Corey Graves Addresses Changes To "WWE After The Bell" Podcast


Corey Graves has a new co-host for his "WWE After The Bell" podcast.

The WWE broadcast team member and host of the aforementioned official podcast of WWE recently spoke with Sports Illustrated for an interview, during which he spoke about the addition of Kevin Patrick to "WWE After The Bell."

Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview.

On the benefits of working with Kevin Patrick on "WWE After The Bell": “Now we get an extra few hours together, and Kevin gets to learn another aspect of our business. There are a lot of different conversations on After The Bell we’ll never have on Raw, and this is another opportunity for us to succeed as a team.”

On changing from Vic Joseph to Kevin Patrick on "WWE After The Bell" and their debut episode together dropping on Friday with an interview with someone scheduled for WWE Crown Jewel 2022: “Vic Joseph has been my co-host for the last year or so, and Vic is awesome. Now we’re putting a fresh coat of paint on After The Bell, and our crew is trying something new here. Kevin did a guest spot a few weeks back, and we had flow and chemistry. So we’ll work to capture that dynamic every week. I’m excited to see where it goes.”

On how he has never had more creative freedom with the show than he currently does: “We’ll still have special guests and talk about all our brands, but the fans are about to learn a lot more about what happens behind the scenes. With all the recent changes in WWE, I’ve gotten a lot more leeway and a little more freedom with the podcast. I’ve spent more than half my life in this business, and over 11 years in the biggest company in the world, so I have a pretty unique perspective on why things are the way they are. My intent is to give a new perspective, and I think fans are going to be very interested.”
