If anyone was like me and not super excited for Tall Paul announcing listen to him on Renee's pod. It has been a dream of his a long time and I guess I forgot the dude's range, but he sounds really into it.

Him and Tony should be excellent.

I hope they're good and have fun together. I know it'll take awhile to settle into a real groove like Taz and Excalibur have, but it'd be real cool for Big Show to get a second lease on life in wrestling doing commentary.

I felt like on the last couple Dynamites, Tony was trying to call things a little more as he's preparing to take the lead on this show and sometimes it was very cute, because he'd call a move in a questioning way and wait for Excalibur to confirm. "That's like a...headlock takeover?"

This is an interesting commentary team because Tony isn't actually calling a lot of moves, but him and Show just kind of generally chat about what is going on in the match and so it still works

It's beautiful to see it improve over time.

I think he was just playing it really safe at the start, making sure to do like, distinct line followed by punchline. After doing some of those pre-taped ones, now he's just going with it

so probably, maybe longer

As this show goes on, I think Paul Wight is remarkably good at this. Has he done commentary anywhere before, did WWE ever put him on the mic for NXT or Main Event or anything?

Been around since 2013, kind of wrestled everywhere, and of course

Kelvington debuted in 2017 on the January 23 episode of Monday Night RAW under a modified spelling of her ring name Rey Lynn, in a squash match lost to Nia Jax in precisely one minute.
