JR Blog: Jim Ross talks about Triple H vs Brock and more
JR took to his blog jrsbarbq.com recently where he posted a few crucial points about RAW this week and the road to WrestleMania. Here are a few highlights.
Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar: “Starting the show off with Mr. McMahon, Paul Heyman, Brock Lesnar and HHH will be hard to top this week but I’m anxious to see how WWE sets the stage for the much anticipated three hour broadcast that will obviously be focused on WM29.”
Road to WrestleMania: “I always looked at these last few Road to WrestleMania shows like an athlete competing in the playoffs. Nothing but one’s absolute best will do no matter one’s assignment or the segment in which they appear. Every role is important and any one with a “business as usual” mindset needs a heart to heart talk.”
This Monday’s RAW: “I expect Monday’s RAW to have ample amounts of ‘surprise’ elements, particularly with some of the returning old school talents and how they are utilized and a definitive feel as to what we can expect to experience at WM29. In addition, thanks to some of the ‘Legends’ in attendance, I would expect to see some, hopefully, timely humor infused into the show. What will be the proverbial water cooler talk regarding #Raw come Tuesday morning?
“Whoever wrestles in the main event of the evening will have huge shoes to fill following last week’s John Cena vs. CM Punk instant classic.”
JR had a lot more to say in his recent blog, and you can read the entire entry here.
Tomorrow’s old school RAW is expecting the Undertaker to make his first appearance this year. In addition to this, several legends are returning to the ring, including the likes of Ric Flair, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, SGT Slaughter etc. It will also be interesting to see how WWE takes forward the bout between Cena and Rock, not to forget the importance of the other mid-card and undercard bouts that need to be set up for WrestleMania.
