– In J.R.’s latest column on WWE.com, Ross made note of tension backstage in the SmackDown Diva locker room. Ross wrote: “Do you know the most cunning and dangerous area of the SmackDown arena before show time? That’s easy; it’s the Diva locker rooms. I’m hearing some interesting stories coming out of those locker rooms and they are not overly flattering. Something big may be brewing in Divaland.” Ross also lists 10 ten things you probably didn’t know about Tazz (which he learned during a recent road trip with his broadcast partner), Mike Adamle apparently being done with WWE, MVP’s losing streak, and more. Ross also says Jerry Lawler recently purchased a new mansion in Memphis.
