WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with his latest blog where he talks about Clash of Champions and more. You can check out the full entry here along with some highlights below.
Fans booing Roman Reigns: “Is it obvious that some fans are merely booing Roman Reigns because they think that it is the ‘thing to do’ based on what they hear on TV? In the heartland of America in Indianapolis, Indiana an American (Reigns) wrestling for the United States Title versus a Bulgarian, I.E. a non American, is booed by the vocal, defiant, mostly young male demo which reeks of overt, attention seekers.”
Wrestlers kicking out of finishers: “I do not understand the fascination of kicking out of other’s finishers to the degree that we often see on a variety of pro wrestling broadcasts these days. The same basic emotion can be created using other match elements that are NOT established finishers that is if ‘established finishers’ is even a relevant term these days in the genre.”
Cesaro’s high risk move at Clash of Champions: “Cesaro took an unnecessary chance/risk with the suicide tope, head first dive through the ropes, to only end up spiking himself on the floor which could have broken his neck. Apparently, Cesaro dodged a massive bullet in this exchange that had zero bearing on the narrative of the bout. If men and women in the business continue to take unnecessary risks, we can all but guarantee that someone is going to sustain a serious injury sooner than later due to the volume of these unneeded, high risk/small reward bumps.
Some people just don’t like Roman that much.
Actually these people just want to use the show to try to attract attention on themselves rather than the wrestlers
