Update on Jerry Lawler and his commentary status with WWE following the draft on Tuesday night

WWE.com has updated the article from late Tuesday night announcing that WWE Hall of Famers Jerry “The King” Lawler and Booker T will both be part of WWE Network pre-show and kickoff shows going forward.

Lawler was originally part of the Smackdown commentary team and was quietly removed in favor of the team that will now include Mauro Ranallo, JBL and David Otunga.

As reported earlier, the new RAW commentary team will now consist of Michael Cole, Corey Graves and Byron Saxton starting next week.
