Jim Ross has tried various ventures outside of pro wrestling and now has another project going. The WWE Hall of Famer has two restaurants and offers a successful line of barbecue sauces that is available online and in select retail outlets.
On the last episode of the Grilling JR podcast, AEW’s announcer revealed he was opening a cannabis farm. He partners with his daughter and husband as well as another person who is a lawyer for the new business.
“My youngest daughter and her husband and I and another guy, a lawyer, are getting ready to start a cannabis farm. We’re looking at the working title of ‘Black Hat Farms.’ I bought some land in Oklahoma recently for the grow houses and all the things. That’s gonna be their life, that’s a big deal. She’s got a great job in marketing. She’s not gonna quit that, I wouldn’t even let her consider that. So, I’m excited about that for my kids.”
Ross outlined just how much work there is for whoever is tasked with taking care of his estate. He believes that by sharing the wealth now, he will save his family from future inconvenience. He’s looking out for his family the best way he can.
“I figured out it was probably smarter to leave them things while I was alive and sort through all the heartbreak and the minutiae and the legal stuff, the probate courts and all these things after I was gone. It’s gonna be hard enough after I’m gone simply because I’ve got so much memorabilia. I need a clever, creative way to have somebody that knows what the hell they’re doing come into my home, inventory my memorabilia, then figure out the best way to pair it down.
Jim Ross recently revealed that he was dealing with skin cancer, JR previously beat the disease back in 2016.
