Hello JR, greetings from Down Under! We may never get a chance to meet so I'd like to take a moment to congratulate you on your career and the fantastic job you do week in, week out. I hope your voice will continue to welcome us to WWE broadcasts for years to come! I have a couple of questions I hope won't take up too much of your time. First, I'm guessing basketball isn't as big a passion for you as wrestling football and MMA but are you excited about Oklahoma City getting an NBA team permanently? Much of the focus has been on the fallout in Seattle which is understandable but at the same time it's tremendous news for hoops fans in Oklahoma. My second question is about my favourite wrestler, The Undertaker. Would you say the respect his onscreen character receives reflects the general feeling backstage? I know you've got to take the "insider" reports with a grain of salt but pretty much any shoot interview that mentions the Deadman does so in a positive light, even when the individuals in question are speaking unkindly about other WWE talent or the company in general.

Oklahoma is excited about getting a NBA team but I can't help but feel bad for Seattle hoop fans w/ the way things went down. Taker's body of work within the WWE, especially going 16-0 at Wrestlemania's, puts him at the top of any list of WWE Superstars in my personal opinion. It's arguable that The Undertaker is the WWE's all time best taking into account Taker's long tenure w/ the company. I have no clue about your question re: the backstage attitude and Taker. I don't know what one has to do w/ the other.

Hi JR, do you think Randy Couture (16-8) has any chance against Fedor Emelianenko (28-1) ? I think Chuck Liddell vs. Fedor would be much more intriguing ... Or Brock Lesnar vs. Fedor. Although Lesnar's been already defeated, nobody could give him a beating yet.

If Couture is healthy, focused and trains as he has done for many big fights he has a chance against anyone. With that said, the chances of Couture winning were much greater when he was younger than they likely are today. I would love to see the fight sooner than later as Couture's fans should as well. My answer is yes but Randy would be the heavy underdog.  

Hey J.R, Do you or have you ever worked out in a Gym?, if so what does a J.R routine look like?

Are you working on your standup comedy routine? I do not work out as much as I should and trail the Mrs workout regime by a long shot. I need to get motivated in this area but when I do hit the gym I focus on cardio especially the treadmill. Bottom line is I am no role model in this area.

Hey J.R. did you get to see Lesnar dominate the texas crazy horse? And if you did what did you think of Lesnar's preformance

Absolutely. Read my blogs here on the site about Lesnar that are archived here. Brock was a beast against Herring who is a tough dude. Lesnar is arguably the hottest fighter in the MMA right now or at least the most talked about. MMA purists hate that Brock was a star in the WWE once upon a time but how can a sane person compare the two entities?

If it does go down as planned who do you think will win between De La Hoya & Pacquiao? The fight is set for December 6, 2008.

Love Oscar but at this stage of his game he would have to have the fight of his life to beat Manny. I'll buy this fight.
