WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is back with his latest blog where he gives his thoughts on Brock Lesnar’s return to UFC and more. You can check out the full entry here along with some highlights below.
Brock Lesnar vs. Mark Hunt:
The Brock Lesnar to UFC 200 continues to get significant coverage in various forms of media and is proving to be what we reported here a few days ago as a win/win for all involved. Great media presence, a huge payday for one of WWE’s most coveted talents, a PPV selling attraction for U/FC and a fight that is intriguing because it all but guaranteed that someone is going to go to sleep.
And the MMA world knows that well could be WWE Superstar and ‘former’ UFC star Brock Lesnar taking the nap. Will Lesnar be a heel or not when he enters the Octagon. For the record, Lesnar could care less about that matter I’m thinking. He’d likely allow the boos to motivate him.
Seth Rollins becoming a fan favorite:
Seth Rollins is starting to evolve as a fan favorite which may not be the WWE plan at this time. My gut says to go with it.
Thoughts on Raw:
The amount of talk within RAW may have taken a little of the air out ot the live audience but my wife attended the show live and enjoyed herself.
Sometime it is challenging to balance the right amount of comedy/talk vs in ring action and the audience generally dictates what they are buying and what they aren’t.
