Jim Ross Blog: Which Match Will Close HIAC, Most Well-Rounded Performer Ever

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has updated his blog, which you can read in its entirety at JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

Which Match Will Close HIAC: 

“Who needs to close the show Sunday in Dallas at HIAC? An argument can be made for the two young guys, Rollins & Ambrose, which will help them establish more credibility on the main event level of which Cena and Orton already have. There are two valid sides to this argument.”

The Most Well-Rounded Performer Ever:

“Paul Heyman and Jim Cornette will always be two of my all time favorite performers whether it be wrestlers, managers or broadcasters but because of his ability to bump and uncanny timing and in ring psychology no one will likely ever top Bobby Heenan. The Brain is arguably the greatest multi faceted wrestling start ever when it comes to doing more things well than any one that I’ve ever seen in person.”

There’s much more to this blog, including JR talking about how to become an announcer in WWE, his PodcastOne.com podcast and more.

Dean Ambrose Talks About WWE Injuries Creating Opportunity For Him, Being Compared To Legends

Dean Ambrose was recently interviewed by Sam Roberts, here are some highlights of what he said about:

Daniel Bryan & Roman Reigns’ Injuries Creating An Opportunity For Him:

“Injuries are always unfortunate and sometimes if things are spread a little thinner, you might have to put more work on your plate that night because the show must go on. I’m not trying to take anyone’s spot in the business. I’m trying to have my own spot that no one can take because it’s my spot, it’s my thing. I’m trying to do my thing, not really worried about where everybody else is. But stuff happens and you just have to roll with the punches. It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there and there’s only so much screen time on a Monday Night RAW. So when the herd gets a little thinner, you got to step up and take the responsibility of it. In some ways we’re all on the same team here, we’re trying to entertain the world and put on a hell of a show every night.”

Being Compared To Brian Pillman, Steve Austin and Others:

“I’ve watched so much wrestling and studied everybody that I don’t pattern myself off anyone particularly, or trying to fill any particular role. I’m just a weird mismatch of a million different styles and influences and experience. I really don’t know what’s going to happen when I go out there. What you see is what you get and you might get a different thing on a different night, every night. I’m trying to make my own spot.”

John Cena is branching has signed a development deal with Leftfield Pictures (“Pawn Stars”) to develop unscripted reality TV shows, according to a report by Variety.

According to Cena, the first concept revolves “mostly around unknown individuals from all walks of life with compelling stories to tell.” Cena was inspired to create stories around real people because “there’s a lot more opportunity in reality to package lives the way they already are.”

Cena and Leftfield Pictures have several ideas in the works. “We have a few already in the pipeline, a few irons in the fire,” said Cena. There was no mention of Cena appearing on camera for the first show, but it’s an option in the future.

The developmental deal does not currently involve WWE, although there is an option for the company to participate in projects should they choose to.

Leftfield CEO Brent Montgomery described Cena as one of the “aggressive entrepreneurs looking for creative ways to reach new markets and tell compelling, unconventional stories” they typically work with.

    Kenny Omega Calls Bob Holly A Bully, Talks WWE Developmental, TNA Style Of Wrestling

    The following are highlights of an Under The Mat radio interview with Kenny Omega:

    On his time in WWE Developmental: “I went there and it was like really grueling physical training we were training to be MMA fighters not professional wrestlers (laughter). I liked it and enjoyed it because that’s the kind of training that I like to do. The problem with Deep South to me is that there was a group that were tight with the boss and they would always go out and drink and have barbeques. Then when WWE would say who should we look at? Bill Demott would say oh look at this guy and this guy. Of course those were his buddies….”

    On Bob Holly being a bully: “We had guests come in at times like Benoit (Chris), William Regal, Dean Malenko, and Bob Holly would come and kick our ass. I don’t know what the guy problem was he was always grumpy. I remember one time he (Holly) got mad at one of the guys and kept punching him in the face…”

    On how he thinks the Japanese fan base wouldn’t like TNA style of wrestling: “Not to knock TNA but there’s too much hokey talking and segments that don’t really involve wrestling. Of course everyone in TNA speaks English so if there’s an angle going on they won’t be able to understand it. TNA has a talented roster but when I looked at it seems as if everyone was rushing it’s like the time is given to the talking and when it happens in the ring everyone rushes to the finish. In Japan it’s the opposite when you talk make it quick and tell your story in the match.”

