Hell, bring back Paul Wight to do color commentary. Anything but Coach.

About Michael Hayes, while I doubt he would relish not only writing the shows but also doing the colour for them, how much stress would you be in the ring or on the mic doing an interview knowing that the booker was sitting 10 feet away? No thanks, if I'm a worker. So what. They can deal with that. Hell, in the 80's wrestlers had to deal with the smurfing owner 10 feet away calling the match. and now i wish Vince would come to SD instead of coach

I like Coach. Always have. Hes got comedic timing, a good voice, and plays the heel very well. I am actually glad they didn't give it to Michael Hayes. I love that man, I really do. I worshipped him as a child, and I dribble a bit of man bleach out of my bell end every time I hear Badstreet USA. But his time at the table has always been sub par to me. He just doesn't fit in the color commentator role IMO. And, Not for Nothin, but only one guy should ever be seated next to Cole on SD! anyway.

Coach on any other WWE program puts himself over first and ignores the match, as his RAW "broadcasting" showed. It's not his fault, it's what the pipe into his ear, but there's no way they let him be anything more than "obnoxious Coach" on SD.

Ron Simmons should be colour commentator. think about it "So Ron, Paul London really looks like a fruit. Speaking of fruit, what's your favorite fruit concoction?" "JAM!" "Hey Ron, this match between Snitsky and Lance Cade is a real turkey. Speaking of turkey, what do you like to eat at Christmas?" "HAM!" "Hey Ron, the Boogeyman really reminds me of a rapping geenie. Who's your favorite rapping geenie?" "KAZZAM!"

Haha. People complain and say they won't watch a wrestling show because they don't like the announcer! Only two words can counter this... Don smurfing West. -metylerca Uhm....that's three words, my friend.

Coach sounded alright to me last night, my only gripe was that he was trying to do play-by-play a little too much.

I remember Elijah Burke doing commentary for ECW one time when Tazz couldnt make it. Not like they're doing much with him now so he can do double duty.
SD! isnt even his show anyways.

I was hoping Coach would come in and be a full heel, always trying to get Vickie and Edge and the other heels over.
Boy, I should have known better. Coach is bland as all hell. He made me wish Shane-O-Mac would come back and do color. And I used to hate Shane on color.

Honestly, he wasn't horrible. He didn't actually play the "heel" commentator like I expected though. He just did the read with Lovehead Cole, Cole turned smart ass on him a few times and he didn't retaliate, but I didn't convulse like I thought I might.

He did not piss me off this week like he did when he was on the Raw call team a few years ago. But can that last?
I mean Coach was worse then Bret Ernst from WSX back when he was in the booth.

Well, they're not as bad as I though they'd be (they're still better than Tenay/West). But Coach was really bland and since he wasn't putting down Cole like JBL did, it meant Cole was more Cole-like.

My two least favorite commentators together? Now I'm never going to watch Smackdown.

Cole should NOT be the dominant speaker at the announcer table.
Although, I did enjoy this back-and-forth
Cole: They call themselves the Redneck and the Reject, and here's the Reject now! Coach:...Why do they call themselves that? Cole: They call themselves the Redneck and the Reject. Coach: That doesn't answer my question. Cole: What did you ask?
My eyes rolled for a few minutes on that one. Especially when Cole explained that Shannon Moore was the Reject because..." Just look at him."

Coach should have responded by singing Rob Conway's theme song.
