Never liked him. Ever.
Never will like him. And people wanted their heel commentators so badly? Fine. Deal with them.

He actually makes me miss my least favorite character in wrestling history, heel Michael Cole.

Ole, What's Up! and Mrs. Fandango. Those three things seriously need to stop. He'd be much less annoying to me then.

I have hated him since the inception of JBL.
I get that's what he is going for, but it goes well beyond heel trolling for me. I don't want him to exist.

I love him. He's got his few weekly repeated phrases that can get a bit annoying, but every commentator these days has those. If we just went back to JBL and Maggle, I'd be totally fine with that announce team. Jerry's put in years of hard work, and that's great...but it's been time to call it a day for years now.

"HE'S A SEVEN-FOOT CRIMINAL! SOMEBODY ARREST HIM!" -- JBL during almost every Big Show segment since his firing.
That does get annoying, I've got to admit.

He's a heel/color commentator. If he annoys you then he's doing his job. By that logic, every week he could hum badly for three hours straight, and it'd be ok, because it annoys people and is therefore effective heel work. Well in that example he isn't doing his job which is to commentate on what's actually happening in the ring. That's not the same thing of saying something bad about a face to get heat.

But he's not doing that. He's an inconsistent face/heel depending on how he feels at any given moment, rarely contributes to actual talk about what's going on in the ring, as he's too busy referencing irrelevant sports and making bad jokes to try and get himself over, and he's done more to make the people he interacts with look worse than look better. However, even if he was the best announcer ever, the logic in the post I quoted would still be awful, because it gives a pass to do literally anything annoying on the basis annoying = good heel.

Virtually everything annoying about him lately is actually his non heel stuff.
His heel stuff is fine. But he only is a heel like 40% of the time. Then the rest he's hyping up the Usos or Los Matadores or something in the lamest way possible.
