Former WWE Commentator Jim Ross has commented on WWE removing his audio from Undertaker Hall of Fame Package
The Undertaker will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2022. WWE released a hype video and the announcement of The Undertaker entering the Hall of Fame, which caught Jim Ross’s attention.
Recently, Hall of Famer Jim Ross spoke on the latest episode of the Grilling JR podcast. He spoke about the lack of audio from the Clip and why he was upset, even though he never left the company high and dry to deserve that.
“What really matters is how many JR soundbites has been in any of these packages,” Ross said, jokingly about WWE removing him from the audio, although there was a line from him while Undertaker was on a motorcycle dragging Hulk Hogan backstage. “Is the wrestling war that volatile that the guy that was the soundtrack of the biggest moments in Undertaker’s career is eliminated? Is that authentic, or is it just being selfish or vindictive? It’s not like I walked out of [WWE].
“It’s not like I left them high and dry somewhere or I didn’t do my job. All optics and that’s not fair to the fans. (H/t Wrestling Inc.)
The four-minute tribute video featured some of The Deadman’s greatest moments from his career. Still, it included only one line from the legendary commentator who was calling most matches for Deadman’s career.
On his podcast, he mentioned why other people going into the HOF this year need to be very respectful to Taker and give him his time. Many people thought that Taker would go as a solo induction this year, but Vader was announced as the second induction this year in Texas.
“They don’t need to go over on their speech to cut him short,” Ross said, regarding other talents that gets inducted this year. “That would be very damaging and very disrespectful.”
