Jim Ross Praises TNA’s Slammiversary PPV, Talks RAW, Brand Split & More

Jim Ross has posted his latest blog online. Some highlights are below:

On this week’s RW: “Highlight of the night for me was the John Cena-AJ Styles contract signing business. I thought it was well done and both men sounded natural and not ‘memorized.’ Enjoyed Dean Ambrose putting himself in the WWE Title mix at MITB. It’s another viable element that adds to the primary storyline and helps rehab Ambrose TV persona.”

On WWE grooming new stars: “Just my two cents but it doesn’t feel as if there has been better time to ‘break though’ in WWE for any talent not named John Cena or Brock Lesnar who are the two, most ‘over’ talents in WWE IMO. Whatever younger or newer talents can do to make themselves positively stand out and more unique should be done. Suggesting talents take a few risks, tweak their game (which should never stop), and maximize their minutes as never before. Someone has to ‘get over’ so why not you?”

On the WWE brand split’s potential influence on WWE Network: “Thoroughly reviewing the potential upside of a successful, WWE brand spilt and the opportunity to potentially present two, distinctly different TV products to the world, and have come to the conclusion that for stockholders, investors and for the overall growth of the WWE Network that this is potentially the most significant, strategic maneuver that @WWE has enacted in decades. They have an opportunity to launch another, new feeling brand, create their own competition and open the doors to better highlight and promote more new talents.”

On TNA Slammiversary: “Hearing out of #Orlando that the money woes within TNA are still rearing its ugly head. This comes on the heels of an alleged diminished TV production crew, talents and staff delivering about as good a PPV as TNA can under the circumstances. Considering the negativity flying around this brand by outside influences, I’m proud of the way the talents rose to the occasion at Slammiversary Sunday night. The roster has lots of character. Hats off to them.”
