Jim Ross Says His AEW Contract Expires February 14, Hopes Tony Khan Renews His Deal

Jim Ross gives an update on his contract. 

On the latest episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross revealed that his AEW contract is set to expire on February 14. 

Ross was interrupted by a phone call, leading to the following exchange: 

Conrad Thompson: There’s Vince (McMahon) calling right now.

Ross: I can’t come until the 14th. 

Conrad: Is that the date your contract is up, Valentine’s Day?

Ross: Yeah. 

Conrad: How about that, that’s going to be a pretty sweet renewal for Mr. Tony Khan, I would imagine. 

Ross: I hope so. I would like to finish up in AEW. I have to be realistic about things. These birthdays, I’m the same age as (Nick) Saban and (Bill) Belichick. I just love working with [AEW]. 

Ross was part of Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, calling the main event between Sting & Darby Allin against Powerhouse Hobbs & Konosuke Takeshita. 

Fightful will keep fans updated on Ross’ status with AEW when more is known.
