Jim Ross has called for WWE to make firings over a recent photo showing behind-the-scenes planning between Raw Superstars.
In the ever-evolving world of professional wrestling, where social media bridges the gap between fans and the inner workings of the industry, a recent photograph has sparked considerable debate. The image, showing WWE Superstars planning their matches before an episode of Raw, has drawn criticism from AEW announcer and WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross.
The photo, which surfaced online, captured several WWE stars, including Gunther, Randy Orton, and others, in candid discussions at ringside. This glimpse behind the curtain has raised questions about the sanctity of kayfabe. Jim Ross addressed the issue on his “Grilling JR” podcast. He didn’t hold back in expressing his disapproval of the leak.
Somebody’s a chicken s**t quite frankly. It’s just unprofessional and has no place. Whoever did it should be fired, simple as that. Shouldn’t go to HR, just say, ‘Look, we’re done. You broke a rule that is important to maintain.’
Ross emphasised the significance of the photo, noting its potential impact on the business.
That picture is very revealing; it tells multiple stories. It’s unique as you can see all the talents hanging around. That’s kind of a typical thing, everybody’s going through their paces, talking, trying to get their timing together, all those things … so it’s daunting. I don’t like it, I don’t like when things like that happen.
The photo also featured The Wyatt Six sitting out of character and Triple H conversing with Drew McIntyre by the entrance ramp.
