Good Ol' JR was featured on Busted Open Radio and was quite critical on the pre-show for AEW's PPV, Fyter Fest. Here are some of JR's own words about the event.
"Honestly, I wasn't crazy about it, I do not think it sold enough of what we were doing on the main show," Ross said. "I didn't think it was what we needed to be doing. Now, I like comedies, when I'm drinking those are my go-to. I think we have to be selling a good sampling of what we do in the main show. If you have a pregame show for a pay-per-view, those matches shouldn't just be filler, they should be something."
Jim Ross went on to give his thoughts on former WWE Superstar, now AEW headliner, Jon Moxley.
"It is the biggest get for us I think," Ross opined. "The timeliness of him coming fresh off WWE television, I know he wasn't always happy with his creative, but he spent a lot of time on TV, had eyes on him and he has name recognition. He is young, athletic and passionate. He comes to work with a chip on his shoulder. He is full of energy. He is a big get, his passion and work ethic rubs off on the other guys."
