AEW Announcer Jim Ross Hopeful Skin Cancer Treatments Won’t Cause Him to Miss Work

Legendary pro wrestling announcer Jim Ross is set to undergo radiation after being diagnosed with skin cancer.

On the latest episode of his Grilling JR podcast, the 69-year-old Ross revealed that he’ll be starting radiation soon. Ross said he’ll need to have 22 treatments, with doctors wanting them to take place on consecutive days. Despite that, Ross, who is currently a commentator for All Elite Wrestling on Dynamite, doesn’t plan on missing any work.

“I’m pretty good. I’ve got this little cancer issue I’m trying to deal with. I’m going to start doing radiation soon,” Ross said.
