Jim Ross Blogs On Bragging Rights, Lawler For Mayor, Snoop Dogg
Jim Ross has a new blog entry up, here are the highlights:
On The Bragging Rights Main Event: So Bragging Rights will have a 7 on 7 tag featuring SD vs. Raw, not the video game, superstars....thanks for coming ECW. :) By the looks of the Raw 7 and who from SD are already obligated in a Fatal Four Way, Undertaker, Batista, Rey Mysterio and C.M. Punk, one could surmise that the Raw team is loaded and heavily favored.....much like Texas is against the Sooners on Saturday.
On Jerry Lawler Running For Mayor: Jerry Lawler's efforts to become Mayor of Memphis culminates this Thursday with the elections in The King's hometown. I know that Jerry has worked diligently in his campaign on little funds but his journey has become particularly an uphill one for him the past several weeks. I have read where some locals in Memphis feel that the city will never elect another Caucasian Mayor due to the fact that the city is 70% African American. I don't know if that is a true statement or not but race should not play a factor in electing one's political leaders but, as most know, it sometimes does. I think the Memphis news media honestly wants a "politician" to be elected Mayor as it may make for better copy as the good, old boy system will be perpetuated which always makes for a potentially good headline. Better "dirt" if you will.
On Miz vs. Morrison: I did like the news of a Bragging Rights bout between Miz and Morrison which assume will not feature either's championship. This should be an excellent match especially if the mat aspect of it is a focused. Nice addition to the PPV from Pittsburgh which is one of my favorite towns in addition to being the wife's hometown. I wonder how many more WWE events will be held in the old, Igloo aka Mellon Arena, before the new place is completed. Probably not too many
On Snoop Dogg Hosting Raw: Snoop Dogg is the host next week and Snoop is really a cool guy who "gets it" and is a legit fan. Too bad that I won't be there to see him in person.....poor me. I assume that Snoop will interact with Santino, which might be funny, and the talented Chris Jericho. What if Snoop is a closet Smackdown fan and makes the Raw fan favorites life a little uncomfortable Monday night?
