WWE broadcaster Vic Joseph appeared visibly shaken after an apparent intruder grabbed at his arm in the middle of a live show. The 38-year-old commentator, who calls the action every week on NXT alongside WWE Hall of Famer Booker T , was in the middle of a link on air when someone off screen suddenly launched at him . In chaotic scenes, the cameraman was seen moving out of the way as Vic recoiled from the ‘attack’, with Booker quickly turning to glare at the mysterious man, who wasn’t named on screen.
Booker shouted: ‘What the hell is going on? Where the hell is security?!’ Vic remained professional, as he replied: ‘Don’t pay attention to it. Security just handled it.’ Fans were taken aback by the dramatic events, which weren’t addressed further on air, leaving viewers to speculate about what was actually going on as security dragged the person away.

Does anybody know if this guy is a wrestler in @NXT #NXT?’ A third viewer, @Jcupps8724John, wrote: ‘Did anyone see what happened on NXT? I saw someone grab Vic Joseph arm and I don’t know what happened? Did a fan get past security.
