Ross made an appearance on the Grilling JR Podcast and updated all the fans regarding his health. Ross said that he believes everything will be fine and mentioned his target to return to work on Dynamite. 

He also said it will be easier to do his gig on 29th as AEW Dynamite will be happening in his city, and he can just go there by car.

“I’m optimistic. I believe I’m going to be just fine. I’m on target to return to work hopefully on the Dynamite of the 29th. That’s what I’m hoping to do, and it seems meant to be because I don’t have to fly anywhere. I can just drive over there and do my gig and call the matches.” (H/T- Wrestling Inc)
