wrestlingringJim Ross ran quotes from a conversation with Terry Funk regarding concern over the legendary pro wrestler’s health. “I had abdominal hernia surgery just four days before I flew to Philly for (Tommy) Dreamer’s promotion and I was supposed to lay low,” Funk said. “I felt fine, ignored the doctor’s advice and decided to make the trip and keep my booking.

“By the time I flew from Amarillo to Philly and then signed what seemed like a thousand autographs that day, when the show roiled around I was completely fatigued. It had been a helluva long day and, dammit Ross, I was tired! I had been up 48 hours straight. I asked if I could leave early and they said that I could so I went back to the hotel and went to bed. I was dead ass tired and I had to get up early and fly back to Amarillo. I’m still alive and I’m just fine.” Read the full report at JRsbarbq.com..

Powell’s POV: Go out of your way to read the full blog, as it opens with a fun story about Funk ribbing JR when they spoke. It’s good to hear the 72 year-old legend is feeling well. Ross noted that he will share more of the conversation in the Ross Report Podcast that will drop tonight at 8CT.
