Lately, JR has been getting more things wrong than usual. I know the guy has Bells Palsy, and well done to him to work through it, but now it's time to let a better play-by-play commentator come in.

I feel he also has the wrong ideas about what the fans want to see. On the Ross Report, his weekly column, he is constantly putting high-flying wrestlers down. He says the wrestlers should 'slow down' and 'tell the story better'. He also wants RVD to change his unorthodox and fan-friendly style. He also dislikes the popular gimmick matches, such as the TLC. I know that he's concerned about the health of the wrestlers, but for God's sake let them entertain. No fan wants to see superstar trying to break their necks, but if there were no gimmick matches, wrestling would not be as entertaining to watch.

I can't be sure, but I think he also abolished Tazz's suplexing style, and replaced with a boring, monotonous one. If he didn't, come forward and tell me.

I'm not trying to insult JR, it's just that he was much better when he called each move by its name, instead of labelling everything as a 'high impact manoeuvre'. I say let Joey Styles in and let JR keep the talent co-ordinating job he has.

5 minutes into a good hardcore match:

"My God, this match should be stopped!"

Another 5 minutes later:

"This is the darndest match I've seen in years!"
