Wrestling wouldn’t have the same impact without Jim Ross’ iconic callouts, which have added flavor to key events like “Stone Cold” Steve Austin’s ascent and the villainous deeds of Triple H. Wrestling enthusiasts often wonder how these scenes would feel with JR’s commentary, as exemplified by John Cena’s shocking heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber 2025.

In a recent episode of his “Grilling JR” podcast, Ross extended his gratitude to fans who enjoy his classic commentary style. However, he also recognized that such admiration might eclipse the efforts of Michael Cole. He stated,

“Yeah, it’s nice. I saw the same thing. It’s nice. I feel bad because it takes away from Michael Cole, and that’s not the objective, but everybody’s got their taste. My delivery and my presentation in moments like that are different, and I don’t think that you can replicate them. That’s just me.”

Additionally, he expressed, “I liked the hell out of it [Cena’s heel turn]. I thought it was timely. I thought it made sense. I thought it added to the show. It was a jaw-dropper, to say the least. So, I had no issues with it at all. I thought it was fabulous.”
