JR's Blog: Big Week on the Ross Report Podcast, RAW Thoughts, RINGSIDE Show Lost Video, WWEShop.com
Posted: Dec 14th 2016 By: Jim Ross
Very productive Monday in the land of the Ross Report Podcast as I finished tonight's show with "Killing the Town" starring Lance Storm and Don Callis but I also recorded two terrific, conversations with both Jim Cornette and David Lagana for upcoming shows. Now in full on boxing mode as we will broadcast live from Las Vegas Saturday night on Knockout Night at The D on the DBS Sports Network at 10 pm ET/78 pm PT.
Nice story arc on RAW Monday night regarding the New Day and their Tag Team Titles. Whether one is a fan of the storyline or not, the basic writing and structure over a grueling three hour broadcast odyssey is impressive.
For me, I have my moments regarding this matter but enjoy it more when I feel that there is aggression and physicality taking center stage rather than comedy even though I like a sprinkling of comedy in the presentation of New Day.
We are reviewing some 'lost footage' of our three RINGSIDE Shows in Dallas to determine what we have on our hands and how we can distribute it. Lots of fun content for sure.
My writing partner Paul O'Brien and I are at the part of my career where JCP sells to TBS and WCW is corporately hatched. Interesting days indeed and a good addition to our autobiography that will be released next fall.
Nice RAW main event as it's challenging to spread the wealth while being "opportunistically greedy' in a match featuring 6 people. Chris Jericho's leadership was obvious. Good job by all.
I could have used a bit more of a sense of urgency as it relates to RAW being the go home show for Sunday's Roadblock event on the WWE Network.
