The high energy asymptotics of QCD correlation functions is often used as a test for bottom-up holographic models. Since QCD is not strongly coupled in the ultraviolet domain, such a test may look questionable. We propose that the sum over resonance poles emerging in correlators of a bottom-up model should reproduce the structure of a Veneziano-like amplitude at zero momentum transfer assuming equivalence of spin and radial states in the latter. This requires a five-dimensional background that suppresses the ultraviolet part in the effective action of a model. We give examples of emerging low-energy holographic models.
