With Joe Tessitore out for the next couple of months due to
college football duties, the Smackdown announce team going
forward for the time being will be Michael Cole and Corey
Graves.
Cole will be pulling double duty and will also be calling
Monday Night Raw on Netflix and will be flanked by Wade
Barrett, who until two weeks ago was doing commentary on
Smackdown with Tessitore.
College football ends its season in mid-January 2026 so
until then, Tessitore will be doing his work for ESPN.
Pat McAfee, who was with Cole on Raw until June of last
year, is not expected to return to commentary full time due
to his already packed schedule.
