Jim Ross Signs A Contract Extension With The ‘E

News

One of the all time greats, Jim Ross has signed a contract extension with WWE in order for him to completely heal from his latest bout with Bells Palsy before they talk big turkey.

“My contract status with WWE has changed somewhat. We have agreed to terms on a contract extension for a few months to allow me to completely heal from Bells Palsy,” Ross wrote on his blog.

He also added;
“I don’t expect to go back on the road until, at the earliest, March but that is an approximate time frame. The story making the rounds that I’m targeting WM26 to return to the airwaves makes for a good story but it is not accurate as I am hoping that I heal quicker and can get back in the game in some form sooner than March 28. That particular issue isn’t up to me.”

Well, at least we know now he won’t make some sort of announcer run-in on the January 4th Impact! and pile-drive Mike Tenay on a bottle of BBQ sauce. Actually, I’m very bummed that won’t happen.
