Jim Ross provides the latest update on his health.
WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross has been sidelined since the premiere episode of AEW Collision on June 17. Before the show, he suffered a fall, and the incident impacted his performance. Ross stated that he would be taking some time away to heal, and he later revealed that he likely suffered a concussion. He has said he does not have a date for his return to AEW, but he hopes to be back for AEW All In.
Speaking on his Grilling JR podcast, Ross commented on his health while he discussed his visit to Oklahoma. He noted that he is making some progress.
“It’s been good. The chiropractor visit has been very well-timed. I got another one later today. I’m sore as hell. I feel like I got beat up, with just pushing and prodding and twisting and so forth. But I’ve gotten some good, timely relief on the sciatica, which is a bitch. Those of you who have had to experience know exactly what I’m taking about. I went like three days, I couldn’t walk. I crawled or I limped, or I pulled myself here or there. I got me a walking stick, goddamn, I hate that. So anyhow, it’s better. My radiation wound seems to be healing, but it’s just so slow. They’re very concerned about infection, which I don’t want to get that infected because that’s not good business. So I’m on some heavy ass antibiotics. One more treatment today, then I’ll fly back to Jacksonville on Thursday as we’re talking here today, and move on. So it’s all good," Ross said.
