Jonathan Coachman isn't the only established pro wrestling announcer that WWE signed this week.

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com, longtime Impact Wrestling broadcast team member Jeremy Borash has signed a deal to join WWE.

Borash recently did the voiceovers for the Impact Wrestling television tapings and represented the company at the House Of Hardcore 37 event this past Friday in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was also backstage at the WWE live events over the weekend.

Johnson is reporting that Borash gave his notice to Impact Wrestling and will soon be starting his job with WWE.

As noted, longtime Impact Wrestling broadcast team member Jeremy Borash is rumored to be WWE-bound.

Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com first reported the news today that Borash gave his notice to Impact Wrestling after working their most recent set of television tapings, and representing the company at the House Of Hardcore 37 event in Philadelphia over the weekend.

It was also noted that Borash was backstage at the WWE live events over the weekend, and that he has officially inked a deal to join the company.

According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, Borash is expected to join WWE as an announcer for the NXT brand.

As announced by WWE on Monday, the company also re-signed former broadcast team member and ESPN analyst Jonathan Coachman to return as part of the RAW announce team.

Not too sure on it, but I'm thinking of the positives. Clearly confident on the mic and he knows what he's talking about more than a commentator from somewhere else... like Adamle... or a backstage guy like Cole, who still manages to astound me at times with his lack of knowledge, considering how long he's now been a commentator.

This is a weird one but cool, good for him. He can't be much worse than the likes of Byron Saxton.

I always though he was pretty good when he was announcing, though when I was watching TNA, it was Mike Teney and Taz doing most of the announcing so Jeremy ended up mostly doing ring announcer and backstage stuff. Still, I think he proved himself pretty knowledgeable, and being able to sit next to the 'proff' for a while must've been quite the education!

Booker T has been removed from commentary for Coachman. I hope Coachman has improved. Seems pointless replacing Booker with Coachman if he's not going to be better. Granted, I'm not a fan of Bookers commentary by any means, so it's probably a good move.

Borash I think will do well. I'm not a fan of WWE's commentary style anyway. Not sure why they need 3 now. Still not sure why Cole is like the leading commentator. Half the time they distract from the action which isn't good. So I'm hopeful that Borash will make things a little bit better.

Borash will probably just do NXT interviews, don't expect him on the commentary desk any time soon.
