Ross welcomes Josh Barnett to the show.
Ross thanks Barnett for having his back at the NJPW this past weekend, when he was knocked to the floor accidentally during one of the matches. Barnett says he’ll always have Ross’ back, and he wasn’t a fan of the way Jay White mocked him after knocking Ross to the floor. That’s why he jumped over the guardrail and into the ring in pursuit of White.
Ross informs that both White and Juice Robinson sought him out and apologized to him after the show and he could tell they meant it, but they didn’t have an answer for him when he asked them what they were trying to accomplish with that spot. He thought the entire situation was dangerous, and he couldn’t understand why the ring crew didn’t have the guardrails secured.
Ross comments on the continued success of The Young Bucks. He points out that they have improved dramatically over the years, and they’ve taken their selling to a new level. They continue to reinvent themselves, and he considers them to be at the top of the game in terms of tag team wrestling.
Ross and Barnett continue to receive occasional criticism from specific NJPW fans regarding their commentary, and Barnett notes that he tries to ignore it most of the time. However, sometimes he enjoys to respond because those fans are so easy to rile up and he enjoys getting them going.
