Jim Ross not dead – his Twitter account was hacked
Jim Ross’ Twitter account was hacked on Sunday morning, setting off some speculation that the wrestling commentator had died.
Ross’ Twitter account linked to a website page that listed a supposed family statement saying Ross had died. However, it became clear not long after that Ross’ Twitter account was actually hacked by a Leeds United soccer fan.
Ross’ Twitter account has since been suspended, but just know that the beloved commentator is alive.
To all his family and friends, Jim Ross is alive and well. I just spoke to him. Wants friends and family to know this. #wwe
