In an interview with Total Wrestling Magazine, Jim Ross spoke about the possibility of Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 31. Here are highlights:
On the subject of Roman Reigns being in the main event of WrestleMania 31: “It appears that Roman Reigns is the heir apparent to the WWE Title but the issue is when will he be ready? There’s no magic formula as to when that can or will occur. So that’s definitely not set in stone. Who’s to say that Lesnar will even be a villain by WM31?”
On coaching and mentoring younger talents: “I’ve always enjoyed working with, mentoring and coaching young talents. Nothing in WWE or elsewhere is more important than developing new talents and personnel in every area of a company. Getting experience in the indies or abroad is very helpful to one getting a viable shot in WWE. It’s tough to merely have Performance Center experience on which to build one’s foundation for a long, productive career in WWE but it’s not impossible.”
