Corey Graves took to social media to reveal the WWE Speed tournament, where competitors would engage in rapid-fire matches, each lasting just three minutes.
“Starting April 3rd… WWE Speed, airing exclusively on X, brings a fresh and dynamic new twist to classic in-ring competition… where some of the fastest and toughest Superstars do battle with time itself, because in WWE Speed, our Superstars only have three minutes to defeat their opponent. Three intense, adrenaline-filled minutes, where strategy, agility, and strength collide.”
Describing it as a “sprint to the finish line,” Graves heightened anticipation by announcing that the tournament’s victor would be crowned the inaugural WWE Speed Champion, intensifying the competition’s stakes.
Responding to the announcement, Nathan Frazer took to Twitter, confidently asserting his intention to capture the championship:
“WWE Speed Champion Nathan Frazer… Sounds about right. #NEVERSLOWDOWN.”
In a recent interview with Sportskeeda’s Bill Apter, Corey Graves hinted at his expanded role within WWE’s TV studio and production, albeit unofficially.
“I have kind of unofficially taken on some responsibilities in the television studio, and as far as producing little bits and pieces. I don’t have an official role doing any of that, but I kind of get to lend my expertise. or opinion at least on a lot of different things.”
While the extent of Graves’ additional duties remains unclear, his prominent involvement in the championship announcement suggests a potentially larger role beyond commentary within WWE.
