WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry on his official website. Here are the highlights.

On Roman Reigns vs. Kevin Owens: “Solid main event that was the highlight of the three hour show. Kevin Owens again proved why he was the perfect choice to be the 2nd Universal Champion. KO can work with virtually anyone much akin to AJ Styles over on SD Live. This I know, my mentor Cowboy Bill Watts would have loved booking Kevin Owens.”

On Seth Rollins: “I understand that it’s logical for newly ‘turned’ Seth Rollins to not change overnight but at some point Rollins has got to be a bit more of an attitudinal fan favorite rather than maintaining his established, villain TV persona. Rollins is one of the most gifted athletes in WWE without question and his work has always seemed to be that of a fan favorite to me. Rollins has some random, HBK-like tendencies which are so marketable.”

On CM Punk’s UFC 203 salary: “It never ceases ot amaze me why some fans are so disturbed at the money that @CMPunk earned at UFC 203 in Cleveland Saturday night which was a reported 500K plus what Punk wil earn for all the PPV’s that he sold for the event. The PPV number could easily push Punk’s earnings to in excess of 1M. UFC and Dana White made a brilliant strategical signing of Punk was was signed to provide a much needed buzz to the event coming on the heels of UFC 200 and the McGregor vs Diaz fight. Punk wasn’t signed to make any one forget GSP, for example, but to help market and sell PPV’s of which he did. Plus, Mickey Gall got a great rub and a unique launch to his UFC career as well so it seems that this was a win for everyone in the equation. I’d be surprised if UFC doesn’t find something for Punk to do going forward even though a second fight in UFC would surprise me. Punk is a superb communicator and that night be something that he can migrate to in UFC.”

On Vince McMahon’s recent injury: “Here’s wishing a speedy recovery for WWE Chairman Vince McMahon who underwent surgery Tuesday morning to address an injury he apparently incurred while training in the gym. The injury is allegedly to his quadriceps and knowing VKM he will likely be back in the office this week as well as the gym.”
