Jim Ross Addresses Whether He’ll Make Wrestlemania Weekend Appearances

If that’s what he wants to do. Last week, Jim Ross’ wife Jan passed away after a car hit her while she was riding her Vespa. After a few days in the hospital, Jan passed away due to the head injuries from the crash. While it’s nowhere near as important, the main wrestling related question was whether or not Jim Ross would appear at his various appearances over Wrestlemania weekend.

According to a new blog on JRsbbq.com, Ross has said that he will be making all of his appearances as he believes that’s what Jan would have wanted. His other options were to sit at home and be reminded of what he had lost so he’s chosen to go and be around friends and fans who might be able to help him take his mind off things for a little while.

Opinion: This isn’t about wrestling. If Ross had canceled his shows, I really hope no one would take any issue with it but unfortunately I’m sure some people would have. I’ve never gone through what Ross is dealing with now and I hope I never have to but maybe this is how he deals with his grief. If that’s the case, I certainly hope it helps.
