It worked. Commentary is one of the most important aspects of any wrestling show as the broadcasters are tasked with guiding the fans in the direction the company wants them to go. Having the right broadcast team can be a huge upgrade to any show but there are times when changes have to be made. That was the case this week, but things went better than expected.

This week’s Monday Night Raw saw Joe Tessitore make his debut as part of the WWE broadcast team, where he served as lead play by play commentator. According to Fightful Select by way of Cagesideseats.com, WWE is said to have been positive about Tessitore’s debut. While there were expected growing pains, Tessitore is said to have done well. Tessitore is expected to move to SmackDown within the next few months as WWE continues to shuffle its commentary teams.

It went well. Check out how Tessitore did on his first show:

Opinion: This is the kind of change that has to take place every so often and Tessitore did indeed to well enough. Going from any other sport to professional wrestling is not going to be easy and Tessitore had clearly put in the effort to make this work. No commentator is going to be perfect all the time and while Tessitore had some rough moments, there was nothing that made it feel like this was a huge mistake.
