Corey Graves Reportedly Pulled From Jan. 14 Edition Of WWE NXT

Johnson indicates in his report that Graves was seen leaving at Orlando International Airport going through TSA, leaving the city where NXT is taped at the WWE Performance Center. Graves returned to NXT as part of a three-man announce team alongside Vic Joseph and Booker T at NXT New Year's Evil Jan. 7.

Graves was a former WWE NXT Tag Team Champion with Adrian Neville (PAC in AEW), but was forced into retirement in 2014 after suffering from concussion-related issues. He became a broadcaster for NXT shortly thereafter, and was eventually promoted to the main roster as a color commentator and occasional play-by-play man.

However, since WWE moved Monday Night Raw to Netflix, it shifted the broadcast teams around. Michael Cole and Pat McAfee became the primary team for Raw, while Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett were moved to Smackdown.

Early Tuesday morning, former WWE announcer Alex Del Barrio echoed some of Graves' frustrating sentiments in reflecting on his own time with the company. Del Barrio confirmed to The Takedown on SI he was not referring directly to Graves in his response.

It is unclear as of yet whether or not Graves will be replaced on commentary.
