• Jim Ross Reacts To WWE Editing Out His Commentary On Old WWF Shows

On the latest edition of Grilling JR, WWE Hall Of Famer and AEW commentator, Jim Ross, discussed WWE editing his commentary out of several clips on the WWE Network.

Ross wasn’t happy about it and said:

“I smile in a wiseass way when I watch stuff on WWE and they’ve gone back and edited out all of my commentary on a lot of things. That’s a lot of work for what it’s for. Who gives a sh*t, who cares?

I don’t understand that. How do you do some of [Stone Cold Steve Austin’s] great moments and some of these other guys without using the sound bits that the company told? Well, he’s with [AEW] now. That tells me AEW’s existence is very prominent in WWE. We’re not going to put them out of business. I don’t even know if it’s really a war.”
