Jim Ross’ latest procedure has been postponed, as announced on Wednesday.

Ross, who has been in and out of the hospital this year, was scheduled to have surgery earlier this week related to a shunt which was put in his brain earlier this year. The shunt has caused complications since it was inserted over the summer, including severe headaches.

Conrad Thompson, who hosts the Grilling JR podcast alongside Ross, provided an update on the veteran broadcaster via social media today.

“They postponed it after a good CT scan,” Thompson wrote in reply to someone asking for an update on Ross’ surgery. “Hoping for another good report this morning with a new CT scan!”

74-year-old Ross, who is signed to AEW in an announcer role, has dealt with his fair share of health issues over the past few years, including colon and skin cancer.
