#2 Don Callis can take over Jim Ross's role while Kenny Omega is away

Jim Ross's absence was preceded by another AEW Star's hiatus, i.e Kenny Omega. With Omega away, his manager Don Callis is not currently engaged in any AEW activity. There are a lot of questions regarding what Tony Khan plans to do with the 32-year wrestling veteran.

However, Jim Ross' break might serve as an opportunity for Don Callis. If Kenny Omega's manager is given JR's spot for a short time, it might just be exactly what is needed right now.

Callis' skill with the mic does not need any more proof, and it would be great to see him doing a play-by-play commentary on AEW Dynamite.

#1 Chris Jericho is as much of a veteran as Jim Ross

Chris Jericho is rightfully recognized as a legend in the wrestling business. His varied talent both in and out of the ring has gained him a cult fan following. Y2J's commentary on AEW Rampage is also widely acclaimed by AEW fans, for all the right reasons.

Chris Jericho's extensive experience and knowledge have enabled him to become one of the best analyzers and commentators in the business currently.

Joining AEW Dynamite's commentary team will be an easy transition for Le Champion, and he could do Jim Ross's job while the latter recovers.
