Jim Ross Confident About AEW Future Ahead Of August 2025 Contract Expiration

AEW announcer and Senior Advisor “Good Ole’ J.R.” Jim Ross took to an episode of his “Grilling Jr” podcast to talk about a number of topics, including if he will be appearing at All In: Texas and when his contract with the company expires.

Ross said, “Oh, yeah, I think so. My [AEW] contract expires in August [2025), but I don’t have any sense or feeling that I’m not gonna be kept.”

On how he will remain with AEW for years to come due to his current schedule:

“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.”
