JR Blogs: Bret Hart's WWE Return, 2010 Wish List, MMA, More
Jim Ross has a new blog entry up at JrsBarBQ.com; here are the highlights?
On His 2010 Wish List: If I had a holiday wish list for the year 2010 for the wrestling business it would include; more bell to bell content, the efficient use of time limits in wrestling bouts, the better utilization of tag teams, the re-introduction of wrestling managers if the proper individuals are selected for those roles. What is old becomes new again to many fans and for baby boomer's who actually have the money to spend for PPV's. I feel these Boomer's want to relive the glory days of wrestling when the bulk of the stories were told in the ring and not with poorly executed backstage scenes with athletes attempting to be either comedians or dramatic thespians with any formal training or preparation time. Talents should be encouraged to be enhanced versions of themselves but that's just one guy's opinion.
On Bret Hart: I will be interested to see how, or not, the Bret Hart returning to WWE issue will be addressed on Raw, or not, or if it actually occurs as many of us hope. I think it is a lock that we see the "Hitman" in early 2010 but that could simply be my wishful thinking.
On Tribute To The Troops: WWE TV personnel and the talents should feel proud of their efforts and the finished product of the "Tribute to the Troops" presentation that aired Saturday night on NBC. It was really a classy broadcast and without question had a powerful message of support for our fighting men and women.
On MMA Star King Mo Almost Signing With WWE: King Mo Lawal was once recruited by Jerry Brisco for WWE and came close to signing a few years ago as best as I can recall. The former OSU wrestler had/has lots of charisma and one can assume that Mo will end up in pro wrestling once his MMA days have concluded.
