Posted: Oct 5th 2015 By: Jim Ross
Greetings all. Big podcast week on the Ross Report with a highly entertaining show featuring ROH's @KINGCorino who's hilarious and engaging with amazing stories os ROH, Steve's career and his one zillion trips to Japan. We also talk why I did not hire him at WWE, the latest on John Cena leaving WWE for an extended time off and my thoughts on the TNA's Bound for Glory PPV of which I watched. Check out our show when it drops at 9 pm ET on podcastone.com and iTunes. Subscribe for FREE at iTunes and you won' miss a show on the fastest growing wrestling oriented podcast in the world.
Big week in my main stream sports life as my Oklahoma Sooners travel to Dallas for Saturday's major rivalry game versus 100+ year rival Texas. I will be traveling with the Oklahoma State Trooper detail as they escort the football team to Texas. Check out my picks for CFB's Final Four in @USAToday out in a day or so.
RAW really needs a strong show on Monday in Boston and the question is do they do an injury storyline of some sort or a suspension situation to explain the omnipresent John Cena's very rare absence that is coming up very soon for the next several weeks. I like this for many reasons as Cena needs time to recharge his batteries and it forces WWE';s hand to develop other, main event level stars of which they are dangerously thin on at the top of te roster. Plus the status of the US Title is another issue that will have to be addressed. This entire matter should give WWE creative some new material of which they really need to feature. Unpredictability is missing from RAW which isn't for which ihe show is known.
Quick Bound for Glory Thoughts:
Gave the show a C+ grade as it had some good moments including the talent working hard but some of the booking was suspect IMO.
Never book two fan favorites versus one villain in a triple threat match. It won't work as a rule and did not work as it could have or should have. No issues with Matt Hardy winning the TNA Title by pinning Drew Galloway while EC3 remained undefeated but he lost his title. The champion losing his title without being pinned or submitted is as lame as being able to win a cage match by escaping the cage.
Bobby Rood and Bobby Lashley had a damn good match. So did the Wolves tag title bout. Enjoyed two of my favorites in Gail KIm and Awesome Kong but thought the finish could have been better strategized.
The Gauntlet match wasn't good and te let's stop and dance killed it for me especially when the match was for the #1 contender.
Impressed with Eric Young's skill set a heel and Kurt Angle is still a badass and effective if not over exposed. Angle at Wrestlemania Texas vs. Brock Lesnar would be a massive hit but it seems that the decision makers in WWE don't share my optimism but I might be wrong.
We've got some great podcasts upcoming including a show with two lovely women joining me when Jackie Gayda, former Tough Enough Winner and Charlie Haas' better half along with the beautiful Ryan Shamrock aka Alicia Webb will be on the show that drops October 13 while the great Lance Russell and PWI's Dan Murphy will discuss the PWI500 on the show dropping on October 30. PWInsider Mike Johnson will join me on October 27 to unravel WWE Hell in a Cell and much more. Mike is one of most popular guests and we are pleased to a have him back with us.
