Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry on his official web site. Below are the wrestling related highlights from the piece:
– I have no idea if or when eliminated diva Jessica Hatch will be signed by the WWE but I do hear she has the desire to be a WWE diva. I would suggest that she head to Louisville and learn to wrestle and to work on her verbal skills and then watch the negotiation process begin.
– What is the benefit of commenting on a Beth Phoenix vs. Gail Kim match when we both know it is not on the horizon? Both bring different attributes to the table and both are excellent human beings which is too often overlooked.
– I was extremely pleased to see the return of Chris Jericho to Monday Night Raw. The build up and the final presentation was nicely done. The live crowd in Ft. Lauderdale, albeit some what laid back throughout the night at times seemed to come to life when Chris made his appearance. The introduction of any talent is crucial but not as crucial as the plan going forward on a weekly or regular basis. It looks like we may be heading for Jericho vs Orton at Armageddon if I had to make a guess. Jericho is a great addition to the locker room. Of course, being an “old schooler” I don’t believe in bringing any talents, rookies or veterans, into a locker room who are going to be disruptive of which Jericho is definitely not. Chris is a credit to the business.
-Matt Striker’s career, in my opinion, is as a manager and not as a wrestler even though Striker’s mat skills are just fine. It just seems to me that Striker can fill a much needed void as a wrestling manager and become a big time player with the chance to be around for a long time and to not leave the business with the physical ailments that often time plague some grapplers.
– I don’t know if Bobby Lashley will be back for the royal rumble or not as he is still rehabbing his surgically repaired torn labrum. I don’t expect to see Lashley before the first of the year based on how his rehab is progressing. It is a slow process to say the least. Wrestling at the rumble would be great for Lashley and the fans but mother nature and Lashley’s own pain threshold will have a lot to say about when Bobby returns. Lashley’s surgery was a major deal.
– I have always said that the sky is the limit as it relates to Shelton Benjamin’s potential. Shelton now being a part of ECW gives him a chance to get a fresh start and to hopefully realize his potential. Much of that is up to Shelton. We have all seen Shelton do enough in certain bouts to turn our heads and for us to say “wow”. For Shelton to get to the next level he also needs to be heard from on the mic and when that opportunity is presented to him Shelton must deliver.
