Jim Ross spoke with The New York Post discussin how different AEW is from WWE. He also used this opportunity to share his thoughts about how embarrassing scripted promos are in pro wrestling.
“They’re not looking for play-by-play people, they’re looking for people who can narrate and give backstory and it’s very annoying for a wrestling fan. And maybe, someday, everybody will get there. If you’re talking about something totally different than what I’m seeing there is invariably a disconnect.”
“We’re going to give you [the wrestlers] your most sellable points, utilize those and work them into your promo and here’s your time, you get two minutes or a minute and a half. I just don’t see anybody going in the ring and doing a 10 or 12 minute scripted promo. It’s ridiculous. It’s embarrassing to me that that’s what the business has come to.”
