JR confirmed that he will be on the mic for Wednesday's episode of AEW, after it was announced last week that Ross would be part of the New Year's Smash show.

The 69-year-old Ross said he would need 22 radiation treatments. He returned to the announce desk on December 29th.

Ross was the voice of the Attitude Era in the WWF along with Jerry "The King" Lawler.

He joined the company in 1993 after a successful run with Jim Crockett, and worked for the company in various capacities until he was fired and rehired in 1994.

The most memorable moments in wrestling history were commentated by Ross, who was the primary play-by-play man for the company from the mid 1990s through the early 2000s.

In 2007, he was in the WWE Hall of Fame.

Ross worked for New Japan Pro-Wrestling after leaving the WWE and later returned to the company as a part-time employee. He joined AEW after opting not to renew his contract with WWE.

Ross has been the lead play-by-play man since the inception of AEW, and he has been flanked by Excalibur and Tony.

JR will be back in his usual seat on Wednesday for a big episode of Dynamite that will feature the semifinals of the TBS Championship tournament and the debut of Adam Cole, Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly as a team.
