Drew McIntyre reacts as Jim Ross calls Kenny Omega the "WWE Champion" on AEW Dynamite
On this week's episode of AEW Dynamite, commentator Jim Ross mistakenly referred to AEW Champion Kenny Omega as the WWE Champion. While it was a harmless mistake, it sent social media into a frenzy.
The reigning WWE Champion Drew McIntyre himself joined in on the fun, taking to Twitter to poke fun at Good Ol' JR. He posted an image of himself along with a caption which read:
"The WWE World Champion, Drew McIntyre is not impressed or amused."
The veteran commentator also took to Twitter to clarify the situation.
It is clearly obvious that it was an unintentional mistake on the part of Jim Ross. The man has commentated for a lot of big promotions around the world, including WWE.
