Justin Roberts recently appeared as a guest on the Talk Is Jericho podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the ring announcer for AEW and former WWE ring announcer recalled his biggest moment in WWE, which he stated was announcing Brock Lesnar had defeated The Undertaker at WrestleMania XXX, which ended the legendary undefeated streak that "The Deadman" had at WrestleMania.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview.
On announcing that Brock Lesnar had defeated the Undertaker at WrestleMania 30, the match that ended the Deadman’s streak: “I’d say my biggest announcement in WWE was Brock [Lesnar] beating Taker for the streak.That was the biggest announcement I ever made that got the smallest reaction.”
On his reaction to that happening and how uncomfortable he was: “My stomach dropped. I was just in doubt, and so it was very uncomfortable, and then I get a cue a minute later and I go, ‘The winner of this match, Brock Lesnar.’ And it was an uncomfortable announcement. Everybody, including myself — it was just disbelief.”
