Jim Ross Talks the Wyatt Family debut, RAW, Brad Maddox, and More

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently updated his website, JRsBarBQ.com, with a new blog post. In this opinionated publication, Ross presents his thoughts about Monday night’s edition of RAW, the Wyatt Family’s arrival, Brad Maddox becoming General Manager of the show, and more. Here are some highlights from the blog:

On July 8th’s Monday Night Raw overall: “Enjoyed Monday Night Raw from Baltimore and here are a few of the moments that especially stood out to me: Two, outstanding wrestling matches to start and end the broadcast. Loved seeing a clear cut winner in both and appreciate the efforts and physicality of all four men involved in these two matches that helped promote Sunday’s PPV in Philly. Neither man who lost was damaged in the process.”

On the Mark Henry/John Cena segment: “The John Cena-Mark Henry segment was text book stuff and I felt helped add some steam to the WWE Title bout at MITB this Sunday. Cena not being able to control Henry’s size and girth adds to the intrigue come Sunday.”

On the Wyatt Family debut: “The overall build for the Wyatt Family from the beginning of the show including  their entrance was well done. I’m curious to see what their next move will be. Smackdown? MITB? Next week on RAW? All of the above?”

On Brad Maddox becoming the new GM of RAW: “Brad Maddox being named the new, RAW GM provides for some interesting creative opportunities in the future. I’m curious to see where this matter goes and the political agenda that Maddox’ TV persona establishes. Brad certainly doesn’t have the support of the announce trio based on their comments Monday night which could provide some entertaining interaction in future weeks. Maddox reminds me somewhat of the late, Eddie Gilbert. Maddox’ upside is viable.”
