I was reading an interview on the main site yesterday involving J.R. which I believe were excerpts from a full interview which can be seen on his own website. In typical Jim Ross fashion, he speaks candidly, while still respectfully, on a number of issues such as whether or not TNA is true competition for the WWE, on the likelihood of the Rock versus Cena ever happening, and on the Indy guys.
In the interview, he is very polite and respectful towards TNA, Bischoff, Flair, etc., while being very blunt in that he doesn't see them as competition whatsoever. Now I know this has been debated to death in many threads over the past several months especially, but I was just wondering what people thought of Ross's comments.
a) Is he just being a company yes-man, dismissing TNA and plugging WWE's dominance, or do you think he really feels that way (I believe the latter).
b) Is he right? As the head to head approaches later tonight, will WWE continue its dominance and continue with their status quo, oblivious to whatever TNA may be doing, or do they feel threatened and feel compelled to respond somehow.
I know this may redundant with other threads, jusst wanted to specifically discuss Ross's thoughts on things.
