Note on Eric Bischoff storyline, update on Jim Ross, former WWE stars

In regards to the current storyline involving Eric Bischoff, recent reports have stated that despite the direction the company appears to be going, the plan is to have Bischoff remain in his status as the General Manager of RAW and that some swerve will take place to prevent Bischoff from losing the spot. Of course, that could always change. Either way, I would except the viewing audience would like to hear some type of a resolution given that they have teased Shane McMahon as the next possible GM more than once.

The latest on Jim Ross is that he is still at his home in Oklahoma recovering from his recent surgery. From what is known, Ross' health has improved greatly. As far as the plans for him in WWE goes, that is where details are sketchy. The original plan was to have Ross return to WWE as the voice of RAW on WWE.com on the "Unlimited" program that streams during RAW's commercial breaks. WWE has since de-pushed that aspect of the website a bit since USA become worried about driving viewers to the WWE's website, which would end up hurting USA in their ad sales.
