Jim Ross Confirms Cancer Surgery Was A Success

Following positive signs, Jim Ross has announced the surgery to remove cancer from his colon was successful. He will now begin to heal following the surgery.

Ross tweeted: "Happy to say that today's cancer surgery was a success. Now we be begin to rehabilitate."

Ross underwent colon surgery on Tuesday, May 27. The AEW announcer recently announced he had been diagnosed with colon cancer and he noted ahead of surgery that he would be in hospital for six days.

JR isn't planning to retire following surgery, revealing ahead of going under the knife that he wants to continue making appearances with All Elite Wrestling. Ross has been an announcer for AEW since 2019 and he often works the promotion's pay-per-views calling at least one match.

"I'm thinking I'll really slow down after the surgery. I'll talk to the doctor, and see what he says. I'll try to really slow down when this is over. Make a few autograph appearances, which I love to do, and see what Tony Khan's got ready for me in AEW. I could still do my schedule I had, but I don't know if anybody else believes that. I believe it. I still would love to do the pay-per-views in AEW, but I don't know if Tony will want me on, I don't know," Ross said on Grilling JR.
