Schivone would be great in the WWE. He was a very good announcer in his time who just lost his passion during the dying days of WCW. People mock his commentary but he was generally very good and could get you really into a match. I don't really understand all the hate he gets.

***Tries his best Lashley Impression*** ***Pause*** NnnnOoo! Did it work? Close. Try punching yourself in the crotch while sucking helium and wearing tight pants. No Tony, please.

Tony says he hates the business, but I still vote yay! Why? Because he is still better than Don West, Michael Cole, and Tazz. My sentiments exactly.

Keep Schiavone off of my TV set.

Schiavone is good as long as he's not forced into hyperbole. I wouldn't mind his return. He's better than Cole, knows the business, and has a good voice.

Maybe if he's on Smackdown. I imagine JBL would have quite the interchange with him.

No.
I wasn't a fan of his work in WCW ... it would be like WWE hiring Don West. Both annoying.

Personally I liked Schiavone's commentary in the WWF and WCW.

Nah, they should hire the WSX play by play guy for Smackdown to replace Michael Cole, he was awesome.

Tony was an excellent commentator back in the NWA days. I think what happened with Tony is that he was the lead announcer for an organization that had the WWE possibly on the brink of collapse. So no wonder that maybe Tony got excited at times using hyperboles. But then to see the same organization suddenly lose all momentum till its dying days would take all the fun away per se. As a side note I thought Ross was an even better announcer back in the NWA than he is now.

He should come back and wear that Mickey Mouse hat that Jesse so generously gave him as a gift.

Funny you mention this. For years in an e-fed with friends, we had a Tony/JR commentary team. JR would always condescend Tony, slap him around, etc. Tony was a sniveling little brat who was prone to screaming "ITS STING!!!!!!!!!!!" or "GOLDBERG!!!!!!!!!" or "BULLS***!" for no reason at random times. That should actually happen...in a world. "Side headlock now on--" "BULLSHIT!" ".......*SLAP*"

I wouldn't mind seing Tony come back. He was and is still better than Taz and Michael Cole.
As for Don West I think he would fit in well in the WWE.
