King and JR are the voice of wrestling for me. The only thing I don't like is his Cena ass kissing. I don't mind the Vickie is fat and ugly jokes. I wish Cole would go away.

Lawler is fine when he's working with JR
Nobody works well with Cole, IMO

I literally can not stand Jerry Lawler. I respect him and what he has put into this business but I can't stand listening to him. He acts like he is a 20 frat boy something year old and I'm sick of the guy.

Lawler is great, Michael Cole is the main (sole?) problem with WWE's commentary. When Michael's voice went out, Booker and King did a great job at NoC. They did a great job? His voice going out was obviously not Cole's fault and Lawler mentioned that Cole lost his voice two times,when he's supposed to cover the situation.That's one of the many reasons Lawler is an idiot on commentary,decent wrestler though. IF you read, he never said that Cole's voice going out was Cole fault. And as for him mentioning that Cole's voice went out? That was what he was supposed to do because that is what he was told to do. Can't call him an idiot for doing what he was told.

I'd take Cole over King any day. Just my opinion. An opinion we share. When he lets up on trying to get himself over (which he seems to lighten up on, except during Daniel Bryan matches), Cole's a pretty good commentator. Nine times out of ten, King is just annoying.

Cole's a self-obsessed douchebag, JR calls it as if it were a real sport, Josh Matthews is a pansy, Matt Striker is a know it all, and Booker is always hyped.
But King doesn't do anything to stand out anymore.
I really can't think of anything he COULD do, now that Cole is supposed to be THE heel commentator.

As a wrestler, he was great as both a face and a heel.
As a heel commentator, he was great(even though his schitick was just Bobby Heenan-lite.)
Ever since he turned face though as a commentator, for whatever reason, it seems like his give a s*** broke.

Hate his greasy awful hair, hate his silly douchebag shirts, hate his commentary. Otherwise I really like him. He still has a fantastic punch, cuts great promos as a wrestler and can have more entertaining matches than guys way more athletic than he is. I have respect for The King, just wish he'd stop wearing those awful shirts and putting motor oil in his hair.

I loved Jerry in the 90s when i first got in to wrestling. I still like the guy but he has gotten stale, Lawler is suited better as a heel announcer and the pervy announcer

I imagine newer fans probably find it hard to believe, but Lawler actually was a great commentator at one time. His commentary began its steady decline in quality sometime in the middle of the Attitude era, then nosedived following his face turn in 2003. Since then it couldn't be more obvious that he doesn't give a shit. Terrible commentary is a huge problem in today's WWE, and he's probably the worst of the bunch, so yeah, I'd be pretty happy to see him go.

I don't know if I hate him, but to me he's easily by miles the absolute worst announcer WWE has. He's all sorts of awful, and brings absolutely nothing positive to the table.

Nine times out of ten, King is just annoying. I love the Cole/Booker/Matthews pairing (yes, I know, 3 is not a pairing) on Smackdown. It's about as good as any I've seen in WWE in quite some time.

He's gotten a little more bearable lately, except during Otunga and McGillicutty matches. I just want to smack him every time he gets to screaming about them being boring. But they made the Supershow a STUPORshow!! Still trying to figure out what that one meant.

I agree as well. And with Daniel Bryan looking to turn heel, Cole will probably tone it down there as well.
