WWE Rumor Roundup: Former Champion says 'I'm done'; Brock Lesnar responsible for backstage altercation involving Vince McMahon; Big name wanted to knock Cena's teeth out - 30 July 2020

#4 Jim Ross had backstage battles with Vince McMahon over Brock Lesnar in WWE

Jim Ross recently talked about WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar on his podcast - 'Grilling JR'. Jim Ross mentioned that he did not think Brock Lesnar was ready for a main-roster run when he was called up by WWE from developmental. Ross stated that he warned Vince McMahon that such a green athlete could be dangerous in the ring.

Jim Ross also talked about what a prodigy Lesnar was and how fast he learned the trade. The Hall of Famer said that the only person who learnt faster than Lesnar was Kurt Angle.

"Vince had a new toy that he loved to look at. Could Bobby have used a little bit more time in the farm or working the second or third match on house shows? Yes, he should've had more time. I had the same battles with Vince about Brock Lesnar. Creative wanted to bring Brock Lesnar up earlier than I wanted him to go and I simply told Vince 'He can't protect anybody right now, he's still learning things and he's so god damn strong that a small calculated error could be disastrous.'"
