The WWE has overlooked Corey Graves and opt for someone else to temporarily replace Pat McAfee in the commentators table alongside Michael Cole for RAW.

Pat McAfee is already taking time off from his WWE RAW commentary duties. McAfee returned to WWE last month as a surprise commentator for Saturday Night’s Main Event. He followed that up by returning to RAW Netflix premiere on January 6 alongside Michael Cole.

Gary Woodland had a brief vacation with wife Gabby on the Big Island before coming over to Oahu for the Sony Open. The final passengers to board were in the first row — former President Barrack Obama, his wife and two daughters. “I was surprised he was on a commercial flight.”

Wade Barrett (not Corey Graves) will fill in for Pat McAfee on commentary during Monday's "WWE Raw" as McAfee will be working the College Football Championship.

Wade Barrett will fill in for Pat McAfee on the January 20th episode of WWE RAW. ESPN previously announced that McAfee would be at the CFP National Championship game on January 20th, which would mean that he would miss Monday’s episode of WWE RAW.

Pat McAfee is missing next week’s (Jan. 20) episode of WWE Raw in Dallas due to his gig with ESPN covering the College Football Playoff National Championship at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. This is the part where Corey Graves would normally be called up from the bench to replace Pat as Raw’s color commentator for the night.
