WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is in talks for AEW Collision commentary return
WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross is currently in discussions to make a comeback to the commentary desk on AEW Collision. Despite initial hopes of returning by All In, Ross might make his comeback even earlier.
During an episode of Grilling JR, Ross revealed ongoing conversations with Tony Khan about his return and expressed a preference for working on AEW Collision.
"I actually think Collision fits my skill set. If I could have called that CM Punk – Samoa Joe match, I'd have been happy as a three-peckered goat," Ross said.
It remains to be seen if Jim Ross will soon grace the commentary table on AEW Collision.
