It's weird though how there was very little consistency in that era of lead PPV announcers. I get that Schiavone was brought in to maybe take over from Monsoon but Vince never took to him so he never ended up fulfilling that role beyond two PPVs. So Monsoon was back in the saddle for Wrestlemania 6, but then Vince randomly pops up to host his first PPV (single venue) at Summerslam only for Monsoon to get the reigns back at the Survivor Series that year. Monsoon would go on a run of calling the 7 consecutive PPVs (SvS 90, RR 91, WM7, SS 91, SvS 91, RR 92, WM 8) only for Vince to come back and call Summerslam 92 and the 1992 Survivor Series. Then suddenly Monsoon gets RR 93 and was scheduled to host WM 9 that year.
It always struck me as odd how they seemed to settle on Monsoon being the lead announce guy for long periods of time and then suddenly switch to Vince only to switch it back to Monsoon again with intermittent periods of Schiavone in the middle.
Did Vince not like calling PPVs, if so why did he decide to call the odd random one here and there and what changed his mind so that by summer of 1993 he'd call pretty much all of them for a considerably period of time.
