Now that Cole and King will be in the ring at Mania, who do you think will broadcast the show ?
I am thinking a three man team of JR, Striker and Matthews. It would be cool to see JR come back for one night. I am not sure if his health would permit it.
Booker is an excellent in-ring performer, but he just isn't connecting with me as a commentator. Do you remember when they tried Arn Anderson, but he just didn't mesh well as an announcer ? I feel the same way about Booker.

Booker needs to steal "Fruit Booty" from Stevie Ray.

Given that they still seem to be going with Booker after he did a live show (EC), it wouldn't surprise me to see him call Mania.
Truth be told I'd really like to seem in the booth with just Josh, or with Josh as well as JR and/or Striker. I think he'd be more enjoyable without Cole trying to troll him.

Michael Cole, Booker T., and Josh Matthews until Cole's match with Lawler.
Then maybe Jim Ross will join the broadcast (or Lawler will take over from Cole after the match).

Striker would be wonderful to have calling the action without Cole laughing at him whenever he notices an actual wrestling move and calls it correctly. Sadly, I doubt we'll get that.

I haven't enjoyed Booker T on Smackdown or at the EC ppv, but I'm still hoping he's getting comfortable with it and that he'll find his place.
What I'd like to see, but know we won't, is Josh Matthews, Jim Ross and Kevin Kelly....

Michael Cole, Josh Matthews, Booker T. Jim Ross comes down to call the Cole vs. Lawler match after Lawler wins, and has his moment, he joins Jim Ross at the announce table and Matthews and Booker head to the back for the rest of the show
Miz's title match with Cena will take place during Cole's stint on commentary
and the main event of Del Rio v. Edge will take place while J.R. and King are on commentary. J.R. and King close the show to send everyone home happy.
Wouldn't make sense to have a heel Cole talking a Miz v. Cena match after having his clock cleaned by Lawler.

Booker should be a heel announcer.
Wrestlemania needs one man, and that man is Tony Schiavone

He's got to be marking for Miz during the whole thing. I just hope the show doesn't close with Cena and Rock looking like good friends

I just hope the show doesn't close with Cena and Rock looking like good friends I think the 'Mania match is going to either be the blow-off to Cole's heel character, or transition him into a manager role of some kind (and off commentary). Maybe he'll come out and try to interfere in the Cena-Miz match and get hit with a Rock Bottom.
