Jim Ross Blogs on Who Should Main Event HIAC, His Favorite Performers, More

October 22, 2014 | Posted by Larry Csonka

– Jim Ross has posted a new blog entry, here are the highlights…

On His Favorite Performers: Paul Heyman and Jim Cornette will always be two of my all time favorite performers whether it be wrestlers, managers or broadcasters but because of his ability to bump and uncanny timing and in ring psychology no one will likely ever top Bobby Heenan. The Brain is arguably the greatest multi faceted wrestling start ever when it comes to doing more things well than any one that I’ve ever seen in person.

On Becoming a WWE Announcer: I’ve printed this before…if you want to become an announcer with WWE in the future, I’d suggest you be a student of the game but get ample experience outside of wrestling broadcasting to learn all the fundamental skills a broadcaster must have. If necessary, work for free in your spare time if that’s what it takes. Getting a college degree in communications and or broadcasting and getting a small market job will get you one step closer to WWE if that’s your goal. Same goes for ring announcing. Get experience in other fields as a PA announcer and it will help you perfect those skills that will enhance your opportunity for a pro wrestling gig.

On The HIAC Main Event: Who needs to close the show Sunday in Dallas at HIAC? An argument can be made for the two young guys, Rollins & Ambrose, which will help them establish more credibility on the main event level of which Cena and Orton already have. There are two valid sides to this argument.
