Corey Graves will not be present at tonight’s WWE NXT TV tapings.

As we reported earlier here on eWn, Graves was seen at Orlando International Airport earlier this afternoon.

On Monday night, Graves took to Twitter to vent his frustrations over his status in WWE. He wrote,

“Imagine chasing your dream. Then being TOLD (not deciding) that you’re no longer physically able to pursue your dream. Then you dedicate your life to something “dream adjacent” and being pretty f**king awesome at it. And then, when it’s time to enjoy the fruits of your labor, being told you’re not famous enough for your own job. Just in case you’ve wondered where I’ve been.”

Sources close to Graves confirm that his frustrations are genuine, and Fightful Select is reporting that he was absent from today’s NXT rehearsals. There are also only two commentary chairs set up in the arena.

While Graves resides in Pittsburgh and missed rehearsals, one higher-up said he could return to RAW or SmackDown by the spring, given the praise he’s received for his work. The source noted that they’d be “surprised” if he wasn’t back.

Finally, many were unaware of Graves’ initial transfer to the WWE NXT brand. Many were surprised to see him at New Year’s Evil on January 7, with one source speculating that his appearance was likely due to him being in town for the event.
