Man, the hot takes are scorching...
JR is not out of touch with today's product. Xcalibur is the knowledge guy on the AEW commentary team, JR feeds him lines so he can explain things people need to know. When JR does talk about the AEW wrestlers, he knows what he's talking about. The problem with the AEW commentary desk is, like someone said above, there are three play by play guys. Sometimes, they all talk over each other trying to do play by play, and JR, being the oldest, sometimes comes off slower when they do that. But to say JR hasn't been good for a decade just shows you don't know much about commentary. Or, more likely, are just parroting the current cool smark wrestling opinion.
