Jim Ross on Sheamus, Seth Rollins and Neville

As noted Tuesday, WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently took to his personal blog to discuss “Monday Night Raw” alongside other topics related to wrestling. Below are several more highlights from the particular entry.

Ross discussed the return of Sheamus, giving praise to his new character:

“If Sheamus can take a page out of UFC’s colorful Conor McGregor’s verbal play book and become an obnoxious, overbearing ass on the mic, I think the Irishman can become a huge asset. I am a fan of Sheamus the man and feel that Sheamus the villain can be a main event player in WWE to a much bigger degree than he was as a fan favorite.”

He talked about Seth Rollins’ booking after WrestleMania thus far:

“Good to see WWE Champ Rollins kept strong and with steam going off the air notwithstanding the fact that Rollins needs to beat Orton at Extreme Rules by any means necessary and w/o the entire Authority lending a hand in the final three count. Smart move by WWE to anoint Seth Rollins as WWE Champion.”

Ross also gave his thoughts on Neville’s heralded match against the WWE World Heavyweight Champion on “RAW,” and gave props to WWE for bringing him in:

“Really impressed by Neville and feel that he was nicely protected vs Rollins but it’s always the soundtrack going forward that makes Neville or any newcomer grow more rapidly. Neville can be special, knows how to sell, which many on TV in all companies struggle with it seems, and he has a unique skill set that fans will enjoy. Plus, he’s a respectful professional that no company can get too many of in their locker room. WWE did right by signing him and polishing his skills in NXT before elevating the Brit.”
