WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross took to his blog this week to review “Monday Night Raw” as he does on a weekly-basis. Below are some of his thoughts:
Ross was complimentary of Roman Reigns, and believes things are going in the right direction for him:
“Thought Roman Reigns mic work showed improvement. He seems to be the kind of talent who works much better with a bullet point format than adding the additional challenge of ‘remembering his lines’ to the always challenging promo facet of one’s game in the biz. Mic work doesn’t happen over night and too many fans show no patience while these skills are being developed. Reigns is far from the only talent on RAW that needs to work on that phase of their game. It’s an on going process that doesn’t come naturally for every talent. Reigns has great presence and knows that he has to become more proficient with his verbal game and I’m confident that will occur in time.”
He noted there is definitely intrigue in the Rhodes brothers feuding:
“The apparent soon to break up, or not, Goldust and Stardust duo have more interest in their team than any team on the roster or so it seems to me. Seems as if this pair has been on again and off again for weeks but I’m interested in them.”
Ross made a strong statement about The Miz’s ability on the microphone:
“Miz was very entertaining Monday night which speaks to my premise that his greatest contribution to the business will someday be as a manager ala Paul Heyman, in a perfect world.”

Editor’s Note
Quite the compliment there for The Miz. I do believe his work has been excellent as of late as well.
