Baseball has Babe Ruth, basketball has Michael Jordan, football has Joe Montana and "for the love of god!," professional wrestling has Good Ole J.R. We have made it to the top spot, numero uno, the greatest commentator in WWE history.
Jim Ross began his wrestling career as a timid, carefully worded sideline announcer for Mid-South Wrestling. Ross was just what the business needed at that time, but like any true great, JR evolved with the times and in doing so, remained relevant. As the business became more mainstream, JR continued to roll with the punches and adapt with the times.
Jim Ross is probably best remembered for his work during the Attitude Era. Ross was extremely captivating and incredibly engaging. He also is responsible for the best quotes in the history of the business. Some of the top fan favorites are "bah god, look at the carnage!," and "Stone Cold is shaking hands with satan himself!" just to name a couple.
Jim Ross is someone who's shoes will never be filled. He was undoubtedly the best storyteller to ever call a match and will always be mentioned as one of the best, if not the very best to ever commentate a wrestling match.
