According to a report on thewrestleblog.com, new WWE Smackdown ring announcer Lauren Mayhew was apparently pulled from her ring announcing duties after the first dark match at the Smackdown/ECW
tapings in Boston. The word is that she was missing her cues, perhaps due to confusion and/or nervousness. After the first match ended, she was replaced by ECW announcer Josh Mathews for the rest of the taping.
"She was sort of scolded at ringside by Josh Mathews and WWE staff and then went backstage only to return some time later and sit at ringside the entire night," said thewrestleblog.com's Mike McMahon. "Mathews announced everything - including Smackdown - and Mayhew took notes all night long."

So they just threw her out there to do a TV taping without ever trying her out?

Or maybe she was only supposed to do the dark match then? Since Justin Roberts always does Smackdown...

They should just fire her cause she's obviously a talentless bimbo .

Wouldn't really have made sense for her to start on the anniversary show anyway, so good that they're holding off for another week.

I call newz on this. Maybe she did the dark match as planned and wasn't even supposed to do the rest of the show. Of course they want her ring side to see how things work at a tv event.

"Why would they debut her on their anniversary show?" is the question that sinks this BS. That, and the fact they said Josh was the current ECW announcer. Great journalism! |

What was that dark match, BTW? I don't think I've seen it in any reports I've found so far. Justin's doing every show now? Where's Chimmel, bring back The Fink for crying out loud I read in one of the sources (forgot which one) that WWE says Fink is too old or something about his age. But you'd think they'd have Fink do an anniversary show. Or at least have Chimmel do this one, as he was SD's first announcer. |
