Although Jim Ross was the voice of the WWE during its most popular time period, his short-lived 1996 heel turn was an early example of an Attitude era trope - the 'worked shoot'. Not only did JR voice his supposed frustrations with the company in a live promo, but he also called out Vince McMahon as the owner.
