h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Jim Ross a WWE legend was given the final blow to his carrer not by Bell's Palsey, but by Linda McMahon.
We could say that Ross was fired for the reasons given in the show, but as all wrestling marks know there is always more to the story. All week internet fans have been a buzz about the possible firing of Ross and the real reasons behind it.
As it turns out the real reason that Mr McMahon and company decided to part ways with Ross is simple, He is unphotogenic.
I know that the Guide is not made for personal thoughts and feelings but rather for facts, but the facts are Mr McMahon is out of touch with wrestling fans. I have been a wrestling fan my entire life. I have endured mockery for following this "crap" for years. For awhile in the 90's wrestling was sheik, then it fell off the mainstream.
One thing remained constant thoughout the years, not DX, not the NWO, hell not even Hulk Hogan, it was Ross with his catchphrashes, accent, and his one of a kind humor.
How was this man paid for his tenure? Was he allowed to say good-bye to the fans he has entertained for years? No he was fired by Linda McMahon and then kicked in the grapefruits.
I guess this is a television show like any other where youth and attractivness is more important than experience and heart, which is really a shame.
I hope that Ross will find a home that will suit him. Maybe he can join TNA, it seems to know what to do with talent that the McMahons misuse.
I will now sign off and call this entry finished by saying good-bye to RAW forever, this show has wained over the past few years and now the voice that makes it home is gone. I am not giving up on the industry as a whole just the WWE brand.

Signing off
