Jim Ross blogs about sheamus as champion, WWE superstars with longest tenures



Former WWE announcer Jim Ross published his latest blog on his website JRbarBQ.com. he wrote about many things.


He says WWE has to do a lot work on Sheamus as Champion:

"WWE has lots of work to do to get Sheamusin a position so that he can pass the title alongat the right place, at the right time to the right person. The hotter WWE can make Sheamus the more it wil mean when he loses the title. I'd be curious to see how Sheamus would progress if he were mentored by Arn Anderson, in front of or behind the camera, and adopted some of the Anderson families in ring traits."

According to him Ziggler Deserves some time off from WWE:

"Is it time forDolph Zigglerto take a much deserved sabbatical and to then return with a new focus? It's hard for me to comprehend why Ziggler is not utilized more productively in today's marketplace in WWE and perhaps getting off the road and allowing him to freshen up isn't such a bad idea. Yes, I know WWE doesn't have an over abundance of depth but when a door closes for one talent it should open for another."

Ric Flair talks about Shawn Michaels, early Days of Evolution

Ric Flair talked about many things in 28th episode of his 'Woo Nation with Ric Flair' podcast. He said that he knew Shawn was a good wrestler from the start and also talked about his 1992'Royal Rumble win and formation of "Evolution"


Flair said that he knew Michaels was special when he wrestled him in 1991 in WWF Prime Time:
"Yes, I sure did. We only had four minutes to wrestle, but I knew. I'd seen him and he was still inthe tag team situation. But yeah, he was tremendous. Yep, I sure did."

He said that 'Evolution' was the idea of Triple H:

"Evolution, [the] complete idea came about as a result of Hunter wanting to bring up some young guys. And Hunter and I were very close friends and he said, 'what do you thinkabout this and that?', and I didn't know Randy [Orton] and Dave [Batista] at the time. And they got there, Hunter came upwith the name, and talked about different names. And it just was a fresh start for those guys, a fresh start for me, it gave me an opportunity to position myself with some great young athletes and, at that time, probably the best worker in the business, Hunter,either it would be Hunter or Shawn, and I couldn't be in a better place. But we had a lot of fun together. Just Randy and Dave were just great guys and to this day, I remain very friendly with them."

He said that there were no crazy evolution stories:

"There [are] not any Evolution stories. I couldn't get Hunter tohave a glass of wine if I had a million dollars. It didn't happen. Now, Dave Batista, I did go out with a few times, Randy a few times, but I was very conservative. Those guys,both wonderful guys. Now Dave, I did get him to take off his shirt a few times in a bar when Hunter wasn't around."

Dean Ambrose talks about teaming with Roman Reigns, review of his new movie





PWInsider is reporting that "The Icon" Sting is scheduled for this week's WWE Raw. Raw this week will be live from FedExForum in Memphis, TN.

Sting will continue his rivalry with Seth Rollins. Seth is scheduled to fight sting for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Night Of Champions Ppv. Rollins will also fight John Cena for United States Championship at the same ppv. Recently a report online gave strong signals that John Cena will some how beat Seth at NOC.

- ComingSoon.net recently took interview of WWE Superstar Dean Ambrose. Ambrose was promoting his already released WWE movie 12 Rounds 3 : Lockdown. The original movie stared John Cena while the 2nd installment of the Franchisee saw Randy Orton as hero. Dean was asked about teaming up with Roman Reigns to which he said: 

"Yeah, anytime I can team with Roman Reigns is always a good day, because it's always fun to be out there with your friend and a guy you have good chemistry with," Ambrose said. "It just takes everything to a different level. It gives it a football game type of atmosphere, having that extra guy to play off. I will always welcome that opportunity."
However the movie is not going very well for the Lunatic Fringe, critics are ripping off the reputation saying the movie is nothing without John Cena. The Los Angeles Times has a negative review for the movie. They said that movie lacked firepower without John Cena . Martin Tsai wrote, who is a film critic wrote:
"Written by Bobby Lee Darby and Nathan Brookes, the new film is a sequel to "12 Rounds" in name only. Though not as thrilling as the original, this third installment is an improvement over the paint by number 2013 direct-to-video "12 Rounds 2: Reloaded." The original also had Cena, who recently confirmed his gifts by stealing scenes from Amy Schumer in "Trainwreck." This film has Ambrose, who though better than Randy Orton in "12 Rounds 2," still proves no match for Cena."

It's notable that the first part of 12 rounds franchisee was stared by John Cena. The 2nd installment had Randy Orton as the hero.
