1) Big NXT Announce Team Changes

Corey Graves announced on the NXT Takeover: San Antonio kickoff show that he would be stepping away from the NXT commentary booth to focus on RAW.

It was also announced that he would be replaced by Nigel McGuinness. In case you are unfamiliar, Nigel just called the WWE UK Championship tournament and his work alongside Michael Cole was very well-received. He is a former wrestler and is probably best known for his time in Ring of Honor on the announce team.

Graves will be a big loss but Nigel is a fantastic replacement. It was clear with Graves’ performance on RAW that he probably wouldn’t be sticking around NXT for too much longer. Seems like a good trade-off for fans of NXT.
