Bruce Prichard recently spoke with Justin Barrasso of SI.com to talk about various topics. Here are the highlights.
On WWE’s Great Balls of Fire PPV:
“Vince McMahon loves Jerry Lee Lewis,” said Prichard, referring to the popular 1950’s rock-and-roller. “So that name doesn’t surprise me at all. I can picture that scene; someone said the name as a joke, then Vince began to laugh and said, ‘I love it!’”
On Brock Lesnar vs. Samoa Joe:
“The anticipation to see Brock and Joe is out of this world, and that’s the most important thing leading into the match,” said Prichard. “There aren’t two more evenly matched guys, perhaps with the exception of Bobby Lashley or Kurt Angle in his prime, but these are two guys who the audience really wants to see. If Brock and Joe are open to it, they’ll make it a fiercely competitive match. I would not pull the trigger on a Samoa Joe title run at Great Balls of Fire, as Brock Lesnar should end the pay per view on Sunday with the championship still in hand.”
