I actually thought that this was an absolutely brilliant episode!

#2 Worst: Corey Graves on commentary

Corey Graves makes it difficult to enjoy the WWE product

A colour commentator should know when to speak and when to stop talking to let those watching at home enjoy the action to the fullest. I used to be a huge advocate for Corey Graves but he has become insufferable these days. Graves does not know when to stop talking and takes away from the action taking place on screen.

One just needs to look back at Jerry 'The King' Lawler doing commentary to realise how important timing is. Even JBL spoke only when he needed to, and did not discuss Mandy Rose across every single match, on and on and on! It would have been funny if he'd done it once or twice, but it happened so many times I wanted to pull my hair out.

@WWEGraves dude, no one really cares about updates on @WWE_MandyRose. Please stop telling us when we wanna hear about important stuff like why @WWEDanielBryan decided to name the WWE belt #Daisy

Graves also ruined the moment between The Miz and his father with his yapping! I know many across the internet felt the same.
