SmackDown LIVE has a new addition to its announce team: Tom Phillips. The announcer joins play-by-play commentators Mauro Ranallo and David Otunga, and color commentator JBL, giving Team Blue a four-man booth every Tuesday night at 8/7 C on USA Network.

Phillips made his WWE debut in 2012 on NXT, where he announced NXT ArRIVAL, WWE Network’s first live, in-ring broadcast.

Fear not, NXT Universe, in addition to joining SmackDown LIVE, Phillips will still call the action on WWE NXT every week.

4 announcers. 4. Let that sink in.

Joey Styles must be laughing.

However, if this is a precursor to drop JBL and/or (especially) David Otunga, I'm all for it. Ranello & Phillips showed they were a class above JBL & Otunga in this maiden voyage out for Phillips.
