WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with a Tuesday afternoon blog update, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights of what JR wrote about:
Daniel Bryan’s Breakout Year: “@WWEDanielBryan…arguably WWE’s most interesting star at the moment and who seems to NEVER have a bad match with anyone. Back in the day, Bryan would have been a great candidate to have been the traveling, NWA Champion because of his skill level and believable personality. However, egocentric NWA promoters and power brokers would have bemoaned Daniel’s lack of size and found other lame excuses to exclude him from the process.”
Triple H & Brock Lenar’s Segment On RAW: “Really enjoyed the HHH/Lesnar business with @ShawnMichaels and @HeymanHustle adding greatly to the process. The segment left me wanting more which I perceive as a good thing. I was thinking that it would be a potentially long night for Shawn in his hometown, I speak from experience, but I was wrong. I was looking for the ‘heater’ and got an off speed pitch. Now I have even more to look forward to regarding this high profile matter heading into Summerslam.”
“Lesnar telling HBK that ‘I’ll see you before Summerslam’ is a major declaration.”
Shawn Michaels Appreciation Night: “I wish I had been in San Antonio for the HBK Appreciation Night portion of the evening that was held after RAW went off the air. I’m a major HBK fan for many reasons and not all of them have to do with wrestling. I am grateful that I was a small part of the process that helped facilitate Shawn’s WWE return after four years off.”
CM Punk’s Promo At The End Of RAW: “Punk’s closing promo to King was entertaining and provocative. I hope that Punk gets back to more of his eye opening, shocking verbalizing style in the week’s to come.”
