Seems like WWE can't get away from the controversy the last few months with Crown Jewel, the Jordan Myles situation, and now this.

During Takeover: War Games, Corey Graves tweeted this:

"Just for the record guys, I know you wouldn't know it, but there's actually a WWE Hall of Famer AND a former Ring of Honor Champion on commentary.

I'd imagine they have a lot to offer."

Since then, Mauro has deleted his Twitter and missed Survivor Series. He will miss tonight's NXT.

Corey apologized on his podcast:

"I sent out a tweet. It was an unpopular opinion, as I often do with the intention of just stirring up a little controversy, maybe have something fun to talk about on TV or here on the show. It was maybe not the most professional way to go about things and it was not meant to offend, disrespect or disparage anybody, that was never my intention. If it was taken as such, I apologize deeply, that was not my intention. I would never intentionally cause anybody any undue stress, especially a co-worker."

Hopefully Mauro is ok and gets well and back to announcing.
