10 Things Post-WrestleMania 37 Raw Told Us About WWE’s Future
6. Adnan Virk Will Fit In
Twitter likes to act like wrestling commentary is easy.
It's not, especially in the tightly-controlled environments WWE fosters. New Raw play-by-play man Adnan Virk was harshly treated by the social media trolls on Tuesday morning, but everyone deserves a chance - one three-hour show is hardly a long enough period to fairly judge his skills.
Virk just needs time to bed in. So he made some mistakes that Corey Graves and Byron Saxton had to clean up? Big whoop. This was a respectable performance from someone who'll need to adjust to hearing people (like Vince) scream down his headset every two seconds and learn WWE's unique presentation quirks.
Give the dude a shot.
In time, Adnan will get up to speed and become the announcer his employer wants. He has significant broadcasting experience, is a fan of the product and will benefit from having Graves and Saxton there to tidy up any niggling storytelling issues.
