Jim Ross Talks About SmackDown Moving To Thursdays

Jim Ross posted his latest blog at JRsBarBQ.com. Here are some highlights:

WWE not airing footage of Daniel Bryan at the San Francisco Giants parade on RAW:

“If Daniel Bryan is being used to promote WM31 locally in Santa Clara why wasn’t his interaction with the world champion San Francisco Giants used on WWE or was it and I missed it? Great footage of exciting folks doing the ‘YES’ chant.”

SmackDown moving to Thursdays:

“WWE moving to Thursdays on SyFy in January isn’t a surprise and I’d go so far as to predict that move will also see a new announce team introduced as well. Michael Cole and JBL, while both doing a fine job, are overexposed and that fact really stands out when the PPV events sound just like Monday Night RAW. Taking Cole and JBL off Smackdown will make them more special and make the PPV’s sound fresher in my opinion.”

His current podcast:

“The Current Ross Report Podcast with guest and HOFer JJ Dillon is spectacular and the feedback that we are getting is amazing on this show. JJ started out, after getting his college degree so that he would always have a plan B, as a commission referee and worked many WWWF bouts as a young man before breaking into the business in the territory days as a wrestler and then as a manager. JJ’s stories of the territory experience are so educational and informative as are his stories of being in administration in the wrestling big including as assistant booker in the Crockett promotion, VP of Talent Relations in WWE, and as an executive in WCW.”