    The following are highlights of the latest Jim Ross blog:

    On Dean Ambrose: “Up and down week as it relates to some of the creative for Dean Ambrose who has been building his TV persona well the past few weeks. I thought Ambrose leveled out or took a step back somewhat Monday night.”

    On Hell In A Cell: “I still think that creativity as it relates to stunts, etc for this Sunday’s HIAC will be challenging considering that there will be two Hell in a Cell matches on the show both in a PG world. Anxious to see how the creative minds come up with elements that will make the two main events special, different and perceived as ‘dangerous.'”

    On mid-card champions losing: “Again the IC and the US Title holders lost on the WWE’s franchise broadcast which is a head scratcher especially as it downgrades their top two, regularly seen titles notwithstanding it does then on televised live events no favors. As I’ve mentioned on the Ross Report Podcast it seems as if holding the IC and US titles is a curse to the titleholders. I can’t explain this particular creative. Hopefully it will change sooner than later. Having meaningless titles is illogical.”

    • Stephanie McMahon Talks WWE’s New Domestic Violence Policy, Total Divas

    WWE’s Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon recently spoke to Yahoo! Sports about a number of topics including WWE’s updated domestic abuse policy, and the reports that Vince McMahon does not want a Total Divas cast members to hold the Divas Championship.

    Several weeks ago, Total Divas cast member Cameron appeared on Chris Jericho’s Talk Is Jericho podcast and said:

    “The whole thing we have been fighting is being on the show [means] not being able to have a chance at the title.”

    Stephanie McMahon denies what Cameron said, noting that there is no policy in place about Total Divas cast members not being able to compete for the Divas Championship.

    “Absolutely not. I honestly don’t even know how that rumor got started.”

    “There is no policy. I think it would be awesome to have one of the Total Divas as our champion. I think it would drive interest in the storyline. I would never say never.”

    Stephanie also said this about WWE’s new domestic violence policy:

    “We have a zero tolerance policy for domestic abuse. Upon arrest for such misconduct, our Superstars are immediately suspended and should there be a conviction, that Superstar or Diva would be terminated.”

    Regarding WWE’s competition, Stephanie says WWE is “such a unique hybrid” with no other sports or entertainment products that are just like them.

    “I think competition is always healthy, but what we look at as competition is everything out there – all entertainment and sports programming because we really are such a unique hybrid – there’s nothing like us in the world. Monday Night Football is a competitor to Monday Night Raw. Yes, I think competition is incredibly healthy, no matter where it comes from… We always try to be strategic in terms of having our best content on when we know the most fans are available to watch (against MNF Halftime).”

    Mick Foley Blogs About His RAW Return, Acknowledges Mistakes He Made On-Air

    WWE Hall Of Famer Mick Foley, who made a surprise return on Monday’s WWE Hell In A Cell “go-home” edition of RAW in Kansas City, posted the following blog about his experience on his official Facebook page.

    YOU PROVED ME WRONG!

    Just two weeks’s ago, following the electrifying live appearance of The Rock on #RAW, I was asked on social media when I’d be showing up. I replied that I wasn’t really in that league any more (the small list of legends who can make an instant impact with an appearance) and that I was more of a panel discussion guy, or a Hall of Famer who shows up to present an award, or appear in a backstage vignette. I wasn’t feeling sorry for myself either. I just honestly felt like that ship had sailed – and that I was no longer on board.

    Well, last night, you proved me wrong! The whole scenario just seemed to make perfect sense, and I was able to feed off the energy of Ambrose, Rollins and a very appreciative Kansas City crowd to take part in something that felt special; something that left me feeling good – basking in the memories of the moment, and the amazing feedback from family, friends and fans. I felt like a kid who had gotten everything he’d asked for on Christmas. Sure, I made some mistakes. It was actually 18 years ago yesterday that I faced The Undertaker in “Buried Alive”, not “Not Hell in a Cell” which was two years later, and I misquoted Nietzsche…but who among us hasn’t done that?

    Speaking of Christmas, how about that “flannel over Santa” look, marking the 300th consecutive day I’ve worn Santa Claus themed attire. Only 65 days left in this Foley fashion quest.

    Realistically, what role would you like to see me play in WWE moving forward? I’ve got some ideas. Let me hear yours.

