Jim Ross issues statement after missing AEW Worlds End 2025

AEW and WWE veteran Jim Ross was unfortunately not on commentary duty at Worlds End 2025. The iconic broadcast personality has nonetheless taken to social media to share his thoughts on the ongoing pay-per-view.

Jim Ross played a huge role in legitimizing All Elite Wrestling during the promotion's early years with the credibility of his commentary and his decades of experience in the business. However, the Hall of Famer has not been at the announcer's desk on Dynamite in some time, and made his last pay-per-view appearance at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door earlier in August.

Good Ol' JR has dealt with multiple health issues this year, and although he claimed to have recovered significantly last month, he was still unable to perform commentary at AEW Worlds End. Now, Ross has taken to X/Twitter to share his thoughts on the event, offering his compliments and praising the quality of wrestling on the show.

"Loving #WorldsEnd on PPV! Classic pro wrestling on display. @[All Elite Wrestling]," wrote JR.

It remains to be seen when Jim Ross will be back on the announcer's table in All Elite Wrestling.
