WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with his latest blog where he talks about the recent WWE releases and more. You can check out the full entry here along with some highlights below.

Brooklyn Brawler’s release:

Surprised to hear of Steve Lombardi aka The Brooklyn Brawler and WWE no longer doing business together after a 30+ year professional relationship. Brawler was always great to work with while I was in WWE and I hope that he lands on his feet at the tender, young age of 55. Steve  has likely got a helluva WWE related book in him if he choose to write one as he was in the company through it all. When I contacted Brawler he was in good spirits and he was positive which was refreshing.

Thoughts on The Club:

The presentation currently in place for Anderson and Gallows needs a little juice but the talents can do something about that with their in ring performances consistently kicking ass and thus earning more special and favorable creative development. The faction name of “The Club” will have to grow on me.

The Club…the Bullet Club is not over within the WWE Universe….yet.

AJ Styles is as good in the ring as anyone in wrestling right now for my money. Great hire by WWE and AJ has been utilized well IMO.

Adam Rose’s recent issues:

Ray Leppan is not a bad person but he’s seemingly in a bad place that merits our positive thoughts. Ray has a special needs son which in itself should encourage wise decision by the head of the household but that hasn’t been the case recently. My sincere wish is for the Leppan family to learn from this situation,move on positively and to galvanize with one another. This isn’t about one’s pro wresting career but instead it’s about the head of the household making good decisions and caring for his family.

Ray being suspended indefinitely by WWE was expected after teh domestic battery arrest. WWE did what they had to do without question.

  1. Always nice to hear JR’s take on things… with Dusty Rhodes having passed on, there is no one I would want in my back office more that JR if I had one…
