• Michael Cole Reveals If He Knew The Outcome Of Brock Lesnar vs. The Undertaker WrestleMania 30 Match
During an appearance on the Sky Sports Lock Up Podcast, Michael Cole talked about if he knows WrestleMania results in advance.
Below are the highlights:
On if he knows the WrestleMania results:
“I tell people for as much as we complain for the life that we live sometimes, because we are always away on the road and away from our family, life goes on, there’s nothing like it in the world. You know, I’m involved in a lot of things with the company, but WrestleMania is the one time of the year that I don’t want to know anything that is happening as far as stories, so to be able to sit there and take in moments like the Hardy Boys returning, which I didn’t know about, or Brock Lesnar defeating The Undertaker a number of years ago, which I had no idea about; stuff like that. It really makes you appreciate this business and the ups and downs and the roller coaster ride it takes you on.”
On The Hardy Boyz returning at WrestleMania 33:
“The Hardy Boys returning last year was absolutely incredible. It was one of those moments that you get goosebumps and you hope to deliver the line that people will remember for years to come on the WWE Network, and want to remind themselves of the return of the Hardy Boys. Those are great moments, but again, without the athleticism of our performers we would never have those.”
