WWE Tried Something New On Raw To Create A 'Real Sport' Vibe

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Oct 22, 2019

During Monday's WWE Raw, Ric Flair was interviewed ringside while the Drew McIntyre vs. Ricochet match was going on in the ring.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reports this was done to give the show a more 'real sport' vibe, something FOX has been keen to give SmackDown.

"That’s the thing they’re trying to copy real sport. They’ve been doing this in UFC now where they’ll have like a sideline reporter and interview the cornermen and things like that which I think is so annoying, but that’s the new thing that they do.

So that’s what they were trying to copy, that sports thing and usually they don’t have managers so usually they don’t have a chance to do that here, but with Flair at ringside. Yeah, to hear [Ric] Flair interviewed while the match is going on that was quite something."

Did you like the new way of interviewing? 

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair names Drew McIntyre as the final member of Team Flair, which will face Team Hogan at WWE Crown Jewel on Oct. 31 on WWE Network.
