In a recent update on Grilling JR, Jim Ross shared that he will be extending his leave of absence from AEW for a few more weeks to properly heal his leg wound.
He has missed past AEW shows in recent weeks including Collision and Dynamite.
“I’m pretty good, Conrad. Had a busy week at the doctors’, and trying to get all these little things taken care of. They’re not little things if you let them go. So anyway, I’m getting better, I think. Still gonna be off work for a few more weeks, and then we’ll just move on, and hopefully it’ll work out. I had a long doctor’s meeting yesterday, over two hours. You know how it goes. Getting old is the shits,” Ross said.
