Jericho noted that he was extremely nervous on last week’s debut episode. “I’ve performed in front of crowds of up to 70,000 people for more than two decades, but last week I experienced a whole different animal,” he said. “Something so foreign, so terrifying, so intimidating that, beforehand, I was as nervous as a 12-year-old girl meeting Justin Bieber for the first time. Yes, kiddies, I was about to make my ballroom debut on ‘Dancing With the Stars’! After rehearsing incessantly for more than three weeks with my partner Cheryl Burke, it was finally time to do the first show. My dress rehearsals had been a bit shaky — performing my routine in the actual ‘DWTS’ studio was scary. Suddenly the guy who had a so-called advantage because of years of performing live was behind the eight ball.”

Jim Ross Blogs: Lawler vs. Miz, Y2J-WWE, Taz, & more!

Jim Ross has finished a new blog over at http://www.JRSBARBQ.com, where he once again discusses a variety of topics.

On Chris Jericho’s First WWE Run: “Chris was very close to being shown the exit during his initial WWE tenure which would not have bode well for yours truly who pushed harder than anyone to sign the then underutilized WCW talent. Jerry Brisco and I met with Chris on a ‘recruiting trip’ in the Tampa area at a place called the Bombay Bicycle Club for lunch and that meeting helped move our negotiations along. Jericho was a great ‘get’ for WWE and made my department look good with the inking of his contract.”

On Taz’s Finishing Dojo: “For you wrestlers who have some experience but want to get to the next level before your personal expiration date arrives then check out http://www.teamtaz13.com. Taz is training wrestlers with experience and his website has all the info. All I can say is that Taz is a natural born coach, Taz will not hose any student out of their hard earned cash, and every wrestler that attends Taz’ ‘finishing school’ will be better prepared than they ever dreamed of becoming to perhaps go from the Indies to full time work.”

On The Miz vs Jerry Lawler at Elimination Chamber: “Any one who thinks that it’s simply not possible for Jerry Lawler, at age 61 and on a week where he buried his 90 year old mother, to win the WWE title against the Miz this Sunday at the Elimination Chamber needs to rethink their position. It is possible and it damn well could happen. I agree that the King is the underdog going in but what a story for the ages it would make if the WWE HOF’er did win the title. I’m not saying bet the farm on it but IF Jerry Lawler were to somehow, by hook or crook, defeat the Miz Sunday it would be one of the hottest topics around the WWE water cooler in years. I admit that I legitimately have an emotional investment in this one because of my friendship with Jerry and after seeing first hand what he went through this week. ”

JR Blogs: The Rock's future, Lawler's title match, Y2J

Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry. Check out the highlights:

On attending the funeral of Jerry Lawler’s mother: “I enjoyed my short visit with Jerry Lawler, his family and friends in Memphis this week as Jerry’s 90 year old mother, Hazel, was laid to rest on Wednesday morning. Mrs. Lawler was a truly wonderful lady who was full of life and personality. I stayed at King’s house on Tuesday night and we sat outside and visited for hours until finally calling it a day about 2 a.m. Laughter was no stranger to the two of us even under the circumstances of the visit.”

On Jerry Lawler’s WWE Title Match at Elimination Chamber: “Jerry is genuinely excited about being in the main event of a WWE PPV which will be this Sunday in Oakland at the Elimination Chamber vs. the Miz for the WWE Title. I would not miss this PPV for the world because I believe that shocks and surprises from WWE will abound over the next few weeks leading into WM27 and no one can argue that Jerry Lawler upsetting Miz to win the WWE title wouldn’t be a HUGE shocker.”

On his upcoming appearances: “Confirmed this week that I will be appearing on Saturday May 7 at the Legends of the Ring function in Monroe, N.J. at the Crowne Plaza hotel.”
On the WWE All Stars game: “The new, THQ produced WWE All Star Video game is getting more and more play as the anticipation builds to it’s release the Tuesday of WM27 week. There will be a tie in with JR’s Family BBQ on this exciting new game so please watch for details.”

On whether we will see Rock wrestle at Wrestlemania 27: “Emailers…of which there have many many…Why is it that so many people think that it’s going to be Rock vs. Cena at WM27 in a wrestling match? Rock has said publically that his in ring wrestling days are history. End of story. It was made clear Monday night that Rock was going to HOST Wrestlemania. Is it possible to see some sort of physical interaction in Atlanta’s Georgia Dome between ‘the Great One’ and Cena? Of course, any thing is possible….except Rock wrestling in an official match but that doesn’t mean that the potential for physicality doesn’t exist.”

On Chris Jericho’s new autobiography and media appearances: “Chris Jericho is pounding the pavement promoting his new book ‘Undisputed’ which I finished last week and now my wife is reading. She’s enjoying it too and, as I mentioned last week, I STRONGLY urge you to buy Chris’ latest but only if you want a candid, honest look behind the scenes at the challenging, frustrating albeit rewarding and crazy life of a big time WWE star. Chris was really good on ‘Red Eye’ and on my wife’s favorite, The Wendy Williams Show this week.”

On his WWE Axxess schedule: “My WM27 Axxess appearances at this time are Friday night at the THQ function which, I think ,starts about 8 pm, Saturday morning from 10-noon with the King at the WWE HOF booth, and Sunday at noon for a Q&A.”

Austin, JR, Y2J, Cena, and others speak on The Rock-WWE

Jim Ross, Chris Jericho and Steve Austin spoke about the Rock’s return last night, here is what they had to say…

Jim Ross: “Got 2 hand it 2 WWE…HBK in HOF, Austin on Tough Enough, Rock to host/star @ WM27…MUCH more on the way. Look out Atlanta!”

Steve Austin: “it was great to see The Rock back on RAW tonight…helluva promo from an electrifying cat. great stuff heading into Mania.”

CM Punk: “Rock owes me fifty bucks for going 20 minutes past the hour, making me miss my valentines day reservations at Nobu.”

Big Show: “Did anyone notice the chill bumps on Rocks arms as he gave his catch phrase? The rock is back!”

Taz: “GREAT JOB by Rock! Miss having steaks with him & Dud’s after shows!!! Great times! 1 of the greatest of all times!!!”

Chris Jericho: “Congratulations to one of my favorite opponents and greatest rivals on returning to the WWE. The Rock is the BEST promo man of all time…”
