AEW announcer and Senior Advisor "Good Ole' J.R." Jim Ross took to his "Grilling Jr" podcast to speak about a variety of topics such as the allegations that he tried to rig WWE's Brawl For All tournament for his good friend "Dr. Death" Steve Williams.
Jim Ross said:
“Many of my detractors thought that I had loaded the tournament so ‘Dr. Death’ Steve Williams could win it, and that’s total b******t. I had nothing to do with the bracketing and who fought who or whatever. But it’s good a story, but it’s just not accurate.”
“We just looked at it as a unique way of introducing Doc. The goal, if we could get there, was to get a one-off with Doc vs. Austin. But we never got that far down the road. It blew up on us.”
