While WWE might have turned out to be the most attractive and intriguing wrestling companies in the industry, things wouldn’t have been the same without the Voice of WWE, Michael Cole. The legend has been in the company for almost three decades now and his voice has turned out to be a gold mine for the company. 

Though Cole has been seen in the ring as well in the past, he has turned out to be much better star on the commentary team than in the squared circle. Cole is known to be the best voice that WWE ever had and has now been hailed as the ‘Greatest of All-Time’. 

WWE NXT commentator Vic Joseph, during a recent interview with TV Insider, stated that he had learnt a lot from Cole as the Voice of WWE. Not only that, but Joseph also praised Corey Graves for his work behind the mic. 

“Michael Cole is the greatest of all time. I’ll say it again. He is the greatest of all time. I’ve learned so much from him. Here’s the thing about Michael Cole. He doesn’t want me to be Michael Cole. He doesn’t want Corey Graves to be Michael Cole. We all have our own distinct voices. It’s how you as a listener hear it.”

“When I went to NXT, I didn’t want to be Mauro [Ranallo]. I don’t want to be Michael Cole. I want to be myself. But if you’re the greatest of all time why would you not want to pick a few things from them? There is no quarterback in the world that’s not looking at Tom Brady’s mechanics or Patrick Mahomes’ footwork. If you don’t study people who are the greatest, I think it’s foolish if you don’t.”

“I will take as much as I can from Michael Cole and Corey Graves, for that matter, and mold it into my own. Then hopefully get to their level.”

While Michael Cole and Corey Graves are clearly the pioneers in this case, Vic Joseph has also been doing an incredible job alongside Booker T behind the mics on NXT. Ringside News will keep you updated with this story.
