Jim Ross has received a positive update following his second brain surgery.
The WWE Hall of Famer underwent the procedure last week to address an issue with the shunt that had been implanted during his first brain surgery in August. Ross had previously revealed that he was dealing with severe headaches and other complications involving the shunt.
Ross had initially undergone surgery to have the shunt implanted to drain excess fluid from his brain. While the procedure helped with some of the balance issues he had been experiencing, complications with the shunt eventually led to another operation being scheduled.
Conrad Thompson, Ross’ longtime podcast co-host, shared the latest news on X after receiving an update from Ross’ daughter.
“I just heard GREAT NEWS from @JRsBBQ’s daughter: Procedure went well. He is in recovery right now. Will hopefully be heading home around 3.”
The second surgery came after Ross dealt with severe headaches that frequently woke him during the night. A CT scan also revealed bleeding, prompting doctors to turn off the shunt and reassess his treatment.
Ross has been away from AEW programming while dealing with his health issues. The legendary commentator remains part of the company’s broadcast team and has expressed his desire to return when he is healthy enough to do so.
