During a recent interview with the Inside The Ropes podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross commented on how he never wanted to be sidelined in wrestling and more. You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On his return to the broadcast table: “I didn’t want to leave the game to start with. I wasn’t sitting on the sideline last year of my own volition. I didn’t unbook myself and say ‘I don’t wanna work, just send me a check and every week and I’ll be happy’. I had business to conduct and I can still do this job.”
On what he wishes would be brought back to wrestling: “Fundamental soundness for one thing. That would include selling, logically putting matches together, don’t do anything you can’t do well. Just logic. Logic, and I don’t see enough of that. The pace of matches sometimes is a little faster than most can accurately invest in, or process that fast. Hopefully it’ll be sound wrestling [in AEW], I think it will be.”
