Smackdown Loses the Other Half of Their Announce Team
It was reported here earlier that Todd Grisham would be missing tonight's Smackdown tapings, and Jerry Lawler will be filling his role. Well now the other half of the regular announce team, Jim Ross, will also be missing the show. JR suffered a Bell's Palsy attack on a flight to South Carolina last night. He originally planned on still taping the show, up until earlier today when he updated his blog, saying it was a no-go. JR is flying back to Oklahoma to meet with doctors tomorrow. It's unknown right now who will fill in for Ross.
We wish JR all the best as he recovers from this health scare.

How funny, I just watched a SVR 2010 video of him catching fire (And if you don't know what it is, there's wikipedia!)
