Wade Barrett made a trip to Tuesday night this week, joining Vic Joseph on commentary for WWE NXT in place of Booker T. Tuesday night’s show saw Barrett step in for Booker to serve as color commentator alongside Joseph, with Booker T on vacation.
This is the second week in a row that the WWE Hall of Famer was not on NXT, as he was absent from last week’s show. Corey Graves filled in for Booker on last week’s show.
Barrett was previously part of the NXT broadcast crew, serving on commentary from 2020 to 2022. He is now part of the Smackdown brand.
Booker T has been a member of the NXT commentary team since October of 2022 and has made occasional appearances on main roster commentary to fill in for others.
