Jim Ross Leaving WWE 'I Need to Move On'

GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY ... Jim Ross is leaving WWE.

The 67-year-old legend made the announcement on "The Jim Ross Report" podcast on Thursday -- explaining he'll be leaving the company later this month when his contract expires.

"I'm 67, I still feel I can get the job done doing wrestling play-by-play, and I want to explore that opportunity and possibility," Ross said.

"I'll be moving on in a positive way; nothing but good things to say about everyone involved."

There are rumblings Ross will sign with the new AEW wrestling organization -- but Ross has made it clear he has no bad blood with Vince McMahon.
