Jim Ross Reacts to Seth Rollins’ Injury and the WWE Title Tournament, Analyzes WWE’s Possible Silver Lining in Rollins’ Unfortunate Injury

jim ross blogA new Jim Ross blog has been posted over at JRsBarBQ.com, and below are some highlights:

“WWE Champion Seth Rollins is going to be out of action likely around 9 months after blowing out his knee including his ACL. Rollins will be stripped of the title as I understand it and a tournament will be held to crown a new, WWE World Champion which should be positioned as a HUGE deal within the WWE. When a bad break occurs within the pro wrestling business it always opens the door for, at times, the most unlikely individual to step up and assume the mantle of the company. How the creative minds address this issue is going to be pivotal including who actually are entered into the tournament which I assume will be a single elimination format whereby the winners advance and the losers take a seat much akin to the NFL playoffs or March Madness in the NCAA hoops tourney. That puts a sense of urgency on every match which should , by all rights, create some excellent TV.

I’ve seen these calamities work out well in the past if the creative forces are willing to blow up the status quo and think outside the box to put even more clout on the WWE Title and to put talents in a position to become more relevant and hopefully, make some new stars and create some new rivalries via this process.”
