Jim Ross cautious about AEW commentator Nigel McGuinness returning to the ring

Nigel McGuinness has not appeared in any matches since 2011 and has mainly worked as a commentator since then. However, the Briton has reportedly been preparing for a return to the ring, with Jim Ross now revealing that McGuinness is currently in good shape. “I’m not sure if he’s planning on coming back somewhere in the future … but he looks great and he’s smart, so who knows,” Rose said on “Grilling JR.” “I think he’s going to be a great addition to the in-ring roster at some point if his body allows.”

McGuinness hung up his boots due to a hepatitis B diagnosis, which reduced his chances as he recovers from a torn bicep, but Ross believes it’s the right thing McGuinness would do if he were to return to the ring things, and will be done realistically. He also wouldn’t be the first wrestler to bounce back from career-ending issues, with the likes of Saraya and Edge proving it can be done.

“He’s good, he can still be good. But, again, the missing factor is the reason he got out of the ring in the first place, because he had a good career. I can tell you right now, we’re wearing the same clothes, and” Mai Guinness has previously expressed the idea of ​​wrestling again to face his long-time rival Bryan Danielson, the man who inspired him to get back in shape. This sparked some speculation about them wrestling in an all-in match, but Danielson’s injury ended that speculation.
