Update On Why WWE Removed Booker T From RAW Commentary

WWE Hall Of Famer Booker T was recently removed from the RAW broadcast team and replaced with the recently re-signed Jonathan Coachman. There has been much speculation as to why this was done, with some even suggesting it was because of his rivalry with Corey Graves.

Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter reveals that the real and simple reason was because Coachman re-signed and they wanted him back on commentary as he was always loyal to the company before he left to work with ESPN. Meltzer notes that it had absolutely nothing to do with Corey Graves, which is largely being viewed as a work.

WWE Hall of Famer Booker T announced on Twitter that he has extended an invitation for Graves to appear on his show tomorrow to which Graves agreed to do so.

I’m going to address all of the news from this past week on my show tomorrow. There’s been a lot of things said and I’d like to publicly invite @WWEGraves to call in and clear the air.
