I know this gets said a lot, but the commentation station at NoC was in rare, terrible form tonight.
They've been ramping up lately in their sheer chuckleheadedness, but tonight was just aggravating. Its like they kept forgetting they were calling a wrestling show up until the last match of the night.
Cole was honestly the LEAST annoying guy out there.

I didn't think it was that bad really.

As stated in that other thread, what I hated most was King claiming that we witnessed the FIRST EVER double sharpshooter tonight.   |

The sharpshooter thing was bad, but the worst was Cole saying over and over again that Jericho is an eight-time Intercontinental champion. He did eventually correct it, but he said it at least three times before doing so, probably more.

Rare terrible form?
Care to let me know where you're getting the good commentary? Because terrible form seems to be the standard on the Raw/Smackdown I'm watching.

Really can't stand any of the three. I think I'm going to start muting the shows and doing my own commentary.

Hey guys, remember that bit of American Football trivia? How about now? What if we mention this team? Funny, huh? Because this is a reference everyone in the world can get!

JBL still annoys me. He's pretty much what Cole was in late 2011/early 2012 agreeing with the heels and coming up with stupid explanations for why he's correct.
At least with other guys like Heenan they were more weasley so it fit their character more, JBL just comes off as an asshole

The only guy who ever did it right was Ventura, because he didn't ALWAYS try to spin everything. He made rationale points. Everyone else tries way too hard. |

My biggest problem with the commentary is JBL. "SPORTS Y'ALL."

Would you rather he say something like we've seen this before which while true seriously downplays the hype of the move? No, I'd rather he just simply call the double sharpshooter. No need to bring up that she's done it before, but you can put over a move without referring to it as the "first ever". I could maybe understand if this were the first time Natalya in particular did the move, but it's not. It's at least the third time she's done it. |

THERE'S NO WAY JOHN CENA CAN GET BIG SHOW UP FOR THE AA. They do that all the time. Well, yeah. Doesn't make it okay. Also, at least those examples you gave have a certain level of subjectivity. Something being the "first ever" is a fairly concrete fact. |
