Pat McAfee’s Return to WWE was Kept Under Wraps

Published on

Pat McAfee is a celebrated and imaginative personality in WWE, known for his outstanding skills as a wrestler and commentator on Friday Night SmackDown. After a hiatus, he made a surprise comeback at the Royal Rumble, which was kept confidential.

Pat McAfee made his WWE entry in 2018, sparking a rivalry with Adam Cole. By 2021, he shifted to being a color commentator on SmackDown, joining forces with Michael Cole. McAfee’s endearing personality and unique approach have garnered praise from fans and industry experts, bringing a fresh perspective to commentary.

McAfee was off WWE TV for a while but returned at the Royal Rumble live event. Michael Cole greeted him at the commentary desk, but Corey Grave was angry.

PWInsider reports Pat McAfee’s switch to commentary was kept secret, known by only a few in WWE. This led to a rush to get him a chair and headset to join Michael Cole and Corey Graves at the desk.

Further reports indicate Cole and Graves were unaware of McAfee’s return, making their reactions authentic. McAfee’s regular return status is unclear, but updates will be provided.
