Jim Ross’ contract is set to expire with WWE on April 30, 2010. It’ll be interesting to see which company he shows up on this Monday; WWE or TNA.

On October 20, 2009, JR suffered a bell’s palsy attack and has been away from the Smackdown commentating booth ever since.

Jim Ross has stated that WWE and him haven’t been able to come to a final deal with his contract yet. One thing is official though, if WWE does manage to re-sign Ross, then he will no longer be a commentator. Instead, he’ll be working backstage at WWE events. But deep down inside, a part of JR probably knows that commentating is what he does best. While a backstage role in WWE isn’t so bad, it doesn’t come any where near the publicity of commentating. Especially for someone who’s on the level of JR. He’s often been called the voice of WWE. Not only that, he’s also sometimes regarded as the best commentator in the entire business.
