Corey Graves led Steeler Nation in the traditional Terrible Towel Twirl at this past Sunday’s NFL matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the San Francisco 49ers.
Now, Graves has revealed that he will be the voice of the in-game intros for every Steelers home game this season. The veteran WWE commentator shared this news on the latest edition of his After The Bell podcast.
The Steelers kick off their home games with the Terrible Towel Twirl. When you’re in Acrisure Stadium, you got 60,000-plus all waving their towels above their head. I had the honor and privilege of being able to lead that this week to really kick off the season but more than that, I think more exciting personally was the reason I was on the field to begin with was I have the dubious distinction of being the narrator, the voice of this year’s in-game intros for the Pittsburgh Steelers so for every home game this season when the clock hits zero, the first voice you hear is mine. Give a big, ‘Here we go’ and the video packages and it’s honestly, I wanna say it’s a dream come true but it’s actually more so, growing up, being born and raised in Pittsburgh, lifelong Steelers fan, it’s so cool with WWE and the NFL have been working together. Obviously, we got the new championship legacy titles. That relationship has been really cool so to be able to experience that on my home turf, literally, in the city that I love and live in and feel so strongly about was absolutely incredible.
Unfortunately for Graves and the rest of Steeler Nation, the Niners would murder the Steelers 30-7.
