Jim Ross health updates
Overview
Following his June discharge and subsequent neurological testing, Jim Ross underwent brain shunt surgery on August 12 in Norman, Oklahoma. The procedure, which involves drilling a hole in the skull to insert a shunt that drains excess cerebrospinal fluid into the stomach, was intended to address ongoing issues with memory and balance.
Ross shared a photo of his surgical scar on social media following the procedure, remarking, “The proof is in the pudding!”
As his AEW contract expires at the end of August, Ross has addressed the uncertainty regarding his professional future. He expressed a desire for a “good, clean ending” to his career and stated he is leaving the renewal process to AEW leadership, noting, “If Tony Khan wants to keep me, he will. And if he doesn’t, then he won’t.”
