WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry over at his website where he gives his thoughts on Sunday’s Battleground PPV. Here are the highlights.
On Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn: Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn was strong and one of the best WWE bouts of the year.
On Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns vs. Dean Ambrose: The Triple Threat bout for the WWE Title delivered while closing the show which is never easy in today’s marketplace. I thought that the right man won and the finish was well done. Reigns got a viable, antagonist reaction that felt like money to me. Heel money is green too. Why should I dislike alleged villain Seth Rollins? He rarely cheats, he’s a great athlete that does tons of fan favorite spots and has overcome a potential career threatening injury that was well documented. Getting fans to dislike Rollins is going to be challenging a based on the current lay of the land.
On Enzo Amore: Enzo Amore was a star on the mic with one of the better in ring talking segments that I can recall in WWE in a long while. Really happy for Enzo and Cass especially considering that Cass was once considered to be expendable in NXT. I remember that production meeting where that matter was discussed as the ESPN cameras were there taping for the feature that was done on NXT.
Ross also talked about John Cena and more. You can read the entire blog here. In you haven’t, you can listen to the latest episode of the Ross Report here:
