Jim Ross in Toronto May 10th for ROH Meet & Greet?

Post by Mattxx87 »

On Twitter yesterday, JR told a fan he would be in Toronto on May 10th for a meet and greet sponsored by ROH. If anyone can find the tweet and share it that would be great. If it's true, what does everyone think? If JR commentated the NJPW shows we could be in for the greatest nights of our lives, and now were talking GBH V Night 2 proportions of excitement with big time names putting over the product. Do I think he'll commentate? No. But if he's there to watch the show that is still extremely notable.

Didn't found the exact tweet, but he retweeted this one, so at least he will be at the show :
Earlier today @JRsBBQ announced he's bringing his show to Toronto on 5/9 AND he'll be in attendance for @ringofhonor #GlobalWars on 5/10!

I hope he does play by play, even if it's just one match.

I'm still hearing reports about him appearing on F4W with Meltzer and Alvarez, saying he will be be at a meet and greet. Not sure if it's ROH or not, or just wrestling names. Apparently it wasn't on Twitter. If anyone can confirm this on F4W, that'd be great as well. If it's all bullshit, oh well. (But apparently he WILL be at the show!)

I wonder if he feels like going to the New York show too.

Excitement is in the air. This is great.

I hope he stabs Kevin Kelly with a pen in the leg. I can only dream.

I'm pretty sure Ross is only going because he's in the area the day before. I highly doubt he's being involved in any capacity

Jim Ross would make an appearance if ROH paid his asking price. He is not under a WWE contract and he likes to make money .

That's so awesome. Hopefully he's at NYC. Anyone think that New Japan wants to get an English speaking commentating team and this is a way for the higher ups to meet with Ross? I don't want to start rumors cause I have no knowledge of anything but I can only hope so!

Even if he doesn't publicly appear at the show, it would be great for ROH to absorb some of his expertise on TV production, and for the wrestlers to get some valuable feedback.

I thought he signed a no competitive clause after he left. That's why he never signed with AAA.

Fact that they're teasing it is really interesting. Man, imagine JR commentating in ROH.

I'm not sure they're really teasing it. Just seems like Kelly wanting to be in JR's good graces and hoping it can happen.

I'm pretty sure Kevin and JR are old friends, so I don't think he has to get in his good graces

You've never thought to butter up your friends before asking them a favour? Especially ones you probably don't talk to everyday?
