Corey Graves says, in spite of the advertising, his new podcast is not about being edgy, its about honesty.
WWE put up a video on YouTube announcing who Graves would have on the inaugural episode of the WWE branded podcast, After The Bell.
Names included Ric Flair, Bayley, and Seth Rollins in addition to the already announced Triple H.
The WWE Now video, which you can see above, promises an "edgy and unpredictable show."
In a new video released on Twitter, Graves takes exception to this branding. He even calls out the use of a teleprompter and the use of the word "edgy." Graves says the show is about honesty and promises to asks questions fans wanna know answers to. he even teases asking Seth about "KO."

"I appreciate the love. And no offense, but McKenzie and your teleprompter. That ain't it, okay? This isn't about being edgy. This is about being honest," Graves began. "I don't know what to expect, but I can guarantee you what it won't be. Maybe I'm to talk about Cesaro and how he should be in the main event of everything. Maybe we'll talk about Lana and Lashington Steele on Monday Night Raw. I got Triple H on the show. I'm gonna get the answers that you journalists can't get on your quarterly conference call. Maybe I'll talk to Seth Rollins about being not cool. Alright? Maybe I'll ask him about KO, and I don't mean Kevin Owens. I got Bayley. I got Nature Boy, Ric Flair. Wherever you get your podcast, go subscribe to WWE After The Bell right now. We're going to change from within. And if I'm going out, I'm going out on my sword."
The first episode drops this upcoming Wednesday, October 30.
