WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross talks Triple H vs. Brock Lesner, the new emphasis on tag teams in WWE, and fires a shot at elitist media types who mock wrestling but borrow its style
Jun 20, 2012 - 02:51 PM


WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross updated the blog section of JRsbarbq.com. The following items are among the highlights. To order J.R.'s BBQ products, visit WWEShop.com.

-Ross on Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar: "IF Lesnar vs. HHH happens at Summerslam, and I hope that it will, it will be a stellar attraction that will be fresh and not too likely to ever happen again. The bell to bell of this potential main event really has my interest and I'm intrigued to see how this matter plays out between now and August 19."

-Ross on new emphasis on tag teams in WWE: "Obviously, steps are being taken to make the tag team scene in WWE more meaningful but that still won't be good enough for some keyboard warriors who will continue to squeal ala Ned Beatty in 'Deliverance' or the proverbial pig stuck under a gate. It will take time to rebuild something with little, current equity but I'm of the mindset that it can and will be done but that it will not happen over night."

Shore's Slant: Call me piggy I guess. When I see sustained effort put into the division, then I will care again. Two moments is not a pattern, it's an anomaly.

-Ross on the main stream media and wrestling: "Love how some in main stream sports love to knock the genre of sports entertainment yet shows like ESPN's 'First Take' is nothing more than an elongated, promo segment between a villain manager, Skip Bayless, and his 'arch rival,' Stephen A Smith. The role of Mean Gene is played by Jay Crawford. Don't take this as a diss of the show as I'm a regular viewer but main stream sports entities generally do all they can to distance themselves from 'pro wrestling' even though they use regularly elements from the business in this programming. "

Shore's Slant: Bravo, JR. Bravo

Other topics include more on Triple H and Lesnar and the MSM and wrestling; plus Kane, AJ, Paul Heyman and much more.
