It appears as though JBL is returning as a full time wrestler. There has been talk for several weeks of JBL giving up his announcing spot on smackdown. Kevin Dunn has been auditioning people with Michael Cole to help find him a new announcing partner.

JBL- great announcer/crap wrestler.

No. Now I'll forget that Guerrero means Warrior, and that Vickie Guerrero was born into a wrestling family (ewwwww!!!!!)
Anyway, I do love JBL on commentary, but he's such a ridiculously good heel, and what he lacks in the ring, he makes up for that, so I'm really excited about the possibility of him coming back.

I would assume JBLs style makes him need to be a tad less fat while BDVs is a fat mans style But then again it's not like JBL was ever that muscular |

Meh. I really like JBL the announcer. And to be honest, I don't want to see the rumored Jericho vs. JBL at WrestleMania. It seems too one-sided in my opinion, and if JBL was to come back, it should be against a new talent.

I loathed JBL as a wrester and I like him as an announcer, so I'm not too thrilled.
I'm more curious as to who they'll get to replace him.

I'm actually looking forward to this if it's true. I actually rather like JBL in the ring...and I'm a big fan of the fact that he's one of the few guys in the US who uses a lariat as a finisher...I've always loved lariat finishers, especially his...it looks brutal. It's no Axe Bomber, but it still looks really painful.

He's too fat to wrestle I call bullcrap I read in the Observer last month I think that he had been dropping a ton of weight. I assume he still has a ways to go though. Of course it's not like he was exactly in tip top shape when he was an active wrestler either. |

Awesome. I miss seeing JBL wrestle. As for who replaces him on commentary, it'll be Tazz, part of the ECW/Smackdown! talent exchange  . |
