GRILLING JR 4/2/20: WRESTLEMANIA 2000

57:25 Jim Ross on the Ultimate Warrior: “I’ve never been a big fan of the Ultimate Warrior, never was, never will be. He has a beautiful family who I wish nothing but the bless them. They had to live with him and his craziness and idiosyncrasies and now be alone, that’s a tough hand to be dealt. But he was not a good person in my estimation. In my opinion, Jim Hellwig was not a good person.” “His lack of respect for different people.”

1:24:00 Ross on Eddie Guerrero vs Chyna: “I didn’t like the booking. I didn’t like intergender matches, I still don’t like them. I’m old school guys, I really am. It’s not believable in the most senses, it’s not believable that a woman can give up significant strength and size, etc. and be competitive in the showbiz world of pro wrestling. It’s too big a stretch for me to get there. I can’t buy it.”
