Jim Ross announces he’s cancer free, will return to AEW Dynmaite on Wednesday

The best wrestling commentator to ever put on the headset is coming back!

Jim Ross, who had stepped away from commentary with AEW to deal with a bout with skin cancer, announced today that he’s cancer free and will return to the commentary table for Wednesday night’s episode of AEW Dynamite.

Ross had left just around the time of Thanksgiving to do radiation treatments, which he updated everyone with on his social media accounts.

The 69-year-old Ross has been part of AEW since the beginning of the promotion in 2019. Before then, he spent almost 25 years as the lead voice of WWE and for Monday Night Raw.

The wrestling community is extremely excited to see Ross defeat cancer and get back to broadcasting on Wednesday night’s for AEW.
