JR working without a contract

[Crippla]

As of a few weeks ago, Jim Ross has been working without a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment. In the past, Ross always worked for WWE with a contract. However, according to new reports, Ross has mutually opted to work without one at this time.

It should be noted that Ross' Monday Night Raw broadcast partner Jerry "The King" Lawler has worked without a contract for years with WWE.

Probably so they can just give him the boot if he starts having any medical issues or needs time off

Oh god, it's time for the TNA rumors to begin. Every time in recent years they've done a "fired" angle on the air, lots of internet marks would tell me how JR was gonna go to TNA and replace Don West or Mike Tenay. :roll:

Apparently these rumors are false....

Jim Ross' webmaster has posted the following statement on Ross' official website (jrsbarbq.com): "many websites are reporting that J.R. is working without a contract with his present employer which is not true."

You thought they would've learnt after the Rick Rude Raw/Nitro incident.

You thought they would've learnt after the Rick Rude Raw/Nitro incident.
To be fair, nothing like that can happen today.
