WWE RAW and SmackDown Live color commentator Corey Graves got some backlash from fans on social after he decided to give some high praise to one top WWE NXT Superstar.
Graves praised The Velveteen Dream following the broadcast of Sunday’s Halftime Heat during the halftime of the Super Bowl. This special aired on platforms such as WWE’s streaming service, WWE Network, YouTube, and social media accounts. The match saw Aleister Black, Velveteen Dream, and Ricochet battle it out with Adam Cole, Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa in a six-man tag team match.
Graves was so impressed by the performance of The Velveteen Dream that he expressed his belief that Dream should be on the main roster. Whether that be on the flagship show of WWE, Monday Night RAW, or Smackdown Live. For the announcer, he questioned why Dream isn’t on the main roster yet.
Graves started the series of tweets with, “Tell me again why @VelveteenWWE isn’t on #RAW or #SDLive yet?#HalftimeHeat/. Wow. The internet sure has an amazing way of turning a compliment into something negative. I shouldn’t be surprised, but for some reason, I still am.”
Wow. The internet sure has an amazing way of turning a compliment into something negative.
I shouldn’t be surprised, but for some reason, I still am.

Dear @VelveteenWWE,
I apologize. You should NEVER aspire to take your talents to the global stage, or the money that comes with it.
The internet has taught me that it’s bad for you.
Sincere apologies,
Graves— Corey Graves (@WWEGraves) February 4, 2019
