WWE FRIDAY NIGHT SMACKDOWN/USA NETWORK: Michael Cole misses Smackdown, replaced by Wade Barrett


Posted on 10/19/124 by Colin Vassallo



Raw’s Wade Barrett had to temporarily move to the blue brand
yesterday and re-join his former broadcast colleague Corey
Graves due to Michael Cole missing the show.

It’s unclear why Cole missed the show but Graves said that he
was on a “special assignment” whatever that might mean.

The voice of WWE had a fantastic streak going of never missing
a show from 1997 until 20 years later, where he had to miss a
broadcast due to his son getting married in 2017. Apart from
that, the only other show Cole has missed was last October for
the Raw season premiere and was replaced by Kevin Patrick.
