Jericho Story Not Over, This Week’s DVD Rankings, Latest JR

- Police are still investigating the Chris Jericho fan incident, studying footage and taking eye witness reports. The “fans” are adamant that Jericho was at fault, and obviously Jericho begs to differ. Once the case is closed it will be handed over to the crown to decide whether or not file charges against Jericho, or any of the fans involved.

It seems insane to me that they are even considering Jericho to be at fault. If anyone the security should be charged for not doing their jobs.

- Here is this week’s Billboard top Recreational and Sports DVD titles:

1. WWE: Starrcade: The Essential Collection
2. UFC: 88: Breakthrough
3. WWE: Armageddon 2008
4. WWE: Edge: A Decade Of Decadence
5. WWE: WrestleMania XXIV
6. WWE: Hell In A Cell
7. UFC: Ultimate Knockouts 6
8. WWE: Legends Of Wrestling Collection
9. WWE: The Rock: The Most Electrifying Man In Sports Entertainment
10. WWE: The Legacy Of Stone Cold Steve Austin

- Jim Ross is back with more blog thoughts on JRSBARBQ.com blog; here are the wrestling highlights:

On Randy Savage:
“‘Macho Madness: The Randy Savage Ultimate Collection’ will be released by the WWE on June 9 and as of today the match selection process was still on going. Obviously, some of Savage’s bouts are no brainers to include on this upcoming DVD including Savage vs. Steamboat from WM3 but there is so much excellent content to pick from that making a final decision on this particular DVD won’t be easy.”

On Christian:
“I have to admit that I was surprised to see Christian return to the WWE Tuesday night on ECW. Christian returning to the WWE at some point wasn’t a big secret in many circles but Christian going to the ECW brand was. Personally, I was hoping that “Captain Charisma” would have joined the Smackdown team. ECW got a nice addition to their roster and because they only do one hour or 6 segments of TV weekly, the ECW show should feature solid, in ring wrestling more weeks than not. I think fans want to see more bell to bell action and ECW seems to provide that most weeks.”

On Draft Lottery:
“Tuesday in Fresno lots of WWE talents were speculating and discussing the upcoming WWE Draft on April 13 from Atlanta when, I assume, every one and their Mom, will be required to be front and center for the annual “let’s shake up the WWE night.” This Raw broadcast will likely garner a healthy TV rating. After last June’s night of surprises in San Antonio, any thing can happen and likely will. I am prepared for whatever unlike last year when I wasn’t expecting to leave Raw. Change can often times be effective and I personally think it is a good thing to shake up the rosters and create new rivalries and issues. Plus, it is a great time to provide some young talents a nice ‘jump start.’”

On Announcers:
“Recently I have been asked if I preferred to broadcast with a color announcer that I verbally “battled” with or not. I like for announcers to have differing opinions and for both announcers to not always be on the same page. However, when the show becomes about the announcers and the broadcaster’s opinions and not about what the viewers are seeing on their TV screen then you’ve lost me. Color commentators with a bit of an edge and that are somewhat antagonist keep play by play guys honest and away from the dreaded, career threatening comfort zones. However, for announcers to rag on each other for two hours each week would get old in a hurry. I guess what I am trying to say is that there needs to be balance and hearing two differing opinions isn’t a bad thing.”

  1. omg is it me or did jrs blog at end speak of one article on here
    written for this site about commentators

  2. It’s possible, JR does seem to scour the internet a lot, if only to rip on it.

  3. wtf are you talking about? you know what. thats your opinion…but in mine, jericho could have protected himself other ways then putting his hands on a woman…YOU SHOULD NEVER PUT UR HANDS ON A WOMAN. If you take away him hitting the chick, this actually makes jericho a bad ass and looks good on the fact that he trashed the dudes, but HE HIT A WOMAN, WTF…HE COULD OF PUSHED HER, HE COULD OF DROVE OFF, HE FUCKIN HIT THE CHICK MAN…DO YOU HIT GIRLS?

  4. Oh please, don’t be so blind. “Ughh you should never hit a woman.”

    You obviously don’t hit women in a controlling manner, for no reason, or as part of a power relationship, but as self defense when a dumb bitch is attacking you then go for it! And the law will back you up in most cases.

    Women fought for years for equal rights, don’t patronize them by coddling them in cotton wool. She clearly wanted violence from Jericho and she got it.

    Don’t blindly spout the phrase “you should never hit a woman” because you think it gets you brownie points. Use your head. There are obviously times when hitting a woman is borderline acceptable.

    And he pie faced her.
