Jim Ross Blog: Emma's Arrest, John Cena As A Villain, Chris Jericho Vs. Bray Wyatt, Ronda Rousey
WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with a new blog on jrsbarbq.com. As always, you can purchase JR's BBQ products on WWEshop.com. Here are some highlights from this entry:
- Some fans should be happy that John Cena is going to be cast as a villain in a new Tina Fey/Amy Poehler film. I wonder if the fans that boo Cena today would cheer him tomorrow if he turned heel in WWE? This movie role could also lead to speculation that this current WWE World Title reign for Cena isn't going to be a long one. I'm still guessing Summer Slam will see a new champ crowned.
- Chris Jericho looks physically good and that's thanks to DDP Yoga considering Jericho's massive work load and travel schedule. Bray Wyatt will have a positive experience working with someone new and that's better than him in the immediate future. This is good, strategic booking with the goal to obviously have some entertaining TV but to help Bray continue to grow as a talent.
- Seems as if too many people are jumping to conclusion regarding Emma's arrest for shoplifting. Count me as someone who has forgotten to pay for a small item at a grocery store, etc and then went back in to settle up. My dealings with Emma have been nothing but positive when I was traveling to Orlando and Tampa to work with the young talents. I have no issue giving her the benefit of the doubt in this matter.
- My conversation with @RondaRousey on the Ross Report podcast is getting great feedback from MMA and wrestling fans alike. Ronda is cooler than the other side of the pillow and it was one of the most fun interviews that I've ever done. I will be glued to my TV this Saturday night to watch her defend her Bantamweight title against Alexis Davis at UFC175.
Ross also talks about AJ Styles, battle royals, Bret Hart and more in this entry.
