Corey Graves has been making waves in the commentary booth in WWE, particularly on SmackDown where he has been paired with Michael Cole. His villainous character added an intriguing dynamic to the commentary team. However, WWE recently saw significant changes in the commentary lineup with the return of Pat McAfee.

McAfee made his comeback at the 2024 Royal Rumble event, joining Graves and Cole at ringside. He also surprised fans by entering the Men’s Royal Rumble Match. Furthermore, WWE announced that McAfee would be a full-time commentator on Monday Night RAW, alongside Michael Cole.

This shift has left the SmackDown commentary team altered, with Corey Graves now reportedly taking over as the commentator for the blue brand, alongside Wade Barrett.

Previously, Michael Cole was the main commentator for SmackDown, but with his move to RAW, Corey Graves has stepped into his role on the blue brand. It will be intriguing to see how these changes affect the commentary dynamics and the overall presentation of WWE programming moving forward.

Corey Graves has a long history with WWE, transitioning from in-ring performer to commentator. Prior to joining the commentary team, Graves was an active wrestler in the company. His last match, according to Cagematch, took place at WWE WrestleMania Axxess 2014, where he faced Troy McClain in a bout that ended in a No Contest.

However, on December 11, 2014, Graves announced his retirement from wrestling, citing concussion issues as the primary reason. Following his retirement, he rarely engaged in physical altercations in WWE. Nevertheless, he managed to capture the 24/7 Championship on November 8, 2021, adding another accolade to his WWE career.
