Well, it's pretty blatantly obvious he'll probably (and regrettably) never be a part of a WWE broadcast again. I believe Vince and company probably still have a tremendous amount of respect for all the time, energy, emotion and what-have-you, into the business for 16+ years. Basically, it boils down to the fact that J.R. isn't going to be around anymore, so why not make the WWE sign-on a little more relevant with sound bites from guys who have taken over since (Striker, Cole, Grisham, etc.)?
Just my opinion. But as I said before, I have my doubts that any of this has anything to do with respecting or disrespecting J.R.