    Thanks to all of you who have supported my live shows. There may be nothing like the adrenaline rush of a hot promo on live TV, but telling my tales across the country, and the world, is a close second. You can catch me TOMORROW in #Cornwall ON, Thursday & Friday on #Ottawa, then #QuebecCity for a combined Comic Con signing and live show on Saturday.

    NOVEMBER is looking to be a HUGE month for me, with #HardcoreLegend shows in #BROOKLYN #CHICAGO/#ROSEMONT & #PEORIA IL, #PROVIDENCE #MARIETTA & #CINCINNATI (Newport, KY) OH, #NASHVILLE & #MEMPHIS TN #ROME & #ATLANTA GA, and signings in #Rahway NJ & #GAFFNEY SC.

    WWE’s ability to fine, suspend or terminate a WWE talent will not be, however, limited or compromised in any manner in the event incontrovertible evidence of such illegal misconduct is presented to WWE.

    NICKELODEON TEAMS UP WITH WWE® TO AIR WWE SLAM CITY™ ON NICKTOONS’ NICKSPORTS TV BLOCK

    STAMFORD, Conn., October 21, 2014 – WWE (NYSE: WWE) and Nickelodeon today announced that WWE Slam City™, WWE’s kids property that includes an original animated short-form series, will debut tomorrow night during the NickSports programming block from 9–11 p.m. (ET) on Nicktoons.

    WWE NXT star Baron Corbin recently spoke with Alex Obert of the Journey of a Frontman website. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

    His Re-Debut at NXT Takeover 2 & Establishing His Character

    “Billy Gunn, Bill DeMott and Dusty Rhodes all helped me find myself and how to express it to people so they understand. I know that I’ve played with a few other characters that I thought fit me. When I sat down with Bill and Billy and Dusty, as well as Corey Graves, they had conversations with me about what am I into and what are the things I do. They wanted to know how that would relate to what I’m gonna do in the ring and how to translate that so that people understand this is who I am. You look at me, you see the tattoos and I ride a motorcycle. So how do we fit those things into who I am? There’s past endeavors including being a three-time Golden Glove Champion, we want people to understand that when I punch somebody, it’s gonna hurt. ”

    How He Developed His End of Days Finisher:

    “I watched a lot of wrestling and I started to watch a lot of Japanese-style. They do things a little differently. A guy here named Solomon Crowe, we were trying to think of something that would be devastating and original and we mixed some things I’d seen from some of the Japanese footage I watched. It’s something that requires a lot of strength. I know a lot of people can’t do it and won’t try it. That allowed me to stand out. End of Days is a lot of impact, it makes people open their eyes. It makes a statement. ”

    His Experience Wrestling at NXT:

    “I work pretty much every single live event. It gives me an opportunity to work with different people and see what they bring to the table. We want to put on an entertaining match and see who comes out the victor. I get to bounce around with different people and it keeps me on my toes because someone might surprise me with something. I want to know how I’m gonna react to that and it makes me always be prepared. That’s for sure. On recent live events, I’ve faced names such as Elias Sampson and Bull Dempsey. I’ve also faced CJ a few times. It kind of just varies all the time. I’ve been here for a little while now and I’ve had opportunities to work with Tyler Breeze and Sami at Wrestlemania Axxess. All of those opportunities just go into building me and my ability. ”

    His Message To The Fans:

    “Hold on tight. I think that I’m gonna make an impact that will open a lot of eyes. And I’ve only started. I’m gonna make a lot of people really question what they just saw. I don’t get paid by the hour, I go out there and get it done and get out. That’s the way I want it to be. Just hold on tight because this is gonna be a killer ride.”

    Details On The “Fan” Rusev Knocked Out On RAW

    On Monday’s RAW, Rusev got a ton of heat by nearly kicking the head off of a “fan” who jumped in the ring while he was about to tear down the American flag. For those who have emailed in and Tweeted us asking about the angle, the military serviceman was a “plant” hired by WWE.

    Correspondents who were at the show say that the “soldier” was not sitting ringside until right before the Rusev segment, which is typically how WWE handles angles with planted actors. The security guy who attempted to restrain the soldier before he got kicked by Rusev actually let him jump the ringside barricade before following him into the ring.

    It was also mentioned by some of our followers that the soldier was not wearing the proper Army uniform, since his American flag was on the wrong sleeve. This is apparently something that’s done on TV and in movies all the time, since there is a law that prohibits someone acting in a TV show from wearing the official uniform.
