Oresama Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 Quote WWE today announced that Adnan Virk will make his debut as the new play-by-play voice of Monday Night Raw tonight at 8/7c on USA Network. The news was first reported by Richard Deitsch of The Athletic with details on Virk's path to WWE. “I'm elated to be joining the premier sports-entertainment company in my new role with WWE,” said Adnan Virk. “As a kid who grew up idolizing WWE Hall of Famers like Bret Hart and Ric Flair, the opportunity to call modern legends like Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley, Randy Orton, Charlotte Flair and so many others alongside Corey Graves and Byron Saxton is truly humbling." In addition to becoming the voice of Monday Night Raw, Adnan Virk will continue his on-air host role across MLB Network’s programming this season. Additionally, he hosts The GM Shuffle podcast with Michael Lombardi on the Cadence 13 network and the popular movie podcast “Cinephile” with Meadowlark Media. Previously, Adnan worked at ESPN where he primarily covered college football and baseball. He was also a studio host for ESPN's college football coverage and a play-by-play announcer and studio host for the network's coverage of Major League Baseball. He has guest hosted SportsCenter, Outside the Lines, Olbermann, ESPN’s coverage of the College World Series, and Mike & Mike. Virk also hosted backstage Oscar's coverage for ABC's "The Oscars: All Access." Virk will be joined at ringside for every Monday Night Raw by analyst Corey Graves, who began his commentating career in 2014 and has distinguished himself with a unique style and opinionated insights, and analyst Byron Saxton, a veteran with more than a decade of experience behind the microphone. Tom Phillips will become the new host of 205 Live and oversee special projects for WWE’s programming on Peacock and at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando. Phillips also remains in his role of Senior Manager, On Air Talent. Samoa Joe remains part of the WWE talent roster. Article Link to comment

Yeah, besides people who have appeared but weren't really signed like Mercedes Martinez, Priscilla Kelly and Ben Carter. Link to comment
Guest Fight Me. Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Huge. Just hope they don't stick him on 205 Live. Link to comment

Bushy. Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 How is Mike Bailey singing in 2021 huge ? anyways, I never liked him when watching PWG years ago. Fight me. (No pun intended) Link to comment
Counting Lights Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 I've heard his name once or twice, but don't really know who he is, is he anything special? Link to comment
Guest Fight Me. Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 He was on the verge of blowing up a few years ago until he got banned from the US for five years due to visa issues. Ban just got lifted very recently. Link to comment
Generations Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 I really don't know much about him...but he seems like a WWE guy to me. Like...he clearly has a following, and WWE will be able to use him. But, I don't think he would be a "huge" signing for a place like AEW or something. So...this is probably the best place for him to land. He's already lost a bunch of time off his career with the visa situation, so going to WWE and getting mainstream exposure while his fans also have a place to watch him seems like the best thing for both parties.

Bushy. Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 He’s not a WWE style guy at all. At least last I’ve seen of him. Link to comment
EJ! Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Naomi been using his kick combo for years. there’s your Mania match right there Link to comment
Lunchbox Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 Late, but Bea sucks. And not only does she suck she kinda dangerous and didn't really improve in Stardom. Link to comment

I guess it was confusing how I worded it. I just mean...signing with NXT will generate more buzz than anywhere else. His followers will already want to see him, and the WWE machine will do a decent job of pushing whatever his new gimmick is. If he signed with a place like AEW, you would have his current followers, but no one else would really care, IMO. They probably wouldn't do a great job of establishing him as someone to care about. For someone who already lost 5 of his best years to shine...he will fit better in a system that is designed to hammer out stars than he will in a place that has a revolving door policy.
