Todd Grishiam (Sp?) was one of the co-anchors. Is he still with the WWE? (Didn't know where to go with this)

Nope. He has received (or he gave the WWE...not sure how those deals went down) the Coachman treatment. He is 100% employed by ESPN now.

Oh, ok. I haven't been watching the WWE superclose so I didn't even notice he wasn't there. How long has he been gone? I guess he had no confident in Triple H's job as the COO.  |

He's been gone about a month and a half from WWE. His last WWE appearance was NXT in August.

This is the first day I've heard that he was officially on the air. I knew he was headed to ESPN as a sportscaster, and I've had a few buds on Twitter spreading the word this morning. Today might be his first day on-air.
Now if they can just get Scott Stanford...of course he might be on lockdown with the NY sportscaster job he has already.
Now I wonder when Vince will be on next and we can get another awkward interview, like when Vince was on for the Denver Nuggets thing and Coachman interviewed him. You could tell Coach had that "glad I got the hell away from you" look.
Of course then there was the fact Vince called it "World Wrestling Federation" and it was quite awhile after the name change.
(since this isn't WWE-owned footage I assume this is clean, if not then I apologize).

Good for him. He might not be a great announcer but he should be a solid anchor on Sportscenter.

To be honest, I forgot about Todd Grishiam.

I made note of this on the WWE board as well. It was bizarre seeing him on ESPN, just like it was weird seeing Coach the first time.
