Welcome back. Sometimes, for one reason or another, someone has to take some time away from wrestling. Some of these reasons are a lot more serious than others, but the worst reasons often involve health issues which need to be tended to in a big way. That can be the case with people who do not actually compete in the ring and this time around, one such person is getting to come back.
This week on AEW Dynamite, Excalibur announced that Jim Ross will be returning to the broadcast team next week. Ross’ return comes after he has missed the better part of a month due to radiation treatment for his skin cancer. There is no word on how well the treatment went or if Ross will be missing any more time. Taz has been filling in for Ross during his absence.
Ross is a big deal in AEW. Check out his time in the company:
Opinion: That’s great to hear as you never want someone to be out of action due to something as serious as cancer. Ross being back so soon is an encouraging sign and hopefully he does not have to miss any more time. I know he might not be everyone’s favorite, but Ross is certainly a legend and someone who can still contribute to the show in some way.
What do you think of Ross? How can he be best used in AEW? Let us know in the comments below.
