heel. These guys have been there just way too long and have got extremely stale. What was wrong with keeping lawler a heel or ross a heel? Ross screws up his lines at least once a week these days. They should be lucky that the gorilla or heenan or ventura arent around anymore. Or they would be gone.

Yeah I'm so bored by both of them. JR is looking more and more like that old WCW spoof of him, Oklahoma "CHAIR, CHAIR, CHAIR!" oh and him calling the Whisper of the Wind the Twist of Fate is really terrible and makes Micheal Cole seem like a better announcer.
Lawler not being a heel is terrible and in no reality should be praising Cena or Hardy and should be on Cena's case saying he's just a street punk and should say Hardy will kill himself with his moves. I mean this team no longer works and new one has to be made. The only problem is that might mean Todd Grisham would be come the PBP man on Raw which would suck badly.

If heel JR gets his own mini announcers desk, then I'm all for it.
EDIT: And I'm glad that I'm not the only one who really hates the Grish....I just cringe when I put in a new DVD and see that man's face all over it.

If they go, they'll put Grisham in there and that's worse than even the worst Ross & King.
That's still a spoiler

Maybe if they turn JR he'll bring back "RVD", "Booker T", "Kurt Angle", and "Christian"

I honestly think that King should go. It's all been downhill since 2004 when he fought to bring back J.R. Afterwards it's just been pathetic.

Yeah, let's turn the wrestlers heel, let's turn the announcers heel, and bring in japanese guys for 2 hour long matches; that will solve everything  |

I think JR and Lawler are still doing great jobs, much better than they were a few years ago.

He hasn't been heel in a long long time, so that's not quite the point to make. Their existing formula of calling matches down the middle (albeit making alot of mistakes these days) is working. Why do things have to change because someone on the internet has a problem with them? Do the ratings fall because people don't like their announcing? If they did, that'd be an indication that they needed new announcers. However, I hardly see an uproar about announcing because it's not a really big battle to fight. Next someone's going to complain about the guys setting up the stages... and I think it's already been argued about. Just my two cents. |

I don't think it would make a huge difference in ratings or anything, but I would personally be more entertained if Lawler was a heel again.

See, I don't really think it's working and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that thinks that. Lawler doesn't have to be a full-fledged heel like he was back in the mid-90's but having two face commentators at the booth gets boring really fast. Both of them are going to be knocking on the heel and praising the face. I'd like things to be much more balanced. And I'm pretty sure Lawler can adjust being a heel again, he's been in the business long enough to do that without much of a problem. |

why all the Grish hate? that man is the future of wwe announcing, his work on heat beats all of the wwe announcers, except styles. and this is not sarcatic, i am being genuine.

Personally I've kinda grown tired of them as well. Simply put, their commentary at this point sounds completely scripted. No real emotion at all. After viewing a leaked Raw script from awhile back, nowadays I can almost picture what one looks like just based off of what they say on air.
