WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with his latest blog. Here are some highlights:
Paul Heyman’s return on Raw: “Paul Heyman’s return to Raw Monday night was a pleasant surprise. Heyman’s skills help add star power to the WWE’s franchise broadcast and his role of representing Brock Lesnar is art imitating life to some degree.”
Heyman’s promo: “Heyman’s promo was effective because Paul wasn’t playing a character that he did not ‘feel’ but instead was simply being himself…amplified. The promo was also ‘money’ because Heyman has a legit, emotional investment in the topic on which he addressed.”
Heyman’s WWE future: “I have no idea if or when we will see Paul again in his Lesnar Rep role. I think that it would be entertaining as hell if Paul sat in with King and Cole for a match or two on Raw. Fireworks!!
“Even though the TV persona of Heyman can be a boil on the buttocks of life, no one can ever deny that the lifelong fan doesn’t have immense talent and passion for the genre. Some fans have Tweeted me @JRsBBQ and said that WM17 was their favorite WrestleMania and included the commentary done by Paul and yours truly as one of the reasons why.”
Much more is contained in JR’s latest blog, including his thoughts on Eve in her new role, Steve Austin’s new show, Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston and more. You can check out the full entry by clicking here.
