I want him to retire and live the rest of his life in peace and happiness and without health problems. But I also think that wrestling and commentating is what makes him happy, it’s not just a job for him, it is passion. So I will gladly listen to his rumblings when he’s back at the announcers table, because, as you said, one day he won’t be there anymore.

So let’s hope that this fateful day will be a long time away.

Prior to AEW even existing, he said on his podcast that losing his wife made him want to return to work full time. He didn't want to be alone at home. If JR loves being a commentator that much, that it helps him cope with that loss, I hope he does it for as long as he is able.
