RAW To 3 Hours Update, Kane Underrated, ROH/WWE
Jim Ross has his latest blog entry up. Highlights are below.
On Mick Foley: I don't know Mick Foley's plans for this year but I never see Mick wrestling anything resembling a full time schedule again. I do see Mick continuing to devote much of his time to the many charitable events he does. Mick can and does add to any TV show he is appearing on, especially if he is involved in a personal issue that allows for Mick to be his "Cactus Jack-like" old self.
On watching ROH and other promotions: My work schedule with WWE travel, RAW and other WWE projects, plus our major investment in opening our restaurant takes up most of my time and therefore I do not watch Ring of Honor or really any other wrestling product to any significant degree, other than the company who pays me.
On Kane: Kane may go down in history as one of the more underrated WWE superstars ever in the eyes of many fans. Any company could only wish they could sign more individuals of character, talent, and ability as Kane?..as long as he doesn't set any more announcer's on fire!
On RAW going to 3 hours: Have I heard the rumor of Raw going to 3 hours this fall? Yes, I have heard the rumor, which is all it is at this point. All that means to me is more work and a longer time between bathroom breaks. I have no issue if Raw goes to 3 hours or not.
On adding more titles: I suggest that too many titles waters all the titles down. With that said, I feel that the ECW brand needs to establish one title for now and make it mean all it can. And no, I am not for reinstating the "Hardcore Title" on any brand.
On DDP: I have not heard from DDP in years but I know he is still into yoga and living, last I heard, in the Los Angeles area. I always loved his passion, as he defied the odds and made it in the business, after getting started, I believe, in his early 30's.
