The following are the highlights of today's Ross Report, which is available on the WWE website.

-It wasn't mentioned until page five of the Ross Report, but Jim Ross announced that WWE and X-Pac (a/k/a Sean Waltman) have mutually agreed to part ways. Ross did have some nice things to say about Waltman: "Personally, Sean is one of my all-time favorite people in our business and one hell of a talented in-ring performer. I truly wish him nothing but success in the future."

-Ross gives his thoughts on the individual SummerSlam match.

-Road agent Dave Hebner is having knee replacement surgery today.

-Trish Stratus and Charles Robinson had to have their eyes flushed by the medical staff after working in Monday's mud match on Raw.

-Rob Van Dam has been working through elbow pain and will be evaluated by a doctor soon.

-Rosie has a hip-flexor injury and his in-ring work has been limited. As reported in a recent issue of the Torch Newsletter, Rosie suffered the injury while working out in the ring prior to a recent Raw.

-Maven will miss another eight weeks while his ankle heals.

-Sean O'Haire suffered a pulled groin and has been working through a "deep muscle strain in his abdomen."

-Val Venis will likely return to the ring in a few weeks after recuperating a neck injury he suffered during a freak weight training accident.

-Kanyon is at least two months away from being able to return to the ring.

-Kevin Nash is expected to attend SummerSlam, but is still six to eight months away from returning.

-Perry Saturn had ACL surgery and won't be back until October at the latest.

-Rhyno is due back in September.

-Eric Angle received medical clearance to resume his OVW workouts.

-Hulk Hogan was in Minneapolis yesterday and met with Target store officials regarding the upcoming release of his biography.

-Lance Storm taped his appearance on Tough Enough 3 yesterday.

-Jamie Noble and Nidia will be hosting SummerSlam at The World.

-Lita and Fabulous Moolah will be signing autographs at "Open Book" in Greenville, S.C. on Saturday.

-After Smackdown went off the air, Rock brought an 8 year old fan into the ring as part of the Make-A-Wish Foundation program. Ross referred to it as "as touching of a moment as I have ever witnessed in my 25-plus years in the business.

-Lita, Terri, Stacy Keibler, and Trish Stratus are going to be hanging out in Jim Ross's backyard this weekend. Well, actually, they'll be there to take part in the cover shoot for the next WWE cookbook.

-"Good seeing Tony Schiavone at our Fayetteville event this past Tuesday," Ross wrote.
