Jim Ross recently spoke with sportingnews.com, and discusses his desire to do commentary for New Japan Pro Wrestling. Here are the highlights…

Is He Interested in Doing English Commentary For NJPW?: “I’m very interested in doing special projects and that certainly would be on that list of a special project. And I think if they were serious about their marketing of their pay-per-views — and I guess their big show is January 4th — that if they were really serious about that event being a hit in the English-speaking countries, that I might be able to help them.

Has He Had Any Talks With NJPW?: “I have had no (contact) with the decision-makers within the New Japan organization, we have yet to engage in any discussions.”
Yeah, so they don't even need to convince him to do it. If the people in charge of introducing NJPW to American audiences have a single brain cell in their head, they'll take JR up on his interest to commentate for them. Not only is he argueably the best play-by-play guy in wrestling history, it gives the promotion instant credibility to those unfamiliar with the product.

Seriously, this is a no brainer.
