This week’s Raw was full of surprises. It was a packed show with a lot of explosive moments. The show was a joyful rollercoaster for the fans, and even Pat McAfee, who sitting on the commentary desk, could not hold his feelings. During the commentary, McAfee was close to breaking a major WWE rule after Jimmy Uso cost Jey Uso the Intercontinental Championship.

The main event in Raw was a hard-hitting war between Gunther and Jey Uso. During the closing sequence, it felt like Main Event Jey was about to win the Intercontinental Championship. However, Jimmy Uso unexpectedly interrupted the match. During this moment, McAfee lost his cool and snarled at the Bloodline member. He went on to cuss Jimmy with some words that are not supposed to be used on WWE programming due to it being PG-rated.

Pat McAfee was about to use those banned words. However, it was covered by the voice of Michael Cole expeditiously. McAfee believes in being free while providing commentary, and it can be seen in his work. Besides, Jey was close to dethroning the Ring General. Therefore, it was all in the heat of the moment that Pat used the cuss words on the programming, as he is a professional on the table.

However, as of now, it looks like there will nott be any trouble for the former NFL player. Besides, he has been a color commentator for Raw for quite some time now. It is going to be interesting to see his commentary on the road to WrestleMania, as it will be full of surprises from here on out. Besides, Jimmy Uso has declared a war against Jey Uso, which will surely explode in the upcoming weeks.

On the Busted Open Podcast, WWE Hall of Famer stated that to him, McAfee commentary feels forced. He supported his statement by saying that the former NFL star throws much forced knowledge into his work, which seems irrelevant to the product. Therefore, Pat needs to differentiate on the stuff related to WWE only.

I don’t know about Pat lately. You know, people were b******g about Tony Romo on the last play of the Super Bowl, talking over, who was it? Jim Nantz? Talking over him. It’s almost like I feel [that] lately McAfee is throwing stuff in there where it doesn’t belong. He’s forcing stuff, and I never felt that way about Pat before.

His responses to WWE action have been hilarious for many fans. It is going to be interesting to see how much McAfee will be improving in the near future in WWE behind the commentary desk.
