Ronda Rousey appearing at WrestleMania 31 last night was to set up a match in the future, likely a tag like was hinted at, but that match is apparently not set in stone. It looks like WWE is going to set up Undertaker vs. Sting tonight on Raw, or at least drop a few hints at it to do the double retirement match at WrestleMania 32 in Dallas next year. According to PW Insider, there may be some issues between Stone Cold Steve Austin and WWE over the use of his podcast on the WWE Network and that's why he didn't appear at WrestleMania last night. WWE announcing Chris Jericho's podcast with John Cena on the Network supports that idea. Dave Meltzer noted that WWE is putting the "full court press" on Jim Ross to get him back into the fold with the company. Triple H tweeted something during the NXT show in San Jose when they were chanting for Ross, who was ringside, that made it sound like they're trying to bring him back on. In what role is unclear. Regarding the Phil Baroni to WWE rumors, there's some word that he may end up on the new season of Tough Enough.

Can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get Jim Ross back on commentary? I'd love him back on RAW replacing Cole. I know it won't happen but Cole needs to go...I think everyone is sick of him.

JR back in commentary would be greatly welcomed. But only if his health permits it.

Would not complain about seeing more Ronda. Surprised it would be allowed though.

Please no Taker/Sting. Both legends but this is several years too late.

Thats not going to happen, but if he was the lead announcer on NXT that would be great. He can help train the other announcers too if they want him in that role.

I'd watch Jim Ross call paint drying if they made a TV show out of it.

I'm surprised UFC let her be physical, for the record Ronda Rousey is hot as hell

Her shirt made her over 9000x hotter

With Triple H being behind the JR push, this is more than likely looking to get him calling NXT and taking a role to develop the commentators in the company. Either that or replacing Cole on SmackDown and reuniting he and the King.

JR calling NXT would give an already semi-old school brand even MORE credibility. Damn, it'd be like watching WCW on Saturday nights again!

Too bad about SCSA and WWE as I really enjoyed having his podcast on the network. I wonder what the issues are?
