Ross notes that he’s in discussion with Conrad Thompson about doing a podcast. It looks like the show will be happening, and it will replace this podcast.
Ross informs that after talking with Vince McMahon for a couple of weeks, they mutually agreed to part ways. Ross had been working for WWE for 26 years and he has no regrets at all. McMahon was always amazing to him and his late wife, Jan, and provided him with a great living. However, at 67 years old Ross still feels like he has something to offer the business and he wants to challenge himself again. He doesn’t think he’ll be out of work long.
A listener writes into the show and asks Ross for his thoughts on Asuka. Ross thinks Asuka is grossly under-utilized. He thinks WWE dropped the ball by booking Asuka to lose at WrestleMania last year, and since then her creative hasn’t been good. He thinks there’s still room for another big female star in WWE, and Asuka should be that star.
Another listener writes into the show and asks Ross if he thinks WWE hired Bruce Prichard as a way to get back at Conrad Thompson, who recently booked The Undertaker and has been working closely with AEW. Ross doesn’t think that’s the case at all. He notes that WWE needs Prichard’s expertise and Prichard always worked well with McMahon.
