Here are some of the highlights from the interview, provided by The Mayhem’s exclusive recapper, The eXtreme Icon!

---

*Jimmy joined The Big Mosh, Blade, & The Angry Hero just minutes after finishing up at The Verizon Center in Washington D.C. with last-minute preparations for WWE's Monday Night RAW. He also did some work with the USO & the Make-A-Wish Foundation while in "our nation's capital," in addition to doing "The Road To WrestleMania" media blitz. "A big week for 'The Mouth Of The South."

*Jimmy said that it will be a "great feeling" to be back in Detroit for WrestleMania 23, and he remembers the "wonderful feeling" he had being part of WrestleMania III at The Pontiac Silverdome. Mosh, Hero, & Blade talked about Jimmy having to changing his jackets & ties so many times at WM III, and asked how difficult that was with all that was going on that afternoon/evening. Jimmy answered by saying that he always made sure that he looked different for each guy he was managing. He wanted to make sure everyone looked special, by wearing something that had to do with their gimmick.

*Jimmy will be on "Shop At Home" next Saturday night, March 24th. He will be giving the fans a chance to buy some old-school Memphis & XWF footage.

*He says that himself, The Honky Tonk Man, & Greg "The Hammer" Valentine could be getting action figures soon as Rhythm & Blues.

*Jimmy gave some WrestleMania 23 predictions: he has Donald Trump & Bobby Lashley being victorious against Vince McMahon & Umaga in "The Battle Of The Billionaires," with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin as the Special Guest Referee. He says that the WWE fans are behind both "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels & John Cena, so there is going to be a bunch of them torn between the two WWE superstars in the RAW main event of WrestleMania. Jimmy is also very much looking forward to The Undertaker vs. Batista.

*Mosh & Blade asked Jimmy his thoughts about Teddy Hart, Nattie Heidhart, & Harry Smith possibly recreating The Hart Foundation in World Wrestling Entertainment. Believe it or not, "The Mouth Of The South" is not against seeing this happen, especially since all three have obvious connections to former members of the original group. He believes that "Teddy is different different from a lot of the stars, and he deserves to get a break in the WWE."

*He decided to leave Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, simply because it was becoming too hard to do so many good things. TNA called him a few years ago when they were trying to get out of Nashville, TN so he got them into Universal Studios, and began to manage The Naturals to the NWA World Tag Team Titles. Jimmy wished to add that he does want ALL of the companies to do well & succeed, because plain & simple, it's good for the wrestling business.

*The Mayhem asks the hard-hitting questions, so Hero, Blade, & Mosh wanted to know some more of the lowdown as to why Hulk Hogan is not going to appear at WrestleMania 23, twenty years after the legendary "slam heard around the world." Jimmy said that "it's important to never burn bridges that you want to cross over in the wrestling business," so he tries very hard not to get into the stuff between Hulk & the WWE. Without a shadow of a doubt, he wishes "The Big Man" could be at the show.

*As his Mayhem parting shot, Jimmy told the guys that if they can get The Mid-South Coliseum, that he would like to try & promote one more match there, before it is torn down -- possibly Jerry "The King" Lawler vs. "The Immortal" Hulk Hogan. Will it happen? Stay tuned...

*In addition, Jimmy's 30+minute interview contained his candid thoughts on the banter, discussion, & rumors that have been circulating the internet about how the higher-up's within the WWE did not want Jerry "The King" Lawler having legendary Memphis announcer, Lance Russell, inducting him at the WWE Hall Of Fame Ceremonies. Jimmy's answer may surprise you...

*Jimmy also gave his personal comments on this year's Class Of 2007 going into the WWE Hall Of Fame & why he thinks that The Ultimate Warrior should be one of the next to get inducted, whether or not The Honky Tonk Man would accept an invitation into the Hall if asked by Vince McMahon, & his memories of the late "Big Cat" Ernie Ladd, Bad News Brown, Mike Awesome, & Bam Bam Bigelow.

*The Big Mosh & Blade also strongly encourage all Mayhem fans to check out what has been circulating the wrestling world over the past 48+ hours -- the highly-anticipated interview with the voice of WWE RAW, Jim Ross. A complete WrestleMania preview, his memories of the late "Big Cat" Ernie Ladd, whether or not he thinks he'd headed to the WWE Hall Of Fame, his uncensored thoughts on TNA, & so much more are encompassed in this hour-long interview (co-hosted by The Mayhem's National Correspondent, Scott Hudson). That was the end of the hour-long Jim Ross interview. Make sure you check out more info about Jim Ross & his BBQ products (BBQ sauce, beef jerky, & autographed merchandise) at www.jrsbarbq.com.

The Mayhem was not done yet...because as soon JR was finished up, WWE Diva/Playboy centerfold/Go Daddy Girl, Candice Michelle, called in for more WWE discussion and to do a shoot against Melina that WWE.com would not post, because of Melina's feud with Ashley. That interview is also available in the archived edition of the March 15th show -- now playing The Monday Night Mayhem Radio Network!
