Back in December, WWE announced former NXT Superstar Corey Graves was forced into retirement due to multiple concussions suffered while in the ring. In the process, he was offered an announcing contract with the company, and has been working in NXT and on the WWE pre-show panels since.
Now, Graves is stirring the pot with a tongue-in-cheek campaign to get a cult-favorite back on the airwaves. Graves tweeted the following Thursday:
I’m making it my personal mission to bring back #TuesdayNightTitans in 2015. @WWENetwork @wwe @VinceMcMahon
— Corey Graves (@WWEGraves) January 29, 2015
Many will recall, “Tuesday Night Titans” was a spoof late night show originally hosted by Vince McMahon, where he interviewed Superstars in-character. Eventually, Gene Okerlund took over. The late-Lord Alfred Hayes starred as the sidekick for the program.
Though the show only ran from 1984 through 1986, the show is currently available on the WWE Network. With the Network being free for the month of February for new subscribers, perhaps some new fans will get on Graves’ bandwagon to make it happen.
