The WWE has been witness to several excellent play-by-play as well as colour commentators who’ve provided the high-octane matchups with that ‘big fight‘ feel.

From Jim Ross to Corey Graves—varying personas, distinct styles—truly phenomenal just like the WWE Universe likes it.

Nevertheless, WWE has often featured a select few unlikely members in the announce team over the years. Now, although some of them may have been better off staying away from commentary duties, others proved to exceed expectations.

Today, Sportskeeda brings fans a few WWE Superstars who you may not know were part of the announce team…Spoiler alert! A few surprises lie ahead—


#5 Shawn Michaels

Don’t be surprised, kids.

Perhaps the younger generation of fans may be unbeknownst to the fact that Mr. Wrestlemania himself has donned the microphone and headset, during his athletic prime nonetheless.

Shawn Michaels served as a part of the announce team on RAW alongside Vince McMahon and on occasion with Gorilla Monsoon, several times during the 1990s, with the most prominent of them coming being from December of 1994-February of 1995.

Furthermore, on 13 July 1998 with Jim Ross, and on the July 20th and August 24th editions of RAW with Ross and Jerry Lawler the very same year, Michaels helmed the headset with pride, providing fans with the perspective of a true blue-blooded performer in his prime. It's safe to say, his work on the announce team was an absolute success.
