WWE Hall of Famer and AEW broadcaster Jim Ross announced on Twitter that he will not be in Toronto this weekend, the location of Collision on TNT and AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door. He included a photo of himself with Kazuchika Okada from the last time he saw him.
Ross tweeted, “Looks like I’m likely to miss seeing my amazing friend @rainmakerXokada this run. Okada vs @bryandanielson will raise the bar significantly! Guaranteed classic! ?”
Prior to flying out to Chicago for the first AEW Collision show, Ross had a bad fall at home. Ross provided analysis for the main event before apologizing on social media for his tone. Ross also stated that he would take a break to heal. Best wishes to JR and best wishes for a quick recovery.
