Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry, here are the highlights…
On Hulk Hogan: How cool would it be to see Hulk Hogan next Monday night in Baltimore? That's the epitome of 'Old School" booking for this themed RAW. (Someone has already said out loud, ("NO! Save Hulk for PPV!") One would expect WWE will have a few surprises up their sleeve for Monday night as it relates to the old school talents.
On Daniel Bryan and the Wyatts: Daniel Bryan is a genuine work horse but I still don't know exactly what I saw as he left the arena Monday night with the Wyatt Family. Will Bryan now become a pro wrestling 'villain' within the Wyatt faction or will Bryan continue to elicit cheers because the fans love chanting 'Yes!'? Are the Wyatt's an antagonist entity or are they simply, bizarrely cool? What heinous acts have the Wyatt's perpetrated lately to make them disliked? Or does it matter? Just asking... One would assume that Friday Night Smackdown will have a further explanation of the relationship between the Wyatt's and Daniel Bryan. The Wyatt/Bryan relationship is so unique that it might just work. Stay tuned.
On Ric Flair Appearing: However, having Ric Flair on the show makes it feel very special. I haven't seen Naitch since Summer Slam but that's another story....
On Raw's IC Title Match: There was no build up on Raw for the IC Title match which was disappointing, the build up and not the match. It was presented as just another match on a 180 minute TV show. If Big E is in WWE's plans, and I feel that he is, then this match should have had more lead time and sizzle. Plus, it didn't make the IC title feel special.
