WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his blog at JRsBarBQ.com with his thoughts about last night’s WWE Bragging Rights Pay-Per-View. Here’s what JR had to say about the top matches:
The 14-man Raw vs. SmackDown Match: Chris Jericho will likely continue to be the most despised man in WWE which is apropos and befits his ample skills. The SD team winning the 7 man tag, as I mentioned, surprised me but not in a bad way. Fans can choose to nit pick any 7 man tag all they choose but with 14 bodies in one, one fall match these massive tags are tough to navigate. The follow up, or fall out as it were, should make for some potentially intriguing TV. For any one who may think that 14 athletes are going to get “equal time” in a bout such as this isn’t realistic. The things that were top line issues got the focus they seem to need/warrant. I thought the 7 man tag delivered as expected, again in a challenging format. A Jericho/Big Show vs. DX issue looms one would assume.
World Heavyweight Title Match: “Fatal 4 Ways can only have so many agendas and the biggest thing to come out of the World Title Match was the Batista-Mysterio issue which should make for some interesting Friday Night Smackdown. The big, disgruntled bully against the smaller underdog seems to be a dog that will hunt.”
Cena & Orton’s Iron Man Match: “I throughly enjoyed the 60 Minute Ironman Match and that was the match that I would have most loved to have participated in from an old school perspective. Cena and Orton rose to the occasion, in a physically demanding environment and told a magnificent story to bring the PPV to the close it needed. Loved the physicality and intensity as ‘going the hour’ is a challenging piece of business. Cena is unquestionably and obviously the ‘Face of WWE’ which is no revelation but was certainly reaffirmed Sunday night. Orton has raised his game to an extraordinary level and he’s still not nearly as good as he is going to be considering his age and what lies ahead for the third generation wrestler. That’s a scary thought.”

I would love to hear JR in a shoot interview after he leaves WWE and let him say what he truly feels about everything. He speaks his mind a lot, in honest form on his blog. But everyone knows that the Cena/Orton Iron Man match was about 40 minutes of Orton standing, Cena lying on the ground and headlocks. Glad everyone was too young in the audience to remember any of the previous Iron Man matches…they would have left the building if they did…
It was kind of funny. I went to dvr raw yesterday before the ppv and it said in the info something along the lines of “The results of Bragging Rights featuring John Cena.” Cat out of the bag early?
Honestly how can you compare this to the angle iron man or the Shawn micheals one… There’s only so much orton can carry cena.. Haven’t you noticed how sick and twisted his manerisim are as he slithering around and working cena slowly… Then hitting his high impact signatures out of nowhere. Orton is great and carried cena as much as any good heel could without constant suplexing …
I totally agree. The iron man was bull****. Michaels vs. Hart was a real iron man match!!! Ross says evereythin that plaeses the WWE and I guess this will never change…
