Tom Phillips replaces Vic Joseph on WWE Raw commentary team
WWE has made a change to the commentary team for Raw.
PWInsider reported last night that Tom Phillips is replacing Vic Joseph on the Raw commentary team. Their report has been confirmed by our Dave Meltzer.
Phillips and Jerry Lawler also represented Raw on commentary at the Royal Rumble last night. PWInsider wrote that Joseph is still with WWE and the decision to make the change was made within the last week.
With Mauro Ranallo having a commitment with Showtime Boxing, Phillips also called Saturday night’s NXT vs. NXT UK Worlds Collide special.
Phillips was part of the SmackDown commentary team prior to WWE shaking up their announcer lineup ahead of the show’s move to FOX. Phillips joined the NXT announce team after that and also did play-by-play for 205 Live.
Raw’s fallout from the Royal Rumble is taking place at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas tonight. Liv Morgan vs. Lana — with Rusev and Bobby Lashley both banned from ringside — has been announced for the show.
