Jim Ross has never been shy about calling it how he sees it and that includes how todays wrestling announcers handle the job.
On a recent episode of Grilling JR, the legendary commentator took a shot at modern broadcast teams, saying too many of them try to steal the spotlight instead of letting the action in the ring do the talking.
When asked by a fan whether announcers these days talk too much or dont know when to stay quiet, JR didnt hold back.
Ross has long been praised for his old-school approach to commentary knowing when to hype the moment, and more importantly, when to shut up and let the audience absorb it.
His latest comments are sure to spark debate among fans, especially with how fast-paced and talk-heavy modern wrestling broadcasts have become.
