JR's Blog: @MiketheMiz Roars! Promo Class 101, Tkt info for RINGSIDE Shows, Brisco & Alvarez Team To Light Up The Ross Report Podcast

Posted: Aug 25th 2016 By: Jim Ross

Hope that you check out our latest, The Ross Report podcast that dropped Tuesday night at 9 pm ET on @PodcastOne and @iTunes headlined by WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Brisco who joins us to talk about his 10 day stay in RIO for WWE scouting Olympic athletes. Plus, @WrestlingObserver @BryanAlvarez joins mne to talk ROH, NXT Takeover, Summer Slam, Raw, TNA and much more. It's a packed show and you can subscribe for FREE at iTunes and you'll never miss a show as they will be automatically downloaded into the device of your choice.

@mikethemiz created a buzz in social media circles after his reality based, organic sounding promo that Miz aggressively executed on 'Talking Smack' on the WWE Network after Smackdown Live went off the air Tuesday night. MIz' promo represented his best work IMO in a long while as he seemingly expressed himself from his heart and not from his memory. Few wrestlers in today's marketplace are truly accomplished in being able to have a quick turnaround upon once receiving their promo copy, memorizing it, and then being able to deliver the copy in a real, authentic manner when it counts and that's on live, TV. The "I'm Not Working You" feel of any pro wrestling promo always resonates infinitely more than does a memorized promo that sounds as if it is being recited from pure memory without true, motion behind it.

All promotions should consider putting more confidence in their own talents to let them create a large portion of their own promos but with the help of a producer who also realizes that less is truly more when it comes to the heavily scripting of promos and inadvertently producing the personality out of these verbal adventures.

My black hat's off to The Miz for kicking some verbal ass Tuesday night that will hopefully be the start of more to come from the IC Champion. For the record, It's not about volume but always about authentic passion and convictions when it comes to cutting a promo.

Final note on cutting promos is to do all that you can to be yourself and not 'work' the audience as i tl relates to one's delivery and sincerity.

Unlike many fans, I have no skin in the game when it comes to how I like or do not like the look of various pro wrestling title belts. Sorry but I've never been a "belt guy" and honestly scratch my head at times about how obsessed some fans seemingly are regarding this matter.
