Jim Ross’ AEW contract is coming up soon.
On his Grilling JR podcast, Ross said he believes his contract with AEW is slated to expire this month.
On his AEW contract expiring this month: “I think my contract is up in August. I’m not planning on going anywhere. I like my part-time schedule. It lets me keep my batteries charged. I like working for Tony Khan because he’s always been fair and civil to me, and that I appreciate.”
While he has a good relationship with people in WWE and will text his friend Paul “Triple H” Levesque if he sees something really good on WWE TV, Ross said he loves working for AEW and would like to contribute to the company more.
On having a good relationship with WWE and how he will text his friend Paul Levesque, but he hopes to remain with AEW: “I have a good relationship with those guys [in WWE] in that respect, but I love where I am because nobody has ever taken care of me as good as Tony Khan is and has. So that’s why I’m so content about being there. I want to stay there in AEW and I want to work more. I want to be able to contribute more, so that’s my goal is to stay healthy and contribute more to the company that pays me. And if that’s wrong, then shame on my ass.”
