WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross revealed on Twitter that he was invited to attend the Raw Reunion show next Monday but chose to decline the invitation.

“I was cordially invited to attend #RAWReunion by Vince McMahon but I politely refused,” Ross tweeted. He also mentioned that AEW President Tony Khan left it up to him if he wanted to appear or not. “Nonetheless I hope the #RAWReunion is a ratings success.”

JR is an enormous part of Monday Night Raw history, having provided play-by-play commentary for several years. But the man in the black hat is now a full-time employee of All Elite Wrestling, returning to the broadcast booth to help with commentary.
