I usually don't mind JR, and he'll still pull out a great call sometimes, but also a lot of stupid shit like this.
Can't say it'll break my heart if they don't renew him when his contract is up.

JR was especially bad tonight. He's sort of becoming an embarrassment. Damn, I hated writing that as JR has always been one of my idols.

Okay, that JR sauce line must be the new #bluechews I prefer Excalibur and Tony anyway. Never really needed JR in the team.

Basically, Anna Jay got into the 8-man match, Brandy kicked her ass out of the ring, JR asks if she had a wardrobe malfunction and then jokes how he wouldn't have minded if so. Not a good look AT ALL IMO. We've moved on from female wrestlers being Vince's personal Barbie dolls, I get the women in the company are good looking but that isn't why we should be watching. Completely unnecessary comment and had his Tweet end before the final line I could have excused him a bit. That added bit though felt more like a " I'm sorry you were offended" comment than an actual apology.

I really just don't see what he at all adds besides, "Hey, I remember him!" JR's been terrible more often than he's been great since about 2002 and he's just continually getting worse.

JR is so horny in his older age He was getting bad on Twitter for a while there, but seems to have reeled it in as more people were giving him a hard time.

Given that we're like 6-7 weeks removed from #SpeakingOut's zenith and given that AEW did suspend Sammy over making a, being generous, inappropriate comment about Sasha, JR making jokes like this live on PPV is really stupid. I get that you want to give him free reign, but you have to also be a boss and tell him to knock it off. It's especially egregious because he used to give Lawler shit over stuff like that back in the day and now he's doing very much the same thing only slightly less in your face, but he's also doing it on social media too.

Isn't AEW trying to sell Anna Jay as some sort of sex symbol/goddess right now anyway? Not that the old man drooling over her on commentary is needed (always hated Lawler's commentary for example, not one good year...), regardless. I don't think there is any illness there, he's just starting to become lil' demented and so on.

Sure, she's good looking but most of her character has either been about her blue chipper potential and how crazed she's been since changing things up.

He's been bad with flashes of greatness for the entire time he has been in AEW. Tonight wasn't worse than he's already done, sadly, but I am beyond done with him as a regular commentator.
Also, the weeks without Excalibur exposed him. I couldn't help but notice tonight that there were moments where Excalibur had to single-handedly fend off JR being an ass and Tony being less knowledgeable with well chosen quips, and like, if one commentator has to cover for the entire team like that, it's not a good situation.

I think the humidity did him no favors tonight, but yeah he really needs to keep those comments away from live commentary because he knows it's gonna piss people off. Avoid the bullet don't walk right into it...
