WWE Hall Of Famer Jim Ross was asked on Twitter whether he and Jerry “The King” Lawler would be part of the Raw 25th anniversary show. Ross confirmed the news.
Lawler said on his podcast a few weeks ago that he is 99 percent sure that he and Ross would be doing some play by play during the show. It’s likely that Ross and Lawler will be at the Manhattan Center and the regular crew will be at the Barclays Center.
