JR Comments on Casket Match, Sailor Suit(PHOTO) and More
JR updated his blog, here are a few highlights:
Casket match on Smackdown:The first ever official Casket Match on Friday Night Smackdown is this Friday night even though the casket itself has made cameos in the past.
John Cena returns promo:The great vignette about John Cena’s youth and college years airs this Friday night and is one of the best pieces of business I have seen in a good while. Oklahoma has a strength coach who coached Cena at Springfield College and has told me personally that as a young college kid Cena demonstrated amazing strength and an overwhelming drive to be the best offensive lineman on the team. If Cena was ever “missing”, he was usually in the gym lifting weights. That’s not hard to believe is it? O-Linemen have a unique work ethic and often times toll in obscurity down in the trenches. That takes an unselfish, blue collar work ethic which Cena has whether you, as a fan, like the man or not. Too bad many of you “haters” can’t get to know John as I have over the years because if you did you couldn’t “hate” him. I knew the first time I scouted John at Rick Bassman’s wrestling school in Southern California that Cena was a keeper and told Vince McMahon upon returning to the WWE HQ after red-eyeing it back to Connecticut that I felt like I had signed a future main eventer for Wrestlemania.
JR comments on his Sailor Suit: Check out my silly looking photo which is being displayed on www.wwe.com on the home page and see what a BBQ loving, Oklahoma Sooner supporting, WWE Hall of Fame announcer looks like in a make shift sailor’s suit. If you listen closely to the commentary I think you will be surprised as some of the things we say that actually make air as I finished voice overs at 3 a.m. Thursday morning for the show. Some of it, for the wrestling world, is actually funny and some suits might even call it “entertainment.” More on JR>>>>>>>>>>>>>
