— Jim Ross says he has no interest in seeing the final days of Chris Benoit re-told in a new big screen ‘biographical thriller’, entitled Crossface.
When asked for comment on the upcoming movie, he tweeted, “No thoughts…no interest…too sad.”
He added, “I was asked my opinion re: potential Beniot movie. I gave my opinion, did ‘man’ up. Have no interest reliving the tragedy. I lost 3 friends.”
SRG Films announced Saturday formal plans to produce a film based on the life of the deceased former wrestler, which will be adapted from Matthew Randazzo’s book Ring of Hell: The Story of Chris Benoit and the Fall of the Pro Wrestling Industry. Production is tentatively scheduled to begin next fall.
— Former WWE star Chris Masters is now on Facebook. He tweeted, “Be sure to check out my FB page. Lots of updates! Christopher Mordetzky.”
