With Dusty Rhodes being involved in the storyline with his sons, Cody Rhodes and Golddust, facing the Shield at the Battleground PayPerView, he had been asked to step down. This storyline puts the Rhodes family's complete future of WWE involvement in jeopardy. With a loss there is no future with the company, that is the stipulation of the match.
Dusty is one of my all time favorites,my childhood favorite but I think JBL is perfect for this position. He's much younger and can be hands on. He can play a more active role in the ring. I am hoping he gets into a ring with the roster, just as commentator William Regal does. It's a rare treat when it happens.
He's a smart business man with so much to offer in that aspect. His character of a brash, hot tempered business man is mirrored from his real life accomplishments as a stock investor. He even wrote a book, "Have More Money Now" on investments and the stock market.
He is possibly the greatest color commentator in WWE history. He's very quick witted, opinionated, with a delivery that is always on time. He has a YouTube show, along with Michael Cole, called the JBL and Cole Show. Recently they did a show that showcased the new performance center that opened in Orlando, where NXT trains. I am looking forward to his moments on the mic at NXT. Him and Regal together are golden.
Change is inevitable. As much I hated to see Dusty stepping down, there are very few people who could fill that spot, but JBL is surely one of them. This is something I, along with many other fans, didn't see coming I am eagerly awaiting to see what in is the future of JBL and NXT.
