Jim Ross AEW Contract Status Update

A recent episode of the Grilling JR podcast featured AEW commentator and co-host Jim Ross giving his thoughts about if he will be on commentary for AEW’s All In: Texas event in Juluy of 2025 and his current contract status with AEW.

“Oh, yeah, I think so. My contract expires in August [2025). But I don’t have any sense or feeling that I’m not gonna be kept. Because of the schedule I do, I could maintain that for years to come. I’m not saying that in a braggadocios fashion. This is what I do. This is what I was born to do. As long as my heart is beating and I’m healthy, and right now, I’m healthier than I’ve ever been. Once this wound heals, and it’s getting closer and closer, I’ll be 100%. I’m waiting for my hip to heal from hip surgery.”
