Trust me, it’s not lost on me that while I’m away, it takes one of the GOATs to hold it down on my behalf. I’m grateful. Thank you, @JerryLawler for avoiding the iceberg!

Corey Graves does not want to face Edge and Beth Phoenix

Recently Corey Graves cleared the idea of why he didn’t make his in-ring return against Edge and Beth Phoenix at Royal Rumble, and instead of that, The Miz and Maryse did that bout.

He recently did an interview with Wrestling Inc. Graves commented on getting back in the squared circle along with his wife, Carmella. Graves mentioned that he didn’t want to face Edge and Beth Phoenix.

“But then again, you have to deal with Edge & Beth Phoenix, I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be Glam Slammed on my face. Big fan of both of them. I love to watch them from afar. Miz & Maryse might be a little bit more attainable. I’d never say never,” said Graves.

The commentator was cleared to return to the ting after concussion issues forced him to retire in December 2014.
