The other thing I want to do because of my relocation back to Connecticut, which will be complete the week after WrestleMania, is Id actually like to if they would let me be the lead announcer on HEAT. I would actually like to come in and do lead announcing on HEAT every week with Coach and Grisham, who are currently the announcers, as color men for me, so I can continually practice the storyline premise of each match even if we have to make up a story for each one of those matches because theres not always a story for the HEAT match, and practice the give-and-take. Thats the problem with something like this; its not like learning how to shoot free throws in basketball. You can go in your driveway and practice all day. Theres no way to do this but to continually actually do it and practice it. And I cant very well set up wrestling matches in my house and clone King and Coach to sit there and do it with me not to mention who would do that to the world? Who would want to unleash two more of those men on the world?
So, as I said, the big picture of all of this is, I have what should be hopefully now with J.R. guiding me, not a difficult transition or lengthy transition to complete. Certainly, 12 months from now when its time for WrestleMania 23, I fully expect that I will by then have made the transition to quarterback the RAW announce team for WrestleMania 23. But, you know, as I said, initially like anybody else, I was very disappointed because calling WrestleMania has always been my lifelong dream. After that, my ego took over, so I was angry. But theyre sticking with me until I get this and Im going to get this that Ill call many, many WrestleManias in the future.
