Ross saw another fan who said: “I do believe that Jim Ross is a kind individual who would never intentionally misgender a trans person on national tv. I sincerely hope that it was a simple slip of the tongue which could have been ANY woman, not particular to Nyla Rose. That would be cruel.” The WWE Hall Of Fame announcer replied saying: “You’re right, sir.”

This was just a slip-up and nothing malicious was behind it at all. Hopefully, Jim Ross is much more guarded with his gender specific comments in the future.
