Cole by far. The lead position on the big show, and he just SUCKS at it. Its so bad, it makes Lawler stoop to his level.

Lawler. I would say J.R but he was actually good at one point. Lawler only worked when he had someone like that to play off of but on his own he's boring. I don't complain about Cole because I can tune him out pretty easily.

Cole easily. When Lawler has a good product to call or a decent guy to play off of, he's alright if not good. Cole just sucks.

I never thought I would say Lawler is a worse commentator than Cole. But, today I state it.
As a heel, Jerry is a perfect commentator. He plays it up perfectly, and I loved his excuses for heels when they cheated.
As a face, Jerry is a terrible commentator. Everything feels forced and watered down.
At least with Cole, he's been playing the face commentator his whole career. Sure, he's not good at it. But, he's a bit more comfortable in the role than Lawler.

= JR was much better with Heyman. This guy knows what he's talking about. Anyhoo, I say Lawler. Hated him as a Heel when I was a young man, hate him as a Face as a adult. |

To me it's still Michael Cole
Runner-up: Jerry Lawler and it's the same reason YellowJacket said

Lawler is suffering from Schiavone-syndrome. He's a once great announcer who enthusiastically supports an awful product. Instead of telling a story, he's merely shilling. And while Schiavone was simply a straight man, Lawler does it in the style of a hyperactive 8 year old in need of Ritalin.

I used to love Lawler but I haven't enjoyed him in any capacity since 2002. I never thought Cole was as bad as people made him out to be. He was serviceable alongside Taz and JBL but being paired with Lawler has really brought him down. At least Cole is enjoyably bad now, Lawler has been a chore to hear for 7 years. |

It's still Cole. I rank them personally: 1) JR 2) Striker 3) Grish 4) Matthews This. but I don't really mind Cole or Lawler.Still somebody is the worst and I think it's Cole, but really he's just average. I like his work better than the TNA crew or the old WCW announce teams. |

Cole's forced laughter is worse then Jerry Lawler's, so I went with Cole.

Present day Lawler is annoying with anyone, even Jim Ross. Cole can be alright with the right partner...

I mark for Cole and Striker but I don't like Todd Grisham it's just something about his voice.

Cole. I wish no ill of the man, but he's worse than Pettengill. . . Who was FAR worse than Mooney. I really miss Sean Mooney.  |

Grish. Lawler is obnoxious, but at least was decent at one point. JR hasn't been the same since that second bout with Bell's Palsy, but is still one of the best ever. Cole is a shill and is like Schiavone, only about 100 times worse. Like Schiavone, however, Cole at least has an identity and personality. He also bothers to learn the wrestler's names, the names of their moves and keep up with their storyline motivations. He at least stays on the subject of the match, like with Carlito and Primo on Monday rather than say, yammering about Cena or HHH. I can appreciate that. Grisham doesn't know much about the product, the performers or wrestling in general and it shows. He's also frighteningly generic. Any option on this poll is still miles ahead of Adamle though.
