Former WWE employee and current AEW announcer Jim Ross is concerned for Vince McMahon's health. But, he also doesn't think that's going to mean Vinny Mac is about to turn over the day-to-day operations of WWE to anyone else.
In fact, Ross says that despite his worries that McMahon can't keep up the gig for much longer, he notes "he will run that company until they bury him."
During Grilling JR, Jim Ross spoke about working in the past for WWE and in doing so, mentioned that he's a lot more worried about McMahon's health these days. At 75 years old, the running of WWE is such a grind, but McMahon doesn't seem to be slowing down. Ross said, "You wonder sometimes how intense he is and how busy he is and the responsibilities that he has running a massive publicly traded company."
Ross wondered if it is all just beginning to be too much and said he doesn't know the answer to that question, but he's concerned about it.
Ross isn't the only one who has mentioned McMahon's health. Ryback recently made public comments hearing that McMahon wasn't always doing so well and while it's not been revealed that there is any health "concerns" related to the Chairman of WWE, it seems more and more people are starting to wonder if the job is becoming too stressful.
McMahon Will Probably Let Running WWE Be His Swan Song
It's crazy to say, but the belief seems to be that despite a possible decline in health, McMahon has no plans to stop doing what he's doing. It seems that many would like to see him take a less stressful role in the company, but that's probably not how McMahon envisions he'll go out.
This is his passion and he's long said he's going to do this job until he can't. And, that probably means the only way he can't do it, is if he's gone.
