James William Ross (born January 3, 1952) is an American professional wrestling commentator and talent relations executive, who is currently signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) as a commentator, analyst and senior advisor.
Ross is best known for a long and distinguished career as a wrestling commentator for WWE.
After years of working various jobs in the professional wrestling industry, Ross became the primary play-by-play announcer for Mid-South Wrestling in the early 1980s.
He went on to do commentary for the National Wrestling Alliance and World Championship Wrestling, before jumping to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), making his first appearance for the promotion at WrestleMania IX in 1993.
He is known affectionately as "Good ol' JR", was widely regarded as the voice of the WWE particularly during The Attitude Era of the late 1990s and early 2000s, and has been labeled as one of the greatest wrestling commentators of all time.
Ross was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2007.
He was also the lead announcer for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) on AXS TV from 2015 to 2018 and occasionally does play-by-play for boxing and mixed martial arts.
Ross also hosts his own weekly podcast, "The Jim Ross Report".
Outside of wrestling, Ross is known for his barbecue sauce and beef jerky.
