Former Tough Enough Star Campaigns To Join Raw Commentary Team

Former WWE Tough Enough contestant AJ Kirsch has shot his shot, publicly campaigning to join the Raw commentary team.

This comes just hours after WWE announced the release of Raw commentator Adnan Virk. Kirsch tweeted his broadcaster reel at WWE and later Triple H and Michael Cole as well.

He also added that he respectfully suggests the company hires someone who knows how to call professional wrestling. Considering Virk’s limited experience calling pro wrestling, this would appear to be a (respectful) shot at the company. Kirsch said:

With @adnansvirk and @WWE parting ways, there appears to be an opportunity to join the commentary team.

Once again, I’m just going to leave this here and respectfully suggest they hire someone who knows how to call professional wrestling.https://t.co/VWeIMKmq5g

AJ Kirsch competed on the 2011 season of WWE Tough Enough where he finished in fourth place. He has worked with WWE since then, providing the voice for the main story of WWE 2K19.

WWE has not currently announced what the Raw commentary team will be next week.
