Corey Graves Still Locked in with WWE for Years Despite Speculation

Corey Graves isn’t going anywhere. Despite weeks of speculation over his WWE future following a series of frustrated tweets, Graves remains under contract with the company for at least two more years.

According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that Graves “has two years left on his contract. He wasn’t looking to leave the company even though many in the company viewed his tweets as that.” That should put an end to the chatter that he was on his way out, even though some within WWE took his social media posts as a sign of potential dissatisfaction.

Graves has been making his presence felt on WWE programming lately. He stepped back into the NXT commentary booth on January 21 and then called the action on the January 22 episode of WWE Speed, where he covered the #1 Contender’s Tournament match between Chris Sabin and Grayson Waller. His return to commentary has sparked even more conversation, with some wondering if his recent comments could be setting up a bigger storyline—maybe even an in-ring return.

For now, though, Graves is sticking with what he does best—calling the action. His contract status confirms that WWE isn’t letting him go anytime soon, and despite the drama surrounding his tweets, he seems to be settling back into a regular role.
