His emblematic phrases have transcended popular culture, solidifying him as one of the most beloved voices in the history of wrestling.\n\nHis exclamation \u201cMy God\u201d or \u201cBy God\u201d, pronounced with his distinctive Oklahoma accent after shocking moments, is perhaps his most famous phrase. Other expressions such as \u201cHe\u2019s broken in half\u201d and \u201cThat man has a family\u201d are often used on social media, even in contexts unrelated to wrestling.\n\nJim Ross is a fervent follower and promoter of the American football team Oklahoma Sooners, and it is common to see him walk to the ring with the school anthem, \u201cBoomer Sooner,\u201d playing in the background.\n\nIn 2007, Ross was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and has been part of All Elite Wrestling (AEW) since 2019.\n\nAll Elite Wrestling issued a statement showing their support for Ross.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>\u201cAll Elite Wrestling joins fans around the world in sending love and support to Jim Ross as he battles colon cancer.
