Jim Ross Talks Conor McGregor ‘Working’ WWE Stars And More

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

Conor McGregor “working” WWE stars: McGregor has realized that his remarks are often times polarizing and they spread like wildfire. He has become a great, self promoter of his fights and his own enhanced public persona which is not meant to be an insult in any way. To the contrary, fans of pro wrestling should admire that McGregor is a talented talker like many of the pro wrestling greats in history and who knows how to stir up controversy which creates cash more often than not.

It’s somewhat amusing and incredible that some wrestlers who definitely should have known better took McGregor’s bait, hook, line and sinker. I’m curious if they now realize that they have been ‘worked’ in their own genre’s game?

Joey Styles parting ways with WWE: Sad to hear that my friend Joey Styles has left WWE. I know that Joey enjoyed his work there and was a life long WWE fan while growing up in Stamford, CT. I’d love to tag team with Joe on some RINGSIDE Shows in the future plus get him on our podcast too. Joey Styles is a great guy who has plenty to offer.
