Last month, WWE announcer Corey Graves issued a public statement about his status with the company following his move back to the NXT brand. After missing a week of television, Graves returned to his commentary position for the January 21st 2025 show.

During an appearance on Logan Paul’s podcast, Michael Cole was asked about what happened between Graves and WWE…

“That’s a strange situation. I love Corey. Love him to death. I still don’t understand all the dynamics of it. I know that he said something out on social media that was pretty critical of the company. He tried to explain to everyone that he was trying to generate some interest in maybe a type of a storyline. I don’t think the company saw it that way.”

“I think him and the company are working that out. I love Corey to death. He’s an unbelievable commentator. Beside [Pat] McAfee, he’s probably best partner I’ve ever had.”
