That would be awesome but I don't think Corey can translate Japanese to enough content for the website like Chris does. But he would hopefully be able to travel outside of Tokyo for events so I guess it's a tradeoff
Wait you saying years of screaming Kinshasa doesn't count

This is probably a hot take but maybe Corey would still be on the main roster as a commentator if he stopped acting like Larry Zbyszko. :ortonout

WOR = radio so not an article, just discussion on the show.

quoting a redditor :
He himself said on WOR that he believed this to be work until he heard from many people in WWE that it isn’t.

I will need the voice of truth @Chris to listen to the episode and tell us what was really said

He still doesn't buy it and thinks Corey is doing a good Pillman thing where no one knows bc these people all believe it's a shoot. He thinks it would be a dumb work as well though, but I think the sheer amount of people insisting it's a shoot are swaying him

The tweet about "more famous" seems really targeted at Pat, I don't know if I rate this as much. Wade didn't replace him on SmackDown, Corey's team moved to Raw and Pat replaced him

no his issue is with the company passing him over and from his pov he's getting bumped by someone he has seniority over. At least that is how I understood it. It happens in a lot of workplaces

it is one of the issues where I can see both sides having valid points. if it is not a work and he wants out, I wonder if people will support him.

After his comments regarding Mercedes he can go fuck himself on his hypocrisy if true

He's allowed to be mad about it, I get why he would be. I don't really get why done are insistent he shouldn't be. I also thought he'd gotten a lot better the last couple years so care a little more about it myself, but tbh I completely get him being bumped for Pat myself so I don't even think WWE is "in the wrong" he's just allowed to be upset about it.

I still would have done 3 man on SmackDown with him tho, then he could still do Speed too. Seemed the most logical thing but I guess HHH really doesn't like them

Yeah I don't really have sympathy for Corey the person as much I can say this, he's had his share of bonehead comments

3-man SD booth would be cool, or Raw.

I'd much rather have Graves over Booker on NXT fwiw, he is so fucking trash and takes you away from segments and matches
