I tell ya, and its no secret....but Michael Cole just sucks as an announcer. I was painfully reminded again when involving the Hardyz tag match, the topic comes up about the Money in the Bank match from back in WM.
JBL criticizes Jeff Hardy for being more interested in being a human highlight machine,(which JBL did say back at that match, when Jeff jumped 15 feet onto Edge) please the crowds, and then Cole disagrees, saying that Jeff was doing what it took to win the match.
WHA?
How does doing a major spot help you win the match Michael?
Really, I've been agreeing with folks who are digging JBL as an announcer, but sadly....Michael Cole will still be around, and probably take over RAW when JR finally decides to go home and scream MAH GAWD all night long.
No wonder me and my friends still call him "Mitchell" Cole(thank you Jericho!)

I think when an announcer says something stupid like that it's more the people in the back than the actual announcer. That's probably why the TNA commentary is so bad.

Debating whatever Cole or TNA commentary is better is like asking, "Would I rather get AIDS or cancer?"

Don West is on about Cole's level now that I think about it

I like Michael Cole. He and JBL have good banter, and at least Cole is quick to respond, unlike the apparent "5 second delay" guys over on RAW. They seem sooooo ooooold.

I actually rather like Cole. I think he and JBL have great chemistry.

Don't judge Michael Cole too harshly, we can't expect much from a guy who's been raped by Heidenreich.

He gives away the results of a lot of matches DURING the match just by some of the stuff he comes out with.

Am I seriously the ONLY person who actually likes the guy.Ok,he may say some silly stuff sometimes,but at the end of the day,he is only trying to do his job to the best of his ability;and whilst I dont think he is on the same level as JR (still the best IMO),Cole seems to be the sort of announcer that at least prepares before going on air (like JR),getting some facts and data etc ready,and I genuinely think he is trying to improve his craft slowly but surely.He also seems to genuinely really enjoy his role.I also think that Cole and JBL go so well together,they remind me of a young Jesse Ventura and Gorilla Monsoon.

Cole can be overbearing at times, but I've suffered through far worse.
Tony Schiavone in the last few years of WCW (early/mid 80's Tony was fine), David Crockett, Mark Madden are all names that make me tolerant of Mister Skull.

How does doing a major spot help you win the match Michael? To play Devil's Advocate here, said spot could take your opponent out of the match. That was the case in the MitB match Cole is better than JR. Two words show why: "STONE COLD! STONE COLD! STONE COLD!" |

cole > coach. but cole = grisham. jbl > coach. tna > coach
michael cole is okay, him and jbl are getting better as an announce team. jbl surprises me with his occasional historical wrestling knowledge, which is great for old school fans. cole does feed him lines to get made fun of. he's like david crockett, but a better announcer.
