The Royal Rumble and NXT TakeOver: San Antonio took place this past weekend and the link between both events was the voice calling the action. Corey Graves is the color commentator of NXT and part of RAW’s announce team. He’s quickly risen to become the voice of WWE’s ‘New Era,’ a period marked with young and talented wrestlers pulled from the developmental system, the indies and international promotions. A former wrestler himself, Graves has flourished as a rebellious and entertaining talker, connecting with the hard-to-please wrestling audience, saying and shouting things many of us would like to say.

At the start of the weekend festivities, Corey took another step in his career, announcing that he would be stepping down from his role in NXT. While Corey leaving NXT is bittersweet, his expanding presence on the main roster is a natural progression. Last week, Myspace chatted with Corey about wrestling and his role with WWE.
