Michael Cole has become a fixture at ringside for WWE RAW. He has become the most prominent commentator for WWE over the last decade. While Hall of Famer Jim Ross was known as the voice of WWE for a long time, Cole stepped up to take that place and, in recent years, has been acknowledged for filling those very tough shoes.

Michael Cole usually works with Pat McAfee on RAW, but the latter took some time away from WWE to recover from his hectic schedule while also getting ready for his other job.

Now, Cole has teamed up with Corey Graves on the show, with the two of them working together on a weekly basis.
