WWE News Jim Ross comments on Ozzy Osbourne's appearance on WWE Raw, takes a jab at the catchphrase WWE is using for the Divas, questions whether a manager could help a new WWE wrestler By Jason Powell Nov 3, 2009 - 04:45 PM Email This Article | Printer Friendly Page Send Us News & Results | Back to Main Listing WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross updated the blog section of JRsbarbq.com. The following items are among the highlights. -Ross on Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne hosting Monday's WWE Raw: "I liked Ozzie and Sharon Osbourne's role on Raw Monday night. It wasn't overkill and it played to their strengths. Ozzie, honestly, pleasantly surprised me with his performance and his wife is really sharp which has likely saved Ozzie's arse over the years. They are a prime example of where a 'reality show' has helped their personas and made them relevant again to a new audience." Powell's POV: Very true regarding the reality show helping Ozzy and making the rest of his family stars. Ozzy was a lot of fun last night, and Sharon had some fun exchanges with the wrestlers. They both appeared to have a good time and that makes it easy for the viewer to enjoy the show. -Ross on the WWE Divas: "It's easy to see that the WWE Divas are 'smart, sexy and powerful' but what else good do they represent? Just curious." Powell's POV: That catchphrase is so forced and annoying. It doesn't help when the announcers deliver it like they're reading it from a cue card more often than not. -Ross on Sheamus: "The continued evolution of Sheamus, the big Irish guy with no last name, is something that I'm enjoying. Hopefully, this build will be consistent and not rushed as it is obvious to me that Sheamus, the big Irish guy with no last name, has marketable potential. I like his size, physicality, and obvious toughness and he also has a strong work ethic and desire to not just be a player to be be a main event player. Sheamus is one of the most intriguing personas in WWE right now for my money. Can you imagine how fast Sheamus would progress if he were managed by a red hot, mouthpiece who was relevant in today's marketplace?" Powell's POV: J.R. is an advocate for the use of pro wrestling managers. I believe it was around this time last year that he was calling for WWE to give Vladimir Kozlov a manager. We can only wonder whether Kozlov would be better off right now had Vince McMahon read that suggestion and taken it to heart.
