WWE has announced new commentary teams for Raw, SmackDown and NXT on October 6, and with those changes comes a departure.
The new commentary team for Raw is Kevin Patrick and Corey Graves – the previous team had been Graves with Jimmy Smith and Byron Saxton.
Jimmy Smith has confirmed that he is done with WWE as of this announcement. He tweeted:
Just wanted to say, now that the story is officially out, that my time with the WWE is officially done. Had a lot of fun and met some great people. Really and truly blown away by the acceptance from the WWE fans! You folks make it work every week and your enthusiasm was amazing!
Saxton, on the other hand, is staying with WWE as a backstage interviewer.
