WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross wrote the following on Twitter on Sunday night regarding why he was not ringside for WWE’s SummerSlam pay-per-view:

“I’m at Summer Slam on Twitter duty & not broadcasting. Booker’s working w/ Cole & King.

I am at SUMMER SLAM but backstage and not at ringside. Booker adds Smackdown representation not that Cole wouldn’t have. I’m twitter man.

I’m tweeting tonite..not broadcasting. Just happy to be here. 🙂

Game time decision to use Booker to rep Smackdown on tonite’s Summer Slam & to work with King & Cole. I’m happy for Booker.”
