As for Justin Roberts, I always thought he was a terrible ring announcer and he always have off a vibe that he wasn't very nice. For what it's worth I met him at a house show in 2006 and he was nice af and took a pic with my friend lol. You know it's gonna turn out to have been Benoit because he's the only person not around to face the music. Would anyone be shocked?

The way he described it sounds like Orlando Jordan was probably responsible. Well probably did it for for JBL.

I thought Justin Roberts came off as perfectly nice on JR's podcast and I loved his ring announcing.
JBL sounds like an ass. Ivory goes off on how he'd treat new talent in her shoot interviews, and yet if someone new was well connected or being set up for big things he'd be all over them and kissing up to them. Look at how he treats Otunga as opposed to how he treats Byron. The former is 'councillor' and is treated as one of the guys, the latter was basically bullied on air. Guess which one is married to a world famous celebrity and is therefore probably unsackable?
And don't get me started on how he was apparently at the reigns during Melina's case in 'Wrestler's Court' (I mean really...) when they woke her up in the earlier hours, got her out of bed and placed bets to see who could make her cry the fastest.
Gross. And that tweet!
Just get rid.

I remember being so glad when Justin Roberts took over from Lilian as RAW ring announcer. I don't think he had the spot for too long though.

He was there for 5 years... lol Honestly, I don't know where all this Justin Roberts is trash talk is coming from. I read his Connor post and nothing in there was disrespectful to Connor. He just said he hates how WWE spins shit for good publicity, which they do. He seems like a really nice person, and a lot of wrestlers have backed up his claims on JBL. Let's not start acting like he's Josh Matthews. Edit: And this is coming from someone who was never a fan of his, lol

Mauro Ranallo returned to social media this weekend and has been very active on Twitter after removing any WWE mentions from his profiles. While Mauro received a ton of support on Twitter yesterday, it was noted on today’s Wrestling Observer Radio that JBL was blocking people that were tweeting the well wishes. JBL also blocked people that were following both he and Mauro on Twitter. Why is he like this, lol

I wonder if he has people to do it for him or if he himself goes through thousands and thousands of tweets to find all the ones he doesn't like. Either way, what a sad existence that is to lead.

ESPN, CBS Sports, Deadspin and Forbes all talked about the allegations of JBL being a known bully earlier this week, and still, I'm sure nothing will be done about him.
