In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Alberto El Patron said that his match against Lashley at Slammiversary (July 2) will be “a thousand times better” than the Brock Lesnar vs. Samoa Joe match at Great Balls of Fire.
Here’s Alberto’s quote:
“Our match is going to be a thousand times better,” said Patron, who was known during his time in WWE as Alberto Del Rio. “I have deep respect for Brock Lesnar and Samoa Joe, and I know they’ll give the fans an amazing match, but they’ll be limited by the politics in that company. That company won’t let one of them give one-hundred percent to the audience, they’re going to hold them back. Impact Wrestling says, ‘Here is the ring, go do your thing.’”
