Jim Ross engagement report
@JRsBBQ - 1.5M followers on X
Measured over 13 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 23, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.8K interactions against 1.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.124%. Measured over 13 original posts, its engagement rate beats 81% of 1,003 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 59K times each, and 3.07% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.02% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.1 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 13 posts sampled, 69% carry an image or video, 8% are part of a thread and 8% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 18K interactions, about 10x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Jim Ross's engagement rate beats 81% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (1,003 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 85% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

At 0.124%, Jim Ross sits above the 50th percentile of the 10,326 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.048% to 0.321%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 02:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 69% of posts | +79% | +73% to +85% | 5.8K |
| Outbound link | 8% of posts | -49% | -50% to -47% | 6.1K |
| Typical length | - | -5% | -7% to -4% | 7.9K |
- 69% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 79% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 8% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 49% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 242 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters run 5% below the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

Thanks for the outpouring of support regarding my upcoming brain surgery. A hole will be drilled in my skull and a small tube will be inserted reachinto my stomach to better manage/drain excess brain fluid. I’m optimistic. Thanks to all. 🤠

Was this my last fourth of the July? I don’t know, but I got out of the house even though very difficult, just in case it was. These are the Cowboys conversations that are my norm now. #ALS can suck it https://t.co/w0zJcsvBl2

8 years ago today in San Francisco, Jay White pushed Juice Robinson into the Barricade so hard, it caused Jim Ross to fall and sustain a rib injury. This made Josh Barnett absolutely LOSE HIS MIND. One of the best shoot moments of the modern era. https://t.co/E4cg7Phazo

Jim Ross is preparing for brain surgery. The WWE Hall of Famer shared the news on the first Grilling JR (@JRGrilling) since his return home from a nearly 40-day hospital stay. "I'm getting ready to have another surgery, brain surgery this time, and that's going to be an adventure, because I don't think they're going to find much, oh God, my brain," Ross said. He explained what led to it: "I gotta get it addressed. I couldn't live my life the way it was, you know. I forget sh-- and just couldn't remember things. It's just horrible. I felt horrible, but that all started with me passing out in my house and being discovered there, and we began an almost 40-day hospital stay." The procedure is a shunt to drain fluid from his brain, expected within the next week or so with about two days in the hospital. "It's not optional if I want to get better, and I want to get better for sure," Ross said. "This is a whole new ball game, and it's a little scary to be honest with you." Best wishes to JR. #JimRoss #WWE #AEW #GrillingJR #ProWrestling
