I'm fed up with J.R.

Recommended Posts

Guest Flair5000

I know the guy has been in wrestling a long time and probably knows his stuff and deserves respect, BUT I hate the phrases 'He's a hoss' (Why? is this supposed to be a good thing?) and 'slobberknocker' (no reason, just annoys me)

His commentary is just dull. I know he's the straight man but surely he could say something INTERESTING occasionally.

 

Plus his constant claims of a push for the cruiserweight division, seemingly only included in his 'reports' as attempts to placate wrestling fans.

 

Sorry, feel free to defend him. :)

Not much to talk about, huh? JR has become a parody of himself. He was very good in his NWA/WCW days, but once he got "Bells Pallsy", he hasn't been the same. Now he sounds "beaten like a government mule".

I was watching Heatwave 98 the other day and Joey Styles rules.

 

He calls the action...and offers opinions.

Yeah, there's not that much debate to be had really, is there. I just felt the need to have a minor rant.

 

Plus, I really like typing BY GAWD! for some reason.

 

I might have that as my signature, in fact.

At least he hasn't used "Booger Red" in a while.  He did, however, say the NWO had "a case of the limber tail" at least 3 times on Smackdown (BY GAWD! :) ).

Angle was SCREWED! STONE COLD, STONE COLD, STONE COLD! This is going to be a real slobberknocker.

 

3 JR quotes, right there.

"No one has been on a bigger role than Test since the survivor series, in my view"

 

I hear that almost every Test match.

 

Has Test won a match since Survivor Series?

He did use Booger Red at No Way Out.  Yes his work has declined, but would you really rarher have Michael Cole twice a week?  No one is as good at making a match seem special as Ross.  He does not do it for every match, but when he's on, there is no one better.

Yes, Michael Cole is worse, but we're having a little fun with the "hoss" of announcing JR.

Styles is better.

 

He called some of the shittiest matches in history...and made them seem MUCH better.

The WWF didn't offer him enough money.  Can you imagin him HAVING to put over Kane's "scary burnt man gimmick"?  Joey is like Monsoon, only younger and more vocal.
