AEW Continuing With Ex-WWE Announcer After Surprise Debut
After a surprise appearance in AEW, it seems a former WWE talent will be working more closely with Tony Khan’s company.
Former WWE ring announcer Jojo Offerman originally rose to prominence on WWE reality show Total Divas, featuring alongside the likes of the Bella Twins, Naomi and Natalya as the curtain was pulled back on the lives of the company’s female superstars.
Offerman enjoyed a brief in-ring career before transitioning to the role of ring announcer in NXT. Promotion to the main roster followed with the Los Angeles-born star becoming a regular face on Raw, SmackDown and premium live events whilst also occasionally serving as a backstage interviewer.
The popular star drifted away from WWE television in 2018 after falling pregnant with the first of two children shared with former WWE Champion, the late Bray Wyatt. JoJo was quietly released by the company in 2021 and Bray Wyatt tragically passed away in 2023 aged just 36. It looked like Offerman might be done with the wrestling business but that recently changed.
Jojo Offerman Expected Back In AEW
Offerman had not been linked with a return to wrestling so it came as a surprise to fans when she served as the ring announcer for a dark match at the AEW Collision taping in Charlotte, North Carolina on January 4 2025.
Fightful Select has reported that people believe that JoJo is expected to do more work with the company moving forward. There were no specifics noted such as a time frame or role.
Justin Roberts and Arkady Aura are the current AEW ring announcers with long-time ROH ring announcer Bobby Cruise also appearing occasionally in the company.
