10 Lessons WWE's Main Roster Is Slowly Learning From NXT's Success
3. More Corey Graves
It's not just Paul Heyman that believes that Corey Graves is a top notch announcer deserving of a greater opportunity in WWE, it's this columnist, too. If you're pushing Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Xavier Woods, Becky Lynch and Paige as a top acts, it'd certainly behoove you to have someone calling their matches that probably knows more about each of them than Jerry Lawler and Booker T combined. Corey Graves is in an intriguing position. The ex-wrestler was thrown into his announcing gig due to injury, with no true expectation or awareness of whether he'd succeed or fail in his new role. In succeeding with flying colors, with each week, his value to what will in short order likely become a youthful refresh of WWE grows exponentially. Graves is great and is deserving of a much brighter spotlight.
