WWE Rumor Roundup: Request made by Champion to lose title, Top Superstars to be sent back to NXT - 27th December 2019

#4 New announce team member for RAW

Samoa Joe's short yet enjoyable stint as an announcer on RAW has sadly come to an end.

The former United States Champion worked his last show as a member of the RAW commentary team on the previous episode of RAW.

Dave Meltzer revealed in the Newsletter that the WWE will reveal a new announcer to replace Joe on the next episode of RAW.

The identity of the person, however, has been kept a secret. Who will it be? Could Dio Maddin, who is reportedly training for his in-ring return, come back to join Vic Joseph and Jerry Lawler? Could it be a new face or a seasoned veteran? We will have to wait and watch.
