The NXT Announcer Pays Tribute to His Late Father
The wrestling world often showcases larger-than-life characters and storylines, but real-life tragedies and emotions run deep behind the scenes. Such is the case for WWE NXT announcer Vic Joseph, who recently shared the somber news of his father’s passing. Joseph, who has been an integral voice on NXT, partnering with wrestling stalwarts like Wade Barrett and now Booker T, took to social media to express his grief.
He fondly recalled watching wrestling with his father, emphasizing the unwavering support he received throughout his journey. Joseph’s tweet resonated with many: “Yesterday I lost my dad. Watching wrestling with him is my earliest memory. He stood by my dreams till the end. Last night’s show was a tribute to him. A heartfelt thanks to everyone involved and the fans for providing a brief respite.”
Notably, on the night Joseph dedicated to his father’s memory, NXT was in a ratings battle with AEW Dynamite. During this challenging time, the wrestling fraternity extends its sympathies to Vic Joseph and his family.
