– As noted, WWE NXT announcer Vic Joseph made his WWE Main Event commentary debut at this week’s pre-RAW tapings in Grand Rapids, MI as TJ Perkins faced Gran Metalik while Rhyno & Heath Slater faced Curt Hawkins & Curtis Axel. Vic called the show with Corey Graves.
Above is video of Joseph reacting to his first play-by-play on the main roster. Joseph said he was still nervous and called it an experience he will never forget. He mentioned getting a lot of help from the WWE other announcers and said he hopes he did the team justice.
