AEW’s Jim Ross: ‘Logical things’ to address with Punk vs. Moxley rematch

Jim Ross feels there are logistical concerns to address regarding the build to Jon Moxley vs. CM Punk at AEW All Out. 

JR appeared on a fundraiser for Steve “Mongo” McMichael on Saturday along with Conrad Thompson, Ric Flair, Jeff Jarrett, and Tony Schiavone. During the panel discussion, JR was asked about Sunday’s pay-per-view. 

“Well, I think it’s going to be very unpredictable because I don’t know how you book this card. I don’t know how you have a match on Wednesday and your champion gets his ass whipped like a government mule and then you expect to return it Sunday. Why do I need a return? You just got your ass whipped. So there’s logical things we have to address, quite frankly. I think it’s going to be a very challenging show for Tony Khan to book but it’s loaded.”

JR then shared his concerns about the length of the show. 

“My biggest concern is the fact that I will definitely be wearing darks because a brother’s got to piss,” JR said. 

“This is going to be a 5-hour show. I’m not in favor of any 5-hour show. It’s just too long. Our attention spans are not going to maintain what it needs to be. It’s a chance for a lot talents to clear the deck and make a name for themselves. I say that at every pay-per-view.”
