WrestleMania 33 was an interesting pay-per-view, as it featured what we can only believe at this point was The Undertaker’s last match, and prior to the match Jim Ross made his return to the WWE commentary table to call all the action for the main event.

JR’s return to WWE is something fans have been hoping to see for a while now, and he recently revealed to Fox Sports that his current deal will see him work with the company for the next two years.

“It has a specific number of dates that I’m obligated to work, which I think is good for me,” Ross said. “So look at it this way: I got my jersey back. I got brought back to my home team, and my opportunities back in WWE, I’m sure, will be multi-fold. They’ve got a lot of things that I can contribute (to), and I’ve been so blessed in the business that I’ve done so many different things,” Ross continued. “I’ve been an administrator and a syndicator, a marketing rep, a VP of broadcasting, a head of talent relations. But the fun part is what I did tonight. I hope to have more ‘fun part’ assignments in the future, but I’ve got my jersey back,” he reiterated. “So if the team needs me to play, to work more than they anticipated because they need it, I’m in.”

Jim Ross has been going through a very tough time as of late, because he recently lost his wife. Ross has been grieving the loss, but he decided to carry on and partake in the off the events he was committed to for WrestleMania week.

Although this is a difficult time for the legendary announcer, he knew that he would be in good company in Orlando.

“I say this as a completely humble man,” he continued. “My audience has followed me since they were children. If I heard it once this weekend, I’ve heard it dozens of times, that, ‘JR, you were the voice of my childhood, and I listened closer to you than I did my parents.’ So I knew that I was in a safe haven, and that’s the reason that I was here.

From all of us here at Still Real To Us, it’s good to have you back JR, and we can’t wait to see what match you call next.
