WWE confirms new announce teams

[Evil Vito]

Raw: Vic Joseph, Dio Maddin, and Jerry Lawler

SmackDown: Michael Cole and Corey Graves with Renee Young listed as a “special contributor”

NXT team remains unchanged - Mauro Ranallo, Nigel McGuinness, Beth Phoenix. No word on the 205 Live team.

I though Tom Phillips did a good job so I’m not a big fan of him benched. Was hoping Cole would piss off altogether and go to the backstage role he’s been rumored for but I knew it wouldn’t happen.

There was no way WWE's answer to Joe Buck was not going to be on Fox.

Young is going to be hosting a WWE show on FS1 for Tuesdays.

Vic is very good.

[Loose Cannon]

just saw all this. when i watch i only watch Raw so i have no idea who a lot of these people are. But anything is better then Cole. he's so awful and i can't stand how he states the obvious. Like the Fiend will pop up after the lights come back and his music has been playing and he'll go "IT'S BRAY WYATT THE FIEND" yes Michael thank you, we can see that. he's terrible.

Lawler :roll:

[Emperor Smeat]

Joseph and Dio were pretty good during their brief time together on 205 Live but a bit strange to add Lawler to that mix.

Smackdown got worse. Only bright spot is maybe Graves becomes more bearable since I assume its going to mostly be a 2-man booth and Renee is only around on occasions. Graves is easily the worst commentator WWE has when he has a 3rd person around for insults and bickering.

[Triple A]

Really glad Lawler is back.

Seeing a lot of annoying people on Twitter who are "disgusted" that he is back for some reason, presumably because he is horny?...

[Emperor Smeat]

Probably a mix of that, him getting worse on commentary with Cole, and some disparaging remarks he's made on social media regarding fans and women's wrestling over the years.

[Seanny One Ball]

Jerry Lawler would fuck the hole in the O-Zone layer mate

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Too bad the NXT heyday team has been split apart on Smackdown.

Your new RAW play-by-play is a gem

1 question / 1 observation
A) why does Liv have the SD women's title in that?
B) Pat McAfee should be an announcer.

[GD]

Droford, did you forget that brief period when she was champion?

[Droford]

Apparently

Edit: I just looked. She has never been champion. So back to my question, why does she have it? Was Bayley like "hey I just won this but you have it for this thing no one watches.."

Her title reign was never officially acknowledged man

where's her teeth?

[Mr. Nerfect]

Lawler is awful as a babyface commentator, but when he went heel with Mauro he was pretty okay again. I don’t hate that line-up.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Ah! Dio Maddin is Brennan Williams. He used to play NFL and wrestle as Marcellus Black. Was trained by Booker T. Hopefully not at commentary.

[Emperor Smeat]

Mystery of Tom Phillips' status with all the new commentary changes got revealed today.

He got demoted to the NXT UK brand.

[ClockShot]

I dunno.

He packed his bags and moved across the pond. Company probably paid for it all.

I'd call it a promotion.
