Wow, no words. I can't even find an appropriate gif. How about a meme? ![](http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/500x/43965583.jpg)

I'm a US politics junkie and had followed the selfie stuff in the news. Even I didn't connect it to that. First, it's a 24 hr news cycle and it happened a full week ago. It had already been covered to death on the Daily Show and SNL and virtually everywhere else. So when you get a commentary team notorious for being obsessed with social media to take a selfie, how am I going to connect that to world leaders? Furthermore, they didn't even communicate in any way that it was lampooning Obama. As Randy says: "STUPID. STUPID!!" They actually did briefly allude to the incident, as well as the interpreter fiasco, but it was lost in all the other unmemorable tripe the team usually puts out.

Two guys dressed nice, and that actually look professional, and the other guy is wearing a freaking Ed Hardy shirt. I've said it countless times, and I'll say it again, somebody make King dress up. I know it's a minor thing, but it's f***ing annoying. The other commentators dress up and look professional, and there's King wearing those shirts. Even going back to his King robe would be better. Hey Vince, you want to copy the NFL, NBA, and MLB? The commentators for those sports don't dress like King, they dress like Cole and JBL.

He sticks out like a sore thumb in those ugly-ass Ed Hardy shirts. Or, preferably, he decides to announce his retirement. He's been awful on commentary for at least a decade now, and he ruins the amazing dynamic that Cole & JBL have when it's just them. The Slammys Raw was a breath of fresh air, and the commentary was great on it. The same applies to Smackdown, just in general.

I really wish they'd just use Michael Cole and Paul Heyman as commentators. My favourite commentating duo was JR and Heyman due to the sense that they really didn't like eachother, yet Heyman didn't obnoxiously yell at JR every second over the smallest remarks like JBL does to Cole. Cole is a damn fine announcer when not sat next to a complete idiot, and Heyman isn't really doing anything right now.
