It's Time for WWE to Admit Pat McAfee Is Not an Announcer Anymore

On this week's edition of RAW on Netflix, we learned about the next chapter in the saga of WWE color commentator Pat McAfee and former World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther. And it's a sign of things to come for the former NFL punter, as he will come face-to-face with The Ring General at Backlash 2025 on May 10 in St. Louis, Missouri. With the increasing role McAfee is playing on WWE programming, it's time perhaps to wonder if WWE is not overusing the announcer, taking valuable TV time away from the company's actual wrestlers.
