Corey Graves’ recent ups and downs in WWE may finally be settling, as reports suggest his return to the NXT commentary desk is imminent. Despite a whirlwind of speculation fueled by controversial social media posts and a sudden absence from television, Graves is reportedly scheduled for tonight’s NXT.

Fightful Select’s Corey Brennan reported that Graves is listed for commentary and is expected to attend rehearsals at the WWE Performance Center. However, conflicting reports from PWInsider earlier in the day suggested he would not be at the taping, adding to the confusion surrounding his status.

Sean Ross Sapp shed some light on the situation, noting Graves’ “tumultuous” past few weeks. Since rejoining the NXT announce team at New Year’s Evil, Graves publicly expressed dissatisfaction with the move on social media. This was followed by his absence from the subsequent NXT episode, leading to speculation about his future in WWE.

Sapp dismissed rumors that the situation is part of a storyline, stating, “There has been no indication from Graves or those close to him that this situation is a work.”

Graves originally tweeted the following:

“Imagine chasing your dream.

Then being TOLD (not deciding) that you’re no longer physically able to pursue your dream.

Then you dedicate your life to something ‘dream adjacent’ and being pretty f**king awesome at it.

And then, when it’s time to enjoy the fruits of your labor, being told you’re not famous enough for your own job.

Just in case you’ve wondered where I’ve been.”

For now, fans will have to wait for tonight’s episode of NXT to see whether Graves officially returns to his commentary role.

So far, WWE has announced the following for tonight’s episode of NXT:

NXT Championship Match: Oba Femi (c) vs. Eddy Thorpe

NXT North American Championship Match: Tony D’Angelo (c) vs. Ridge Holland

NXT Heritage Cup Match: Lexis King (c) vs. Charlie Dempsey
