Jim Ross on Brock Lesnar: ‘Little traction’ toward WM 30

Chris Graham

brocklesnarIf you thought the segment with brock lesnar on WWE Monday Night Raw made little to no sense, you weren’t alone.

“For anyone to think that Lesnar is as hot right how as he needs to be isn’t looking at Brock through honest eyes,” WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross wrote on his blog today.

The Lesnar segment on Raw had him engaging with Mark Henry, giving Henry a storyline dislocated elbow, before being confronted and hip-tossed across the ring by Big Show.

Lesnar then walked up the ramp as a sort of beaten man. Not exactly the kind of appearance that you want your monster to have had on one of the bigger Raws of the year.

“The former WWE and UFC champion is an amazing talent, but he’s got little traction from where I sit and needs to promoted aggressively and soon if he’s expected to sell PPVs at WM30. The good news is that it can be done,” Ross wrote.
