What's the story?
We know and love Corey Graves as the voice of RAW and SmackDown Live, where he plays the part of the resident color commentator. He's the only common ingredient on both brands, and some fans have taken exception to the fact.
Recently a fan voiced his displeasure at Graves being on both brands, and let it be known that he'd prefer to see Graves on one brand following the Superstar Shake-Up. Very surprisingly, Graves responded to him.
