2005 was a great year for WWE, with the company creating a bunch of new stars and really delivering consistently when it came to PPV. 2006 was very different from 2005. Fewer stars were made, although the ones that did break through (such as Edge) managed to cement themselves at the top of the card.

Whilst scouting talent in his role as Senior Vice President of Talent Relations, Jim Ross was responsible for some of the greatest signings in the history of WWE’s superstar roster.
He’s been the voice of a generation in the business, but good old J.R combined his on screen responsibilities with his behind the scenes role between 1996 and 2003, identifying and managing wrestling talent. As it turned out, Ross proved to know a thing or two about what was needed to build a top star.
Always keeping an eye on charisma, confidence and a good look, Jr was the man responsible for finding men and women who could fit the bill of WWE superstar later down the line. WWE’s former play-by-play man had an excellent strike rate, with several of his hires going on to lift multiple WWE championship belts. Ross proved that he could identify...
