WWE has always been blessed with some of the best creative minds behind the announce table. The likes of Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler in the past have been very popular.

Though, a top WWE star has given a disappointing update regarding his future in the Stamford-based company.

Interaction with Daily Star

Former Intercontinental champion Wade Barrett recently had an interaction with Daily Star. He discussed that McAfee may not return to the SmackDown commentary team anytime soon.

Incredibly talented guy

“But in terms of the foreseeable, it’s going to be me and Cole going forward. Pat McAfee is always going to be a friend of WWE. He’s an incredibly talented guy and we’re all fans of his, too, but he has a lot on his plate,” added the former King of The Ring.

Sadness from all quarters

The information from Barrett was met with sadness from all quarters. Social media users took to Twitter to let their discontent on the matter known.
