If there was a Mount Rushmore for pro wrestling cities, Chicago and New York would be on there. After that, it's debatable.
Jim RossAll that I can say about Owen Hart, is that I hope that I can be, as good a man as him, so that I can see him again, someday.
Jim RossNice to see Christian return as he's been on the injured list for months. 'Captain Charisma' is due to have a big 2011. Very skilled, underrated talent.
Jim RossIs there a better wrestling villain on TV these days than CM Punk? Arguable question but for my sauce, Punk is right there at the top of the heap with a handful of his peers.
Jim RossMichael Cole does not deserve to be piled on like many are doing. He deserves respect. Michael is fulfilling a role on a fictional, TV show. He has been 'cast' to play this role as best as he can. For those that have never sat in that particular seat, let me assure you that it isn't easy. Cole's new persona must be working because never before have so many fans, for better or for worse, commented on Cole's work.
Jim RossI do have high expectations for Alex Riley. He seems athletic, articulate and intelligent. Only time will tell how far he goes, but Riley has bonafide potential. FCW did a nice job of preparing Alex for WWE. Alex's future success is largely up to Alex.
Jim RossAs long as any pro wrestling we see on the TV screen doesn't insult my intelligence and can continually use common sense, basic logic and the presentation, I am pretty cool with it.
Jim RossThe faster some talents work, the more risk plays into the equation and then the opportunities for injury increases.
Jim RossCutting to the chase, I don't see Sting in WWE any time soon and especially not in the ring vs. the Undertaker in the Georgia Dome. I do think that Sting would be well served to explore potential marketing opportunities with WWE especially considering that all his 'greatest hits' which were in WCW are now owned by WWE.
Jim RossAre you wrestling faster than the audience can process? The answer to that question is often times yes. If that is true, then you are failing.
Jim RossCena, love him or not, connects with the ticket buying public better than any one in the biz. End of story.
