JR Talks Punk and ECW in Blog

[THE Brian Kendrick's Biceps]

Jim Ross has updated his blog HERE. The following are a few excerpts:

On CM Punk's commentary:

"For those that choose to watch or to DVR NBC’s Saturday Night’s Main Event, I think you will be pleasantly surprised with World Champion C.M. Punk’s commentary during the opening 8 man tag that featured Raw Superstars. Punk doesn’t get the credit yet that he has earned or deserves as the World’s Champion. Punk has some RVD-like qualities about him as it relates to having a loyal and vocal fan base. If Punk can continue to navigate choppy waters, he will hopefully establish residence on the "next level" and stay there for the foreseeable future."

On what he thinks ECW should do:

"Here’s an idea for ECW TV….go young…stay young…and take chances on new individuals and concepts. It looks as if that may be the direction the Tuesday night Sci Fi show is heading. I like watching ECW because one can usually see more wrestling in their hour than many other hours on TV."

Ross also discusses catching up with Jenny McCarthy at the SNME tapings, Brett Favre, and more.

Glad to see JR behind Punk, as it seems not too many are in WWE. Another similarity to RVD perhaps?

I agree with JR, ECW needs to keep going with mainly young talent. It helps them get established in the E. Look at Kofi Kingston for example. He wouldn't be where he is without ECW imo.
