AEW announcer and Senior Advisor “Good Ole’ J.R.” Jim Ross took to an episode of his “Grilling Jr” podcast to talk about a variety of topics including the allegations that he tried to rig WWE’s Brawl For All tournament for his good friend “Dr. Death” Steve Williams.
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.”
