WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently stated that the plan is for him to call AEW pay-per-view events.
While speaking on the latest “Grilling JR” podcast, Ross said he will be at AEW Dynasty this Sunday in St. Louis:
“I’m awfully excited about the big AEW pay-per-view this Sunday in St. Louis. I’ll be flying out there on Saturday. Whatever my role will be, I’ll be happy with it. I’m looking forward to going out there and participating with the team. It’s hard to believe I haven’t been working since Greensboro. It will be a good show. I’m assuming that Bryan Danielson and Ospreay will close his show because how in God’s name do you follow that. I would open with the ladder match. I believe it’s gonna be a hell of a show.”
Jim Ross on the House of Black:
“I really like House of Black. I’ve been a fan of their work. All three of them are underrated. All three of them could be stars in single competition if that was the direction chosen.
Jim Ross’s thoughts on AEW airing the backstage All In footage:
“The value of showing that footage to me was the fact that you got on with your storytelling to further marry FTR and The Bucks. So to me when that was the direction that was chosen, I was much more comfortable showing that footage. Other than that, I’m not sure what it meant. I’m not sure why we did it other than the fact that it helped tie together a very crucial and important pay-per-view match. So that’s my thoughts on that deal.”
