JR's Blog: Brisco Scouts..FCW Looking Good..Mid South Library..Foolish Mentions by TNA..Oregon over Auburn..Heenan DVD..ROH..Order Today!

Posted: Dec 17th 2010 By: CMBurnham

Still in Tampa and expecting another productive day/night in chilly Florida.

Enjoyed seeing Gerald Brisco Wednesday. He's looking great and healthy. Doing a lot of scouting for WWE.

Lots of folks trying to promote ROH here and on Twitter @JRsBBQ. No need to be subversive. I hope ROH remains successful and am a fan.

The Bobby Heenan DVD is a classic on a classic. Best, three skill talent ever. Brought back great memories and laugh out loud funny.

When will people get it? If you want an on camera job w/ WWE or any viable comapny one needs to put together a reel of one's work. end of story.

I'm not a fan of John Cena becoming a wrestling villain for the umpteenth time. Just one guy's opinion.

I like Oregon to upset Auburn in the BCS Title game. Speed kills. Big Chip Kelly fan. The two best teams are, however, playing for the title. BCS got that right.

Our Q&A's are updated. Read 'em and contribute.

You still have time to order from our on line store but hustle. Feedback on the Main Event Mustard has been awesome.

It's amazing how much folks enjoy the FREE coozies that come w/ many orders. May have to start selling them.

As best I know, negotiations between WWE and www.universalwrestling.com are not on going. The UWF and Mid South tape libraries are arguably the best left out there that are in tact.

Emailer...I feel TNA mentioning WWE on TNA TV is a waste of time and somewhat foolish. Again, just one guy's opinion.

Emailer...no I never expect to see HBK, Rock, or Stone Cold wrestle again. Could all three make WWE appearences some day? Sure.

Check out www.DutchMantell.com and order his new book. Great story teller and recall for details.

Anxious to watch WWE's TLC PPV live from the arena in Houston this Sunday night. Looking forward to seeing many, old friends. No...I'm there to help out, provide support but won't be announcing and I'm fine with that.

Really optimistic about the talent level in FCW and hope over time that many of them evolve and elevate to the next level. IMO it takes 3-5 yrears to become a main event level star and that time frame is arguable. Some might do it quicker while others will need more time. Best part of my work month is working w/ the younger talents/rookies.

Hope that you will head over to our store and allow us the privledge of being a part of your holidays. We're coming down the home stretch but you can still pull the trigger if you don't delay. We expect to worl all weekend fulfilling your orders. Many thanks.

Boomer Sooner!

J.R.
