made but a helluva segment on prime time, national TV for the hardworking Diamond Dallas Page…if that is his real name. DDP Yoga is magic. DDP will be guesting soon on the Ross Report Podcast as will Jake Roberts.

As I wrote in this space many, many weeks ago, it's a smart move by WWE to come to an arrangement with @HulkHogan for WM30 and beyond, I assume. I'm unaware of any details but I see Hulk as a great PR vehicle for the WWE Network and to appear a selected events. I do not see Hogan needing to wrestle to add value to WWE efforts.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
