Jim Ross posted a blog entry on his official website yesterday so that he could reply to the e-mails he was getting regarding Kurt Angle in TNA, Vince Russo in TNA, ROH, tag team wrestling, the nWo/DX rumors, and more. You can check out that blog entry by clicking here.
Also, people can reply with their comments on the blog. Former WWE and WCW wrestler Chris Kanyon decided to chime in with his comments and air out some grievances that had been bothering him. Here is what he posted:

JR, I no longer have respect for you like I once did, I even found you to be a little cute, but the way I was fired and miss-treated while in WWE was wrong and straight out discriminatory. You claim vince is not racist? What about the gay people such as myself and Orlando Jordan that were released? OJ was made to look like a fool infront of the fans and had a even more racist gimmick suggestion from creative team, he said he didn't feel comfortable making fun of what he was and for that he was fired! So tell me J.R why would vince fire OJ other than those reasons? he was skilled in the ring, did what managment asked… No, it was not that he was a bad worker that got him fired, it was that he was a Homosexual!!!!! I was fired for the same reason. Remember when I was told to look like a bad gay person on national TV and then let the Undertaker beat theS*** out of me because you claimed America hates gays and will eat it up? Well luv you j.r! your a lieing piece of garbage and your a gay hater!
Kanyon recently made wrestling headlines by making an unscheduled appearance at a WWE house show. He went to the front row and made a scene when DX was in the ring, holding one sign that said, "Ask Vince why he fired me" and another that was directed at HBK that read "Pray for my gay soul." He was then escorted out of the building by security.
Can we verify it was really Kanyon? I mean, the bad grammar is there ("lieing," "miss-treated" - if he's so intent on playing the gay card, maybe he should just change his gimmick to "Miss Treated"), but if anyone can leave comments, who knows? Anyway, if it is Kanyon, I guess he resigned himself to the fact that he's not getting another job with WWE. Still, he's pretty much blacklisting himself in the industry as a drama queen (king, if that offends anyone) and an attention Bob Saget.
Funniest part of the comment, however: "JR, I no longer have respect for you like I once did, I even found you to be a little cute"
Sounds like a guy playing the role of a gay man. Or at least playing up the "When you're gay, you're loud about it all the time" stereotype. I LIKE Kanyon, but this headline grabbing needs to stop. Get your act together (i.e., let the "They fired me because I'm gay" thing go, even if it is true), and maybe you'll be worth something to WWE again someday.
