Jim Ross Thinks Seth Rollins Should Be Booked Better

– Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry online. Check out the highlights:

On Seth Rollins: “The booking of WWE Champion Seth Rollins to rarely win on TV and to be an enhanced chickensh!t heel is a head scratcher. I thoroughly understand the concept of the vulnerable antagonist but for one’s champion to rarely win on TV is questionable. The booking of Rollins needs addressing IMO.”

On Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman: “Calculated risk to book Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman as both men are ‘green’ and it’s hard to feature one and protect the other at the same time. These two could have had a more meaningful match down the road when their ‘greenness’ isn’t as pronounced and the match could have been promoted. Nonetheless it’s obvious that WWE cupboards aren’t empty but I need to feel that someone has the rocket ship tied to them and are getting on a roll. 50/50 booking won’t allow that to be accomplished.”

On James Storm: “I’d encourage James Storm to join WWE if the opportunity is there and not ever have to look back some day and say ‘What if?’ It’s smart of wWE to retain the services of a guy like storm and even a Bobby Roode to see if they can find their way onto the main roster and to help the younger talents to improve their in ring game. ‘Green’ can’t improve with working primarily with other ‘green’ talent. Guys like Storm and Roode, among others, can help build a better overall WWE brand by being there to work with the rookies. This process will take away some of the sting of not having wrestling territories.”
