Story on Jim Ross/Backlash Incident
For those wondering about the incident at Backlash involving Santina stating she was "in love" with Jim Ross, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that the announcers didn't know that was going to happen and what was discussed at the production meeting and what was later on the written script were two different things. It was basically another example of Vince McMahon bullying Ross on TV, which is something he seems to enjoy and has done repeatedly in the past. It was obvious to many that McMahon was feeding Michael Cole the lines about how JR should "come out of the closet" and referring to him as "Mr. BBQ man" to which JR responded, "Who fed you that line?"
