The WWE commentator took to X following Monday Night RAW to address the change in his voice, explaining that he had learned an unexpected lesson about performing at high altitude.

“This weekend I learned that altitude can affect your vocal cords. I sincerely apologize for not sounding like myself for such a momentous occasion. But, if I wasn’t dead, I wasn’t missing a moment. I hope you guys enjoyed the shows as much as I did. See you Friday 🇲🇽,” Corey Graves wrote.

Graves added that despite feeling exhausted, there was no chance he was going to miss the action. The explanation came after a demanding stretch for

Corey Graves’ tight commentating schedule and a possible in-ring comeback

The condition was still noticeable when Graves returned to the commentary desk for Monday Night RAW on September 14. He once again worked through the show despite clearly not sounding like his usual self.

Corey Graves had already spent the weekend calling AAA action. He served as an English-language commentator for TripleMania alongside WWE Hall of Famer John Bradshaw Layfield (JBL) before returning to WWE duties with Joe Tessitore.

Mexico City sits at a significantly higher elevation than many of the cities where WWE normally holds its weekend television shows. Graves’ comments suggest that the combination of altitude, extensive speaking, and a packed commentating schedule contributed to the strain on his voice. Still, he made it clear that he had no regrets about working through the weekend.

Graves has also been making headlines beyond commentary. Just days before TripleMania 34, he revealed that he has been training again and is medically cleared to wrestle, opening the door to a possible in-ring return. The former NXT Superstar specifically mentioned AAA as a potential destination and said, “Never say never,” when discussing the possibility.
