WWE SmackDown announcer Corey Graves has featured frequently throughout the most recent series of Total Divas. Reflecting on the experience of sharing his relationship with Carmella while having film crews follow them around, Graves confessed: “it’s not something I was looking to make a habit out of.”

Speaking on the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast, Graves explained that “It was kind of an accidental occurrence in the first place. It was really wild because they say, ‘oh, be yourself.’ But I can’t be myself when there are cameras there all the time because that is how you end up in jail.”

He continued, “It wasn’t something that I had planned, but it was a lot of fun. The crew we worked with was a lot of fun. They took us out and put us in some pretty fun situations. I didn’t hate it. I have not watched it back yet as it was a pretty dark and bizarre place in my life, so it is what it is. It’s weird, the social media response to it has been unanimously positive, which is weird. That makes it uncomfortable for me. I’m not used to people being nice on social media.”

Graves recently made negative comments over NXT commentator Mauro Ranallo’s output during NXT TakeOver: WarGames. Ranallo would subsequently delete his Twitter account. Graves has since apologized.
