WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with a new blog entry on his JRSBARBQ.com website. In the blog, Ross discusses WrestleMania 32, Triple H vs. Roman Reigns and more. Here are some highlights:
On RAW: “RAW/Brooklyn..the live audience picked their spots to be sure throughout the 3 hour marathon. I felt bad for the 6 man tag with IC Title and company and the live audience seemed to disconnect early in the process. That was unfortunate or all involved including us watching at home. The show as a whole seemed to lack some spark/sizzle considering [it] was the last RAW shot before Sunday’s Wrestlemania Texas extravaganza at AT&T Stadium. Perhaps I simply had a long day and it was. Shane/Taker content was enjoyable to watch and they gave the audience a hearty sample of what we’re likely to see Sunday night. I still say that these two will exceed expectations in their human demolition derby. I think Taker will win but WWE could throw a curve ball at everyone too. How intriguing would this match have been if Taker was still undefeated at Wrestlemania’s? Today, Taker’s loss to Lesnar means what??
On Eva Marie’s crowd heat: “Does Eva Marie have heel heat or is it actually ‘go away’ heat? Time will tell and I’m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt until she gets a few more chances. If she can execute as a true villain, she has the chance to be special personality. I’m being serious.”
On the crowd reaction to Roman Reigns: “Loved the spirit that HHH, Stephanie and Reigns had in their scenes together but getting the audience to cheer Roman Reigns isn’t simply going to happen any time soon so why continue to go against the grain? Wth that ‘over statement of the obvious’ being said, it appears to me that WWE/McMahon is sitting ripe and ready to add a ‘swerve’ to the equation Sunday. The setting is perfect for a double turn, etc including Mr McMahon involvement.”
