Jerry "The King" Lawler is set to return to WWE television as a commentator, and will be a part of a new-look RAW commentary panel, alongside Vic Joseph and Dio Maddin.

Pro Wrestling Sheet's Ryan Satin has revealed that the WWE Hall of Famer's return to commentary duties will be a short one. He stated that WWE are looking for alternatives for Lawler on RAW.

According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the decision to hire Maddin as one of the three commentators was taken by RAW executive director Paul Heyman.

Maddin was moved to the 205 Live commentary team earlier this month, before getting his big break and a switch to RAW.

The trio of Michael Cole, Corey Graves, and Renee Young, who were the previous RAW commentators, have been moved to SmackDown, ahead of the blue brand's switch to FOX next week.
