If you’re expecting to see Jim Ross on any future episodes of the Vice series, Dark Side of the Ring, you may be in for a disappointment.
On a recent episode of Grillin’ with JR podcast, famed commentator Jim Ross shared his thoughts not only on the “masterpiece” WrestleMania 38 segment featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin, but he also had something to say about Dark Side of the Ring.
Speaking out on how the series has a history of problematic editing, JR said:
“It’s mixed. I have some problems with some Dark Side editing. I thought I was misrepresented a time or two in the edit.
“But I mean, I admire those guys’ entrepreneurial spirit and I think it’s a good purpose, but I think sometimes they bite into the apple of the dirt. They narrowcast a little bit too much for me, but I’m still going to watch their shows.
“I’m not sure I’ll be on any more of them simply because I had such unfortunate negative afterthoughts of it, but you know, you never know. Those guys are good guys and they mean well, but I think the edit was a little bit callous and not well thought out quite frankly. So I hope they continue to do those shows, and if they do, I’ll continue to watch and we’ll see. They should get better at what they do.”
Previous episodes of Dark Side of the Ring featuring interviews with Jim Ross have been a lightning bolt for controversy including the episode discussing the infamous ‘plane ride from Hell.’
Elsewhere in the podcast, JR spoke about having been just as surprised as fans were to see Stone Cold’s segments at WrestleMania 38.
