on Chris Jericho’s Work Ethic
Good luck to Chris Jericho and his band, Fozzy, on the release this coming Tuesday of their new CD. Jericho is not afraid to work and has undying passion for the projects that he is involved. It takes a special performer like Jericho or John Cena to stay SO busy with outside projects and still maintain an active and productive in ring schedule. The only advice that I would share with talents like this is remember the term “moderation” and be sure that you take a “time out” occasionally. Burn out can occur or even more likely injuries are more prevalent when talents are worn out or unfocused. Jericho’s in ring work since returning from a year or so sabbatical has been spectacular.
on Matt Striker’s job as an announcer on Smackdown
One emailer railed a little on SD voice Matt Striker for over- hyping something on Friday Night Smackdown. I don’t even remember what it was but just for the record announcers are paid to do a certain amount of hype and hyperbole while the magic is to do it and not slap the viewers across the face with it. I’ve been just as guilty as Striker or any other announcer hyping things that I needed to back down a notch or two.
on the WWE Draft
Please stop asking me about the WWE Draft because I have no info on it nor do I know the date, location, etc. Sorry I can’t help those that are asking but I can’t. My experiences with the Draft have been “unique” to put it nicely but I will say that if I’m still at home when the Draft airs on TV that I will watch it from start to finish.
