The voice of RAW Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry on his official website. Here are some highlights:
On Lesnar’s comments that JR told him to do the Shooting Star Press at WrestleMania: I don’t think I have ever read Powerslam Magazine, but nonetheless I have no idea what Lesnar is talking about. That assertion is just plain stupid. Even when I was in charge of talent relations I never got involved in match structure. The WWE provided Lesnar a wonderful opportunity to earn a great living for many years and Brock chose to leave. He chose to leave, no one forced him out. I have no idea where his “Wrestlemania Moment” story came from but I could truly care less what history Lesnar cares to rewrite. I know I personally treated Brock Lesnar fairly and honestly and went far above the call of duty with him on more than one occasion no matter the “poor me” B.S. one sometimes hears. However, I do wish Brock well in his MMA career. but for some reason one could surmise that controversy may well follow the talented athlete there as well.
Regarding Ron Killings/WWE: I think too many people are asking “Ron Killings questions” when I have NO ANSWERS. If I hear anything, I’ll let you know.
Thoughts on a pure title match: If it works for ROH, then that is good for them and makes their title bouts different. I am an old schooler and this would not be something I would encourage, if I were the lead dog. It sounds like a pinball machine. That’s akin to having a 6 sided ring… I would not endorse that either, if you are keeping score at home.
On WWE changing to announcer’s table location: I never heard a viable reason for the location change, but it sucked to sit next to the pyro and so far away from ringside. I think it was to differentiate the announce teams, as Smackdown stayed at ringside and Raw got moved to the back of the room. It also might have had something to do with Bischoff as the Raw G.M. and the fact that WCW oftentimes had their announcers out in left field… so to speak.
Jerry Lawler’s wrestling ability: Many young wrestlers in the WWE would be well served to wrestle the King as often as they could. Lawler is still a better performer than the majority of wrestlers who are active today. King has stayed relatively healthy over the years, which enabled him to wrestle much more efficiently than some of his contemporaries.
The possibility of Pyscho Sid or Bob Sapp working in WWE: I do not know Sid’s physical well being or how he would physically hold up wrestling a full time schedule. However, on the surface one could surmise that Sid would help the WWE at least for the short term with a little good fortune. It essentially comes back to how well Sid is and who he would be competing against? Some have speculated that Bob Sapp might not be committed to a pro wrestling career. I really don’t know, but Bob does have “presence” without fail. It would be interesting to see how well Sapp would do if he was really committed to becoming a great in ring performer.
