Following AEW Collision, Jim Ross took to social media to apologize for how he sounded on the show. He also said he would be stepping away to heal.
Ahead of the debut episode of AEW Collision, Jim Ross revealed that he suffered a bad fall in Chicago, showing off his black eye on social media.
Ross was still part of AEW Collision, joining Kevin Kelly and Nigel McGuinness on commentary for the main event between CM Punk & FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler) and Samoa Joe & Bullet Club Gold (Jay White & Juice Robinson).
Ross’ voice was audibly not 100% as he helped call the action.
Ross was named as part of the AEW Collision broadcast team on June 16. He also calls AEW Dynamite and AEW pay-per-view events.
I apologize for the way I sounded tonight.
