Jim Ross Blog: Ronda Rousey Appearing For WWE, Projects With Austin, Emma's Arrest, More

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with a new blog on jrsbarbq.com. As always, you can purchase JR's BBQ products on WWEshop.com. Here are some highlights from this entry:

- This Tuesday part one of my two part interview with Kurt Angle drops at podcastone.com at 9 pm eastern time which I'm thinking will get many folks talking. This interview gets a little 'stiff' at times. If you're looking for BS and lame discussion this won't be the show for you.

- Yes, I'd love to see Ronda Rousey make an appearance at WM31 even though I know it's a long shot at very best. Ronda could be in someone's corner, a ref, or even compete with a female talent like Natalya or AJ Lee, for example, but please no intergender matches which anyone with a modicum of common sense can't and won't take seriously. Rousey is the hottest star today in UFC and is going to make a big splash in the film business sooner than later with multiple films in the can.

- WWE has postponed the taping of Tough Enough, according to Internet reports, until October from July. This had an impact on some projects that Steve Austin and I were going to do together which is unfortunate. Nonetheless we will circle our wagons and release more info when it's timely.

- Does any one else feel that this unfortunate incident with Emma has been blown somewhat out of proportion? Not condoning it but it's not exactly like she committed a felony. Should she be punished? Of course, but is it a headline making story on the IWC? Not in my opinion. Emma has received a valuable second chance that she should do all that she can to make the most of.

Ross also talks about authority figure roles, Renee Young, UFC 175 and more in this entry.
