You got to figure his heel character is getting over is the bring Stone Cold back to use in that angle.
My prediction is that the Cole/Lawler match will take place in between the two championship matches.

He is fantastic as a heel. His promos are the best in the WWE, and he is insanely hateable. They need to havehim manage Swagger for a while to build Swagger up, and then eventually pull the trigger on a Swagger face turn by having him powerbomb Cole after a slow build. This could essentially be Batista's face turn all over again.

I'm pretty sure that most people think he's a great heel but shouldn't be on commentary with that heel character. That's how I feel at least. So I'm not entirely sure how to vote. The gimmick is fine, but him being on commentary is terrible.

His antics on Monday and a couple Mondays ago where Lawler initially challenged him to a match gave me some serious Andy Kaufman vibes. He's a great heel. And even though popular opinion has now swayed from "I hate Michael Cole in everything he does" to "Michael Cole is a good heel but heels shouldn't be play-by-play guys", I feel that the change in behavior has only made me look forward to his participation in commentary. There's a lot of resistance from people to actually want to acknowledge that Michael Cole is doing strong work all around, but I think he's breaking new ground in wrestling commentary.

A great heel to the point where seeing him get his comeuppance (like with Austin and the like on Monday) becomes engaging television.
But having to hear him on play-by-play on both Raw and SmackDown and go all schizo on everyone...........not so much.

Michael Cole as a straight up heel is fun stuff.
Michael Cole as a pseudo play by play guy who is trying to juggle being a straight up heel at the same time makes me want to shoot my tv.

He's wayyy too much as a play-by-play guy. I agree with everyone. Good Heel Character, but he needs to be used differently. His shrieking during matches really bothers me, and in my opinion is the worst thing currently on WWE TV.
I also do not agree with them cutting to Cole during wrestler's entrances to show him clapping and standing on a table cheering for them. Just a pet-peeve of mine. It just seems very out of place.

Cole is a great heel and is gonna do wonders for Swagger. He just needs to tone it down on commentary at times where he gets too annoying and too distracting from what's going on (Like when he wouldn't shut up about R-Truth getting the city wrong when he should really have been putting over Mason Ryan as a monster)

I think he'd work better as a manager/Mr. McMahon-like authority figure than as a regular commentator, but his persona itself is great; probably the most entertaining thing Cole's ever done in WWE.

They need to get Cole off the commentary table reveal him as GM already. He's too over to be sitting on a headset for 2 hours.
