Why Booker T Says WWE Broadcaster Michael Cole Won’t Ever Be Able To Retire

While Booker did express that he was happy to see Cole on both shows, he did raise a question about the “NXT” commentary team. Specifically, Booker T wonders about the future of his broadcast partner, Vic Joseph.

“I’m glad in a lot of ways, but I’m perplexed in certain ways,” Booker T explained. “I’m waiting on Vic to get his shot. I’m waiting on Vic Joseph to get a piece of the action.”

Vic Joseph joined WWE in 2017 to work commentary for “WWE Main Event.” He’s gone on to impress and was a color commentator on “Raw” in 2019, replacing Michael Cole when he moved over to “Smackdown.” He’s been the “NXT” color commentator since 2020, working alongside Booker T, who returned to the booth in 2022. Booker T remains optimistic about the future of the “NXT” team, though he is waiting to see what will happen should Joseph get called up.

“The ‘NXT’ commentary team, Vic and I, we’re still together,” Booker T reassured listeners. “I like that. I’m waiting on Vic to be able to get his come-up. But I’m wondering if Vic moves up, who’s gonna move into that spot as well? I just can’t work with anybody.”
