Jim Ross, who doesn't hide his anger or hurt feelings too well, posted a new blog on his BBQ website, which you can read at this link: http://www.jrsbarbq.com/2008/04/24/not-voting-flairs-greatest-opponent-beyond-the-mat-calzaghe-yes-this-is-a-bar-b-q-website/. JR is still ranting about BEYOND THE MAT, the Barry Blaustein movie from 10 years ago. Ross writes: "This documentary which was originally scheduled for limited released as an "art film" or so I was told, has to have done well in a financial sense for the producers. Especially considering that I don’t think the producers had much money invested in paying those of us who took our time and appeared on the film and contributed to the production of it. I know I was never paid a dime for my contributions on it, which used to bother me more then than it does now. Nonetheless, for those that haven’t seen it, "Beyond the Mat" provides a unique and somewhat one dimensional look at the dark side of the business in what some would describe as an exploitative manner. I also can’t deny that it is at times a compelling production. I just wish I had not been mislead and could have earned a fair payday from it."
