Well, that's no surprise to me. Michael Cole bites the big one. Moving him to Raw was a huge mistake...frankly, he shouldn't even be doing interviews. It should be Striker and Lawler.

JR is the play-by-play announcer on SD, and while Striker is supposed to the color commentator on ECW, they're still having him hold Josh's hand until he gets more experienced. God, I wish we could have Joey Styles back. He could announce ECW all by himself (he already did in the old ECW), and then they could move Striker to SM and pair him with Todd, while moving JR back over to RAW and having a 3 man team like they used to have. I belive joey styles is still in the hospital for the verbal beat down cornette gave to him.My god it was like Apollo creed vs Corky. I don't recall Cornette's promo on Styles. Link , please |

Cole has heat with Vince? He'll win the ECW Championship within the week.  |

Cole is the best commentator in WWE today, so this makes no sense to me really. Cole's right up there with Mike Tenay in the "talking for no reason" department. |

I don't recall Cornette's promo on Styles. Link , please Edit: Folks I'm not entirely certain if the Cornette video violates the politics rule given the tangential relationship to wrestling so I'll take it off. If you do want to find it on youtube, just look up "Styles" and "Cornette" and you'll find several instances of it being posted. |

Why can't these guys just take off their headsets in protest?

Why can't these guys just take off their headsets in protest? Cole: For myself, for... for Jerry Lawler... I don't know. And Vince McMahon you can go to hell. Straight to hell. We're outta here. *Cole throws off headset* |

Can I get a transcript of what Cornette said? Is it on a website?
I wanna hear it. Joey pretty much let me down.

Wow, that Cornette video is so great. What were we talking about again?
Oh yeah, Michael Cole. I agree that Cole is the best announcer in WWE. At least he has memorable phrases like "vintage so and so". Cheesy as he is at least he has some signature calls. You could say the same about McMahon in the old days with his "whatumanuver" and "he got him...no he didn't". It was kinda dumb stuff, but at least it was distinctive and memorable. In ten years are any of us gonna remember stuff that Josh Matthews, Todd Grisham, or even Matt Striker used to say?

To be fair, good 'ol JR has the following:
Good GAWD!!!
Send him to hell! Send him to hell!!
and
____ has done it (again)! ____ is now World Champion (once again)!

Why doesn't Vince McMahon just come back and do commentary himself, if noone else can live up to his standards?
Wow... I never knew Cornette was a left-wing nut.

If Vince is so anal about the announcing, then why not the return of Vince McMahon: ANNOUNCER? "What a maneuver!" "Cover That Man!" I thought Michael Cole had heat with all of us? |

It would be so funny if Cole snapped and uppercutted Vince through the Shockmaster wall.
And, in terms of contribution to rasslin' alone (not counting politics), Cornette>>>>>>>Styles

I always enjoy hearing about Cole being verbally abused. I know it's wrong but I hate him so much. He just sounds so fake. Like he's trying too much.
He annoys me to no end. Even in the videogames. The only person I dislike more is the Macho Man as announcer.
