Kevin Patrick Receives New WWE Role

Everything is coming up Milhouse for Kevin Patrick.

After beginning in WWE as a backstage interviewer and on Raw Talk, Patrick recently replaced Jimmy Smith as the play-by-play announcer on Monday Night Raw. Now, Sports Illustrated have revealed that Patrick is the new co-host of After the Bell with Corey Graves.

"I got to show a bit of myself on Raw Talk, and now I get the chance to talk with Corey and take the listener on a journey backstage, giving insight into how we're feeling and what we’re seeing. We have access to the most fascinating minds and personalities in the industry, and our goal is to bring people in with us, share that insight, have a bit of fun and hopefully entertain," Patrick told SI about his new role.

"I'm grateful to do this with Corey. He has a love, passion, and affection for WWE. He lives for this and absolutely loves it. If you can't meet that level of passion, then forget about it. My goal is to meet him at the station and take that same ride. I'm learning so much alongside him. I think he's a genius about how he approaches this, and his success is rooted in his passion."

Patrick will take over as co-host of After the Bell beginning with this week's episode. They will interview a talent ahead of the Crown Jewel pay-per-view.
