A former WWE star recently claimed that she has dated Jim Ross. The star who made this revelation was Missy Hyatt.
In a recent appearance on the Cafe de Rene podcast, The First Lady of Wrestling disclosed that she dated Ross for around two years. It happened after the latter's wife passed away in 2017.
In Episode 345 of the Drive Thru podcast, Jim Cornette was asked to comment on JR and Missy Hyatt. He replied that he had no idea about their relationship.
"No, I did not know that. Well, I don't go, you know, asking everybody that I've ever known, 'Hey, who [are] you seeing these days?' Or whatever seeing or not seeing or whatever the interaction they had was."

He added:
"I wouldn't have been surprised at any point in time potentially in both of their lives if they had been dating each other except for it to be the past couple of years because I'm thinking f*ck Jr's older than me I'm not going to talk about Missy's age she's a lady but f*ck how do they have the f*cking energy to date people. Good Heavens." [From 00:55 to 01:37]"
