Shakeup in WWE SmackDown Commentary Team After Kevin Patrick’s Exit

Search for Permanent Commentator Post-Patrick’s Departure


Summary

– Kevin Patrick was fired from his role as lead play-by-play commentator for WWE SmackDown.

– Michael Cole temporarily fills the position alongside Corey Graves, but this isn’t a long-term plan.

– WWE is actively looking for a permanent replacement for the commentary team.

The WWE SmackDown commentary team is currently in a state of transition following the recent firing of Kevin Patrick. Patrick, who had ascended to lead play-by-play commentator, was released due to performance issues. In the aftermath, veteran commentator Michael Cole stepped in to fill the void, temporarily teaming up with Corey Graves.

However, wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer noted this arrangement is expected to last for a while. Cole’s current role on SmackDown is seen as a stopgap measure, and WWE is actively searching for a permanent voice to take over the commentary duties. This search signifies WWE’s commitment to maintaining a high broadcasting standard for one of its flagship shows.

Meltzer said:

”He’s not going to be doing Friday much longer. He may not even be doing it this week. I was told Michael Cole has it for now but this is not a permanent thing. I don’t know who the new guy is, but I was just told Michael Cole doing SmackDown, it’s still a one time thing.”
