WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his blog, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Here’s what Ross said about:
Jesse Ventura Hosting Raw: “Jesse Ventura did an excellent job as guest general manager … Jesse looked good, had his usual distinctive, great delivery and, for me, created an interest in checking out his new “Conspiracy Theory” program that debuts soon on truTV. Ventura and McMahon was a fun trip down memory lane and they were, perhaps, the 2nd best broadcast team to appear on Monday Night Raw in a good while as in the summer of ‘08. Just one man’s totally biased opinion. I would have been happy to have flown in and produced the two wrestling legends.”
Sheamus’ Push: “Sheamus has found himself in a great spot to help begin building his long term foundation in WWE. I read where some pundits felt the incident between the young Irishman and John Cena was “flat.” I disagree. Obviously, the crowd sitting in their seats over three hours is challenging, has an influence but isn’t the real reason. However, let’s all remember that Sheamus hasn’t been on Raw in any significant role for, what, a month, 5 weeks? Sheamus has not even been in a long term personal issue with a main event, Raw wrestler yet…until now. Bottom line is that Sheamus’ persona is still evolving and the next two weeks and then TLC is highly important to Sheamus’ development. At worst, the WWE has made a new, fresh main event for a PPV and from where I sit that is a good thing.”
The Rock Saying He’d Work With WWE Again: “I would bet a 6 Pak Challenge and throw in a case of BBQ Sauce that those remarks don’t mean that Dwayne is thinking about wrestling again. I do not see that occurring but his appearances could mean an unlimited number of other things that don’t include putting on the tights. Time will tell.”

Jesse Ventura started something revolutionary and respectful, raised the glass roof and included new blood to the title hunt into the WWE. Randy Orton nearly ruined it with his ego hunt for the title when he backed out AGAIN on his word. It was great see Ventura and Vinnie Mac in the broadcast booth again. The only thing I found troubling was in the end, was when he questioned Cena’s integrity. Cena, a man who was known for taking it to the roughest of men and crowds, was criticized for having it way too easy. Other way around. It’s people like HHH, Michaels, Orton, Y2J, and the veterens who have been hogging the spotlight. It was someone like Cena that brought new blood into the spotlight. What you did “Governor” is given more fuel for the Cena-haters to use against him and make his odds against Sheamus, who’s a terrific young wrestler, at TLC that much tougher. If you want cred for your show, concentrate on your nemesis Hogan or Vinnie Mac or Jeff Jarrett, who definitely deserve some criticism. Not on one who is breaking new ground in the business.
John Cena isn’t breaking any new ground. He is Hulk Hogan part 2 and not in a good way. I see your comments on here all the time. HE CAN’T WRESTLE. He is super stiff and has been there for over 8 years. Someone doesn’t practice. BTW, leave Randy Orton alone. He’s carrying the WWE.
Dude glassman do you think wrestling is real or something? Jesse ventura didn’t do anything. The writers told him what to do. Randy’s “Ego” is story line created. It was storyline to discredit his intergrity…thats what a Heel CHARACTER is wreslting does lol
I can see that. Attacking and threatening GM guests, disrespecting the MacMahons by putting them in the hospital, ending careers as a norm for Orton. Yeah, leo, Orton really carrying the WWE, LIKE HE GIVES A DAMN!
to Topoly28 thats exactly what i was thinking lol
