Cathy Kelley Reveals She Was Offered a WWE Commentary Role

Cathy Kelley returned to WWE after a two-year absence and recently discussed her return on Kristian Harloff’s The Big Thing. Kelley revealed that Stephanie McMahon offered her to do training for commentary:

“She also offered me training to do commentary, which I love that she believes in me for that. One of my goals was to always be on either Raw or SmackDown as a backstage interviewer. When that offer came through, that was something I was really excited about.

She continued, “They had mentioned things in the past of me going back, and I think I was finally ready to do it, so it was the right time, and I definitely jumped at the opportunity. Michael Cole was joking, ‘Why am I the last one to know?’ He gave the offer, and I’m like, ‘I’m in.’”
