JR Blog Update: WWE Return, Wrestler Dress Code Comments

News

JR checked in on Friday with a blog just in time for the weekend. Here are YOUR blog highlights:

On when he’ll return to WWE:
We’ve received many emails from folks asking when I’m going to be back on WWE TV and I’m happy to say that I’m feeling better than I have in a long time and I’m in a really positive frame of mind. I hope to be back on WWE TV in a couple of months at the most. I’m still unable to completely close my right eye and the paralysis on the right side of my face is still prevalent but I continue to heal which is the main thing.

On wrestlers “looking the part”
Before I forget, one thing that used to always stand out to me with certain old school, main event wrestlers is how many of them dressed. Tailored suits and starched shirts were the norm for many of pro wrestling’s biggest names of yesteryear. Lou Thesz and Buddy Rogers always wore a suit to the arenas and out in public. They weren’t alone, for the record. When a photo op came around these men wanted to always make sure that they “looked the part” and had a professional, buttoned up appearance that lent itself to looking successful and first class. Not a bad philosophy.

Another pretty long blog from JR with a lack of wrestling insight, but always interesting to hear what he has to say.
