Been watching a lot of 03-04 Smackdown recently and they are such a fun duo! They play off each other super well, they’re letting their personalities shine while still keeping the viewer informed, and Cole honestly does an awesome job expressing genuine outrage at dastardly actions. I grew up listening to these two but never appreciated how good they were.

I loved them together. Taz is probably my all time favorite announcer. Until Mcafee came along Cole never had a better partner than Taz.

Initial run with JBL - 06-08 was fun too

Cole was damn good at getting fans into the gravity of the storyline. It was really around when he became the Raw announcer that Vince apparently got deeper into his headset and he became an ad and catchphrase robot.

Thanks to Paul Heyman. He’d have them redoing commentary over & over until they got it right. They were very bitter about that but he was right it was the best either of them had ever been on commentary up until that point.

It’s a shame Cole never took Tazz up on his training offer. He could have been cruiserweight champ in like a year!

I forever associate this team with their atrociously dubbed commentary on Smackdown: Just Bring It on PS2
"THE UNDERTAKER!!!......was great the other day"
"BUBBA RAY DUDLEY....is the best.....World Wrestling Federation Tag Team...CHAMPION...we've ever had"
"The Rock has a very good THE ROCK BOTTOM!!"
"Here.....KITTY KITTY!" "Taz don't say that!"

Say what you will about Smackdown Tazz, but he always sounded motivated
Special props for the two Rumbles he called with Jim Ross as the commentary team chimera where Tazz marked out whenever JR said one of his catchphrases

"Look at Dawn!"
"Look at Al!"
They were quite good together.

Cole and Taz were great together. Tons of natural chemistry between the two.
And man, Taz is just great in general. Easily my favorite wrestler turned commentator along with Bobby Heenan (unfortunately didn't get into wrestling until Gorilla Monsoon was already done).

Well... here comes the pain. Literally the only reason I'd ever want to see Lesnar in AEW is to hear Taz say this one more time. |
