Sheamus’ Potential, Kofi Kingston’s Push, Ozzy & Sharon

Sheamus’ Potential, Kofi Kingston’s Push, Ozzy & Sharon

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his JRsBarBQ.com blog – here are some highlights:

Ozzy & Sharon Hosting Raw: “I liked Ozzie and Sharon Osbourne’s role on Raw Monday night. It wasn’t overkill and it played to their strengths. Ozzie, honestly, pleasantly surprised me with his performance and his wife is really sharp which has likely saved Ozzie’s arse over the years. They are a prime example of where a ”reality show” has helped their personas and made them relevant again to a new audience.

Sheamus’ Potential: “The continued evolution of Sheamus, the big Irish guy with no last name, is something that I’m enjoying. Hopefully, this build will be consistent and not rushed as it is obvious to me that Sheamus, the big Irish guy with no last name, has marketable potential. I like his size, physicality, and obvious toughness and he also has a strong work ethic and desire to not just be a player to be be a main event player. Sheamus is one of the most intriguing personas in WWE right now for my money. Can you imagine how fast Sheamus would progress if he were managed by a red hot, mouthpiece who was relevant in today’s marketplace?

Kofi Kingston’s Push: “Good to see Kofi Kingston, who’s now from his original homeland, continue to get his at bats. Kofi and Orton represent in ring youth which is a really good thing on which to build. Kofi’s next few months of TV exposure will be crucial in his development as fans seem to be curious as far Kofi can go. I happen to feel that Kofi has a distinctive upside. However, too many stubbed toes or false starts seem to be the kiss of death with many of today’s fans.

JR also talks about DX’s commentary on Raw, what the WWE Divas stand for, a recent phone call with Mene Gene Okerland and more. Visit JRsBarBQ.com to read the whole blog.

    I understand why Kofi has decided to drop the whole Jamaican thing but why have they not yet changed his ring atttire and entrance to match this change in personality.

  2. mr.misery says:

    The reason they haven’t changed his ring attire and entrance is because they say that he has been heavily influenced by the Jamaican lifestlye and culture. Eventually im sure it will change, just like everyone elses’ entrance changes

  3. CactusCody says:

    Sheamus… the powerbomb that made a grown man sound like a platypus in heat.

    For serious, I hope they don’t blow this character, I just think he needs some good attire. I’m thinking a modified Ministry Undertaker outfit, but not as dark. Maybe green and black, with a celtic cross on the back.

    That’d make him a bit less of a laughing stock. Hard to get behind a guy who looks like a ghost with it’s head on fire.
