Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry online. Check out the highlights:
On Mauro Ranallo becoming the new voice of SmackDown: “Congrats to my pal Mauro Ranallo for nabbing the lead Smackdown broadcaster role beginning in January when Smackdown moves to the USA Network. Mauro is a great broadcaster who will immediately enhance the sound of SD and make fort more unique audio especially if he’s paired with Jerry Lawler and Booker T. Excellent hire by WWE and I wish my friend a wonderful run in WWE. I couldn’t be happier for all involved.”
On the WWE TLC main event: “Sheamus and Reigns went strong style in the WWE Title Match with TLC Rules. I’d certainly hope that logic prevails and neither wrestle tonight especially if Reigns is forced to wrestle in a handicap match for punishment which seems to be worn thin. The post match execution and presentation focusing on an outraged animal, Reigns, was the best Roman has arguably ever looked as a fan favorite. Hopefully, Reigns won’t wrestle tonight on Raw especially in the handicap, punishment matches that are often used or made to do any long promos on Raw. Think Eastwood, a badass dude who lets his actions do most of the talking.”
On interrupting the Kickoff Show match: “Can’t understand why it’s unnecessary to interrupt a match like Sasha Banks vs Becky Lynch in the pre-show. Takes the fans right out of the moment when leaving the action for more network promos. It’s jut illogical and not fan friendly.”
