The Ross Report
"Until you've walked a mile in my hat...you only know half the story!" -- Jim Ross |
Big Show Surgery
The Big Show had surgery early this morning on his injured knee. Early diagnosis estimates Show will be back in six weeks. Could be a little earlier or later depending on how hard the seven footer works rehabbing the repaired wheel. The WWF is organizing a very ambitious rehab schedule for Show, plus, will be addressing his weight issues while he is healing. This youngster's health is of utmost importance to all of us and he will be strongly encouraged and motivated to improve his general health and conditioning. Show's surgery was done in Tampa.

Mark Henry Issue
Let's clarify the Mark Henry issue. Firstly, the WWF is not trying to "get Mark Henry to quit," as has been speculated in the internet. If the WWF wanted to stop doing business with Mark, he would have been released… legally. We are trying to get him to realize his potential, improve his in-ring skills by working regularly and to continue to lose unneeded weight and get in top physical condition. In Louisville with Ohio Valley Wrestling, Mark can, hopefully, accomplish all these goals. The current level of talent in the WWF is such that anything less than one's absolute best just will not get it done. |
Tazz Update
Tazz's injured bicep may not require surgery, according to doctors. If that is the case, Tazz could be back in approximately six weeks; however, if surgery is done expect a three-month rehab period. Tazz was just beginning to get adjusted in the WWF when the injury occurred and WWF officials still have very high expectations of the former ECW Champion. Obviously, Tazz's tenure thus far in the WWF has been less successful than originally projected; however, his attitude has remained largely positive, his merchandise is selling very well and the Brooklyn native has adjusted well in the locker room. I believe that when everything comes together, Tazz will be an upper-level player in this organization. By the way, Tazz is being treated by the New York Mets' doctor.

Stone Cold Update
Stone Cold Steve Austin is really pushing himself daily as his workouts continue. The Rattlesnake has been in great spirits lately after getting a positive update from his neurosurgeon. Austin's return is still uncertain but it will not be before SummerSlam, if then. |
Visceras Injury
Viscera may be able in return in the next few weeks, depending on how hard he rehabs his injured shoulder. Gangrel is working hard to heal his shoulder and could be back soon.
