    Does anyone know what the deal is with Jim Ross? Is he leaving the WWE or just leaving the commentator's role?

    Apparently they are restructuring the office in the WWE, so JR is too busy at the moment to do everything and has taken a back seat in the commentary booth, but it is only temporary. There are rumors that Steve Austin will come back as the new general manager, and JR will return at that time as part of the storyline.

    Isn't Jim Ross the Vice-Chairman (or whatever the title is for 2nd in command) of the company?

    Apparently there's lot of people in there who have elevated roles within the organisation but who appear to have lesser roles when you watch them on the weekly shows.

    J.R. was good back in the day, but i think him and king have become parodies of themselves. Personally King is the most annoying man in wwe shouting stuff like "HLA, HLA" and puppies. Tazz is the only commentator to make any effort to call the names of the moves. Which is the whole point of a commentator. J.R. didn't even know the name of the Houston Hangover at Wrestlemania. He just said booker hit him with a knee and then started to traill off. I Hate when people do.........
