Ross with new job

**PureHatred** · 04-09-2004, 04:41 PM

Thi ia actually pretty big news as JR was the man in charge of signing and scouting talent. Basically, JR was the reason that there was such a preference for "Hosses" (maybe from his days getting King Kong Bundy and One Man Gang over as the booker in Mid-South). I mean, Vince aside, if your head of Talent Relations has that kind of bias, it's going to affect which wrestlers get developmental contracts, which ones are put on TV, and, ultimately, the kind of wrestler that makes up the majority of the programming.

Hopefully, Laurinaitis has a more open mind and will be willing ot sign wrestlers that are talented, even if they don't fit the WWE's cookie cutter mold of talent.
