Guest SuperTonyJaymz Report post Posted July 23, 2002 Am i the only one who noticed JR have alot of blunders last nigh? He called Tommy Dreamer an Ex ECWA (not ECW he said ECWA) and that the flying splash off the ladder was a variation of the 5* Frog Splash, even though the 5* Frog Splash is a variation of the flying splash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted July 23, 2002 yes I notice a few mistakes also during the Beniot & Booker T match JR: "the Rock hit a hard shoulder block on RVD er um Booker T hit Beniot" Jerry Lawler was completly silient during this slip up, usually the King would of made a stupid remark like where did he go to college at.

Guest deadbeater Report post Posted July 24, 2002 He and Lawler were told "no more jokes about Molly's ass", and lost the rest of the script. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Angle is Wrestling Report post Posted July 24, 2002 JR isn't used to having to actually call a match. Usually everything is just a "takedown" and the rest of the match is spent talking about anything BUT the match that is taking place before him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Austin3164life Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I think Jim Ross needs to take some vacation time off. The problem is is that there isn't a good analyst like Ross to fill his spot. Michael Cole pretty much sucks, and I can't think of a guy who would be a great commentator. Maybe Foley can return. I can see good chemistry between Lawler and Foley.

Guest Downhome Report post Posted July 24, 2002 Are we just now realizing JR's mistakes? He's been "off his game" in my opinion for at least 1-2 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DerangedHermit Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I think Jim Ross needs to take some vacation time off. The problem is is that there isn't a good analyst like Ross to fill his spot. Michael Cole pretty much sucks, and I can't think of a guy who would be a great commentator. Maybe Foley can return. I can see good chemistry between Lawler and Foley. They need Schiavone! Nah, just kidding, get Kevin Kelly or Mike Tenay to give JR vacation time, and when JR wants to come back, replace Cole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zero_Cool Report post Posted July 24, 2002 Foley as a color comentator would be awesome, because he doesn't have to resort to sexual innuendo to get over and be funny. He could just tell bad jokes and do his fake laugh and he'd still be better than Lawler right now. I'm not sure if Foley could do play-by-play, though. I can't picture him screaming about thing like hell, fire, and brimstone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted July 24, 2002 As bad as JR has gotten, could you honestly imagine a WWE PPV without his voice? The Tazz/Cole experiment at Vengeance proved that would suck some nasty penis. As bad as he gets, I'd rather have him than pretty much anyone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I think the problem from RAW was that they moved the announce table and it distorted the perspective that JR and Lawler were used to for so long... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest thefrenchargel Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I tune out Cole and Tazz on instinct anymore..Ross has been biffing bad lately. Dude's old as moons though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest converge241 Report post Posted July 24, 2002 the best/worst JR moment from recent times: the one from Vengeance where he qouted the wrestlemanias wrong..and then realized it later by saying "my error wm3 was right here....in Chicago" lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I thought that was Summerslam. I WANTED TO SEE THAT LIVE! Maybe if we're lucky they will build a feud between Benoit and RVD leading up to SummerSlam. Hell, maybe they will even throw us a bone and give us a 2 out of 3 falls match or some match that won't last for only 10 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Steve J. Rogers Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I thought that was Summerslam. I WANTED TO SEE THAT LIVE! Considering it seems SummerSlam always features an IC change (twice the title has not changed hands, both times HBK was the champion in question) my guess is you will see it, only Benoit as champion and RVD looking to regain after losing it this coming Monday Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Human Fly Report post Posted July 24, 2002 I'm glad Benoit and Jericho aren't feuding any more just because JR couldn't get their names right for anything. "Benoi....er...Jeri....er...Benoit, sorry folks this action has got me all flustered!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vyce Report post Posted July 25, 2002 Are we just now realizing JR's mistakes? He's been "off his game" in my opinion for at least 1-2 years. I'd argue that the time span is longer. Ross has been going slowly senile for at least 4 years now. It's a shame, since at one time (late 80s / early 90s NWA - WCW era) he was the best in the business.

Guest MaxPower27 Report post Posted July 25, 2002 Sometimes I think that if I was color commentator on Raw, that it'd be better than Lawler. (Wrestler A puts Wrestler B in submission hold) Lawler: Hey JR, Trish is really hot isn't she? Woo-Hoo! My wife left me! Woo-Hoo. JR: I'm trying to respond King, but my mouth is full of delicious barbecue sauce! That's JR'S BARBECUE SAUCE (Match ends) It's almost as bad as the WCW announcers talking about the nWo for the entire evening, including during Cruiserweight time. I like Tazz, but Cole needs a swift kick to the junk. I think I'm the man to do that. Perfect announce team (In my dreamworld) Jim Cornette (Play by Play) Paul Heyman (Color) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
