There will be a new voice on WWE Raw tonight, live from the
Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado, as ESPN’s Joe Tessitore will
kick off his WWE broadcast career alongside with Wade
Barrett.

The 53-year-old from New York is a sportscaster for both ABC
and ESPN and is the lead for boxing events on ESPN,
announces college football on ESPN and ABC, and also did
play-by-play for Monday Night Football in the past. He is
also a life-long wrestling fan.

WWE announced that Tessitore signed with them in July. He
will keep doing Raw until January 2025 when he then switches
to Smackdown as Michael Cole and Pat McAfee take over for
the Netflix move.

He was introduced to the WWE audience during the SummerSlam
pre-show by Michael Cole.
