25. Jim Ross Addresses Rumors of Lesnar – Goldberg Match Being Booked As A “Real MMA Fight”
There’s a rumor going on that the original plans for Lesnar vs. Goldberg match was for it to be similar to a “Real/MMA fight”. WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross had the following to say about this:
Saw online where, allegedly, WWE gave their broadcasters instructions on how to frame their narrative for the Goldberg-Lesnar bout at Survivor Series and it was reported that it was to call the match as if it were a real fight with MMA flavor. My question would be why wouldn’t that be the goal on every bout that fits that description or comes close.
This is not just for WWE but for every wrestling promotion that is if the goal is still to get one’s audience to buy in and suspend their disbelief while getting lost in the story. That is the objective, right?
