All Elite Wrestling (AEW) commentator Jim Ross has taken a lot of flack for continuously referring to Jungle Boy by his real name during commentary on AEW Dynamite. Ross refers to Jungle Boy as Jungle Boy Jack Perry on the commentary booth. Speaking to Pro Wrestling Sheet, Jungle Boy responded to Ross’ utilization of his real name on commentary.
Perry explained why he doesn’t have an issue with it:
“Things are a bit different now than when I first kinda started it. I feel like I got here, at least, on my own merits. For me, honestly, to even hear Jim Ross say my name is cool. That’s the voice of wrestling to me. If that had happened at an earlier age and it were someone else, I probably would have said ‘Can you not do that?’ But I’m not gonna say that to Jim. If that’s what it sounds like to him, that’s cool with me.”
