Vic Joseph worked his way up through the ranks in WWE from being the commentator on 205 Live to replacing Michael Cole on the company's flagship show last year when he was chosen as part of Raw's announce team following the WWE draft.

Interestingly, this was a move that only lasted a few months since Joseph was replaced by Tom Phillips the day after the Royal Rumble, but it proves that the company has high hopes for the commentator.

Since Joseph is still relatively unknown, it means that not many fans are aware that he and WWE legend Rhyno are quite close. Rhyno and Joseph met around seven years ago and it was Rhyno who helped him to make it to WWE, the duo have remained close throughout the past few years and Rhyno recently revealed that he was the godfather to Joseph's son.

"I don't know if you guys know the commentator, Vic Joseph, from WWE? I'm his kid's godfather. This is probably seven years ago now. He was in baseball. [He did a] really good job in baseball. [He] went to school in announcing and all that stuff, but his passion was in wrestling, and I [saw] that the guy would literally sit in his car for nine hours, one way, to drive to independent show. [He would] watch a show, pick my brain, and try to figure out the question he's asking me on his own. We put together a five-year plan, and he signed with WWE. When I first met the guy, I didn't like him. I thought he was a real a**hole," he said via WrestlingInc.
