WWE announcer Jim Ross posted a new blog on jrsbarbq.com recapping his night back in the WWE locker room at last night's Raw taping in Oklahoma City, including the latest on him appearing at WrestleMania 26 and interacting with Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart.

-- Ross appeared live in front of the Raw audience during a commercial break last night and told the audience he "hopes" to be at WrestleMania 26 calling the PPV.

"If I was asked once, I was asked a 100 times, 'When are you coming back?' I don't have the exact answer to that question but my standard and honest response remains the same and that is that my goal is and always has been to return to WWE at WrestleMania 26," Ross said. "If all the necessary arrangements can be made from a business perspective then that goal will hopefully become a reality. There is really no more to this story than I told the live audience during Raw while the show was in a commercial break and that I would 'hopefully' see them at WrestleMania."

-- Ross recapped his conversation with Bret Hart, who talked up Ross on his personal Facebook page a few weeks ago when he said Ross was severely missing from his WWE TV return calling the program with Vince McMahon.

"Bret, as we discussed, will never be '100 percent,' but his heart and spirit are strong and he will no doubt do all he physically and mentally can to provide the fans their monies worth at WM26 versus Mr. McMahon," Ross said.

Ross said he talked to Hart about possibly doing a Q&A down the road if it works out. "I would love that opportunity and feel that we could provide those in attendance a interesting evening of entertainment," Ross said. "This is all drawing board stuff and may never come to fruition but it was fun to brainstorm."

-- Ross also recapped a conversation with Shawn Michaels about working in the Mid-South territory when Michaels first started in the business. Ross also talked up the Michaels-Undertaker program for WrestleMania 26.
