JR Talks Jeff Hardy/WWE, Why WWE and “The View” and More

Here are a few snippets from Jim Ross updated blog:

-There are lots of emails you can read in the Q&A Section regarding rumors of Jeff Hardy’s WWE contract status. I do not know the details of this matter and if I did I would not divulge them. However, any wrestler should have the opportunity to step away and take a hiatus when the time and circumstances dictate such. I am not saying this is what Jeff is or isn’t going to do but perhaps, in hindsight, more wrestlers should consider such during their careers. Jeff is a star and is doing great on Smackdown. Jeff is in the main event at Judgment Day. Jeff is earning a great living. But Jeff is Jeff, and I mean that respectfully, so any thing that he does inside the ring or out wouldn’t totally surprise me. This whole matter will be analyzed to death before it is all said and done and no one will know the correct answer but Jeff and those within WWE hierarchy. They will let us know when we need to know is my guess. Until then, don’t over think it and simply embrace Jeff Hardy’s in ring abilities on Friday nights and look forward to his match with Edge for the World’s Title in Chicago at Judgment Day.



-Fans don’t understand why WWE interfaced with ABC’s “The View” which surprises me. WWE wants to be a vital part of pop culture and “The View” is a part of pop culture and has more men watching it than one would think. Plus, many of the women who regularly watch “The View” have husbands and/or boy friends who are WWE fans. It’s all about exposure and getting it on a quality, high profile TV program isn’t a bad thing. Reaching new sets of eyes is crucial. Wouldn’t you agree that it beats being “featured” on TMZ on a regular basis? Read the entire entry here.
