Wrestlezone is reporting that when Jim Ross's current contract expired this fall, there is a possibility he will be replaced as the voice of RAW by Michael Cole, despite recently being inducted into the Hall of Fame.
What is this, like the 7 time in the last several years rumors have popped up of JR being replaced? And a couple of times it actually has happened. JR must hold some sort of record for most times fired and rehired by anyone anywhere.
Anyway, I don't know if it's true (is anything reported on wrestling "news" sites ever true anymore?), but what are everyone's thoughts if it is?
Michael Cole is certainly a professional and I respect him, but Jim Ross is a legend! If he can't stand the travel and wants to retire or do less shows, that's his prerogative, but he'll certainly be missed if he does indeed leave.
