Jim Ross On Who He Thinks Will Be Leading The AEW Roster In Five Years

All Elite Wrestling Commentator Jim Ross has revealed who he believes will be leading the AEW roster in five years time.

Speaking on Grilling JR, Ross noted that he expects the likes of Adam Cole, MJF, Hangman Page and Jungle Boy to be the faces of the brand in half a decade. Also believing Scorpio Sky and Ethan Page are natural leaders, Ross said:

“Based on aptitude and not eliminating anybody from the process, I can see Adam Cole certainly being one of those guys. He’s a smart kid. He has a smart mind for the business. He’s young and healthy. MJF without a doubt. He’s got a terrific wrestling mind. He knows how to be annoying. He’s very easy to dislike, which is the greatest trait a wrestling villain can have. I have great confidence that he’s going to be a star for years to come, and a big one.

“I like Adam Page. He’s in the main event at the next PPV. So he has another opportunity to take another step up and survey all the landscape. I think Jungle Boy Jack Perry is going to be one of our leaders and one of our stars with a long term future. Darby Allin is over, somehow, some way. He’s a strange enigma like Jeff Hardy was.

“I think Scorpio Sky and Ethan Page, both those guys, have leadership written all over them. The good news is we have several guys that can assume that role because of their aptitude for pro wrestling, and the fact they feel so much a part of building this brand from the foundation up.”

Ross recently revealed that he has been diagnosed with skin cancer, after getting a potential skin issue checked out. The WWE Hall of Famer has also announced plans to open a cannabis farm in Oklahoma.
