Sucks to hear that JR's health issues are coming up again, hopefully this won't be anything recurring for him. Does anyone who gets Derby City or OVW know if Baltimore is any good? Hopefully he can at least surpass the low standard that the Coachman, Grisham, etc. types set.

Yea the WWE and hell when you think about it are very slim when it comes to finding a good anouncers. You have Cole who it seems all the time calls the wrong move or is saying stuff that makes him sound stupid like saying when Batista shoulder blocking people of the top "That he never saw that before."
TNA I can hardly stand to listen to it because of them anoyying and non stop talking. We don't need to be told what is going on in a promo. Other wise why are the wrestlers even doing them? Let the freaking Wrestlers tell the story.
Like I said though it a slim pool when it comes to good anouncers. I would say replace them but with who? Outside of Scott Hudson who is decent at it. Who else.
I feel bad for JR for having these problems. He is the best you can get right now as anouncers even if he lossing it at times. Him and Styles are the only two anouncers who can get me really pump up for a match.

I hope Ross gets well soon. While he may miss a call or two nowadays, he's still one of the greatest announcers ever.
And they picked up a good one getting Timmy Baltimore. He's an awesome announcer. Hopefully he'll be groomed to replace Michael Cole.

Yes he annouced there as Timmy Minneapolis No no, you're probably talking about Tom Arkansas. Out of Mississippi . He was killed in the ring in Houston. By Tex Colorado. You know, the Arizona Assassin.

Timmy is great. I think WWE is missing the boat by not putting Josh Matthews on the air. He's probably my favorite announcer since his Velocity stint a few years ago. Baltimore is good though, he was at the hall of fame sitting beside Sean Spears and Cody Runnels.

I concur with the point that Timmy Baltimore is very good. Plus he has a good show-business name.

I just want Hill up on SD so he can refer to Vladmir Kozlov and Vladmir Coleslaw I wonder how soon before WWE will make mention of his disability and uses it in an angle

Get well soon JR. It will be interesting to hear a new voice on raw though, hopefully this guy won't be another mike amadle though, although part of me is hoping he is just for the comedy value I wish they would give Josh Matthews a chance though, I've always enjoyed him on velocity/heat.
