Apparently Impact Wrestling is shopping for a new television network, and this doesn’t surprise Ross at all. He points out that Impact will go out of business long before they should if they stay on PopTV.
Ross is really impressed by Drew McIntyre’s presence on RAW, noting that there are few people more passionate about being “The Man” in WWE than McIntyre. Ross also enjoyed Dean Ambrose’s promo on RAW this past week, adding that it’s hard to listen to overly-scripted dialogue that the performers don’t believe in. He thought Ambrose’s delivery here was great and the promo made sense.
Ross mentions that The Rock made his debut at Survivor Series 1996. During that broadcast Ross called Rock a “blue chipper”, but the Rock took that term to a whole new level. Rock went on to overachieve for sure, dominating the wrestling world and then moving on to dominate Hollywood.
A listener writes into the show and says he always wanted to see The Undertaker vs. Sting at WrestleMania. The caller sees WrestleMania 35 as the last chance for this match. Ross says the time has passed for that match and it won’t happen. He does agree with the caller though, adding that he would have loved to see that match when both men were in their prime, and not suffering from lingering injuries.
