JR Blog: Stone Cold DVD Update, Cena vs. Punk at SummerSlam, More

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with a new blog over on jrsbarbq.com. Here are some highlights:

 


 

– It’s always a rush to get back in the environment that I am most comfortable and that’s the world of WWE on ‘game day’ aka the day of a live, TV shoot. The energy level is infectious the day of a live show and hard to replicate. It’s a significant part of my DNA and I’m happy to be back working on Monday Night Raw.

– Three man announce teams are challenging no matter the talents involved or the product in which they are broadcasting. Now that King, Cole and I have gotten our collective feet wet, things will naturally evolve.

– John Cena and CM Punk meet in the Raw main event at Summer Slam to determine the undisputed WWE Champion and I’m anxious to see how they follow the match that they had in Chicago at MITB where Punk won. The Staples Center crowd will be challenged to rise to the occasion as the hometown crowd did for Punk that helped make the MITB match so memorable.

– BTW I talked to @steveaustinBSR today and we will be narrating, I think, three bouts that the ‘Rattlesnake’ has selected for his new DVD. I’m not sure of what bouts that we will be doing but I think that they will all be Wrestlemania bouts. Steve and I will be attempting to provide a very unique perspective to the fans regarding the mindset, strategy, emotions, etc of these big match moments. I’m really looking forward to doing this project and hopefully getting a peek at the rough cut of the DVD which I think is going to be exceptional.

– Is Mark Henry PG? I’d say absolutely. Aggression can exceed PG, obviously, but I don’t recall seeing any thing that the World’s Strongest Man has done that has taken physicality ‘over the line.’ Henry’s recent positioning on Smackdown has impressed me as being sound utilization of the veterans skill set.
