Pat McAfee's commentary during Otis vs. Rey Mysterio should've raised a smile or two at the Gorilla position backstage. The new announcer put on Vince McMahon's gravelly voice and described Otis as a "full on savage, pal".

Anyone who listens to Bruce Prichard's 'Something To Wrestle With' podcast will recognise that. McMahon loves the word "savage", and he ends most of his sentences with "pal" too. Pat obviously couldn't resist this minor rib.
