Former WWE Star Issues Statement Following Release From The Company

WWE has made several changes to the commentary teams over the last few years and recently the company switched things up again when Kevin Patrick was pulled from the SmackDown team. Following Patrick’s removal it was revealed that Michael Cole & Pat McAfee would be the new commentary team for Raw with Corey Graves & Wade Barrett calling the action on SmackDown.

It was later reported that Kevin Patrick had been released from the company, but now it seems that the former WWE star has landed a new gig. Today Kevin announced that he will be working as the lead host of MLS 360 on Apple TV this year. He also addressed his WWE release when he posted the following on social media:

“Beyond excited to announce that this year I will be Lead Host of MLS 360 on Apple TV. Four hours of live whip-around coverage, jumping from game to game, catching all the goals and big moments as they happen – all alongside three top pros and brilliant people!

The rise of our beautiful game here in North America is undeniable. Messi plays here. We’ve got a World Cup on our shores in 2 years. The match attendances & atmospheres are better than ever. And now we’re broadcasting to over 100 countries on Apple TV. Let’s be havin’ ya!

Nothing but love for 3 incredible years at WWE! From the exhilarating experiences & all the brilliant friends I worked with along the way, I’m flooded with gratitude. In saying that, it was time to turn the page, and I couldn’t be more excited for this new chapter! Cheers ♥️”
