Details on New WWE Announcer Revealed

[Dale]

Blake Chadwick has been hired to work as a new announcer/commentator for the WWE NXT brand.

A new report from Fightful Select notes that Chadwick will be using the “Blake Howard” name in WWE. He has updated his Instagram handle to reflect the change, and can now be found there at @blakehowardwwe.

Howard began working with WWE this past Tuesday night, and will debut on Friday’s NXT Level Up episode, calling the show with Byron Saxton. Sudu Shah left the brand in mid-January, and Vic Joseph has been calling Level Up with Saxton since then.

Howard has worked for various companies in the last 19 years, including Coastal Championship Wrestling, WrestleCade, Ring Warriors, Combat Fights Unlimited, Camp Leapfrog, Virginia Championship Wrestling, West Coast Wrestling Connection, Titan Fighting, and others.​

Chadwick to Howard. He went from the actor of the Black Panther to Big Bang Theory character. I am so sorry.

Blake Chadwick, a regular for a number of Florida-based promotions including Coastal Championship Wrestling, will debut tonight as a member of the WWE NXT Level Up broadcast team under his new on-screen name of Blake Howard:

PWInsider.com is told the Howard surname was chosen in honor of the late Howard Brody, who passed away last year following complications from a heart bypass surgery. Brody promoted Florida and Las Vegas, among many other markets over the course of a long life of promoting, including a reign as the President of the National Wrestling Alliance.

Chadwick worked for Howard Brody's Ring Warriors promotion in its most recent iteration.​
