The most annoying thing about Michael Cole is his face bias. If he lost that, and pulled out that jounalist ego complex more often than not, he'd be a lot better, in my opinion. Not a full blown heel turn, or anything, but he should be the most dislikable of the three play-by-play commentators. Except for Todd Grisham on Heat. I'd actually make that guy a heel.

Joey Styles is better than him, in my opinion, but Cole is nowhere near as bad as people make out.

Cole needs someone more colorful with him. I didn't watch SmackDown because I can't stand the Coach and Cole combo. Cole is the kinda guy other people can feed off of. I loved Cole and Tazz, same goes for Cole and JBL. But what we have with Cole and Coach is a team about as epic as Barry Horowitz and The Brooklyn Brawler.

Let me say this: Joey is better in the real world. But Cole is the best WWE commentator.

I agree. Coach isn't at the stage where he feels like someone who really adds knowledge to a broadcast. What's Bill DeMott doing these days? That guy was pretty excellent when he was color commentator of Velocity.

Hmm, I haven't really compared them thoroughly, but I really like Styles regardless of where he is. His biggest flaw at the moment is that he doesn't sound passionate. Styles does a great job of keeping up with continuity and stuff.

DeMott was good, but I think WWE should drive a tuck load of money up to Canada and re-sign Don Callis.

Styles does a good job of continualy annoying me, he sucks ass compared to cole, sure cole needs a bit more work but he has been around longer then styles who's voice just makes me want to knife someone

I never really heard much of Callis, so I'm unfit to comment, but a lot of people seem to love him. :y:

I say, if we really NEED to switch-out Coach, get Al Snow.

Bill DeMott can eat my ass.

If they want to replace Coach, I hear Raven is free (although he says he would never work for WWE again).

Raven : I will NEVER work for the WWE again! :foc::foc:

*phone rings*

Raven : Really?! I'LL BE THERE IN 5 MINUTES!!!!!

Cole: AND NOW LET ME INTRODUCE MY NEW BROADCAST COLLEAGUE...JOHNNY POLO!

Raven: ...

Cole : Nice pink suit there!

I hope he brings his sound effects machine to SmackDown.

Add a little glamour.

Honestly, that would be incredible.

TNA made a huge mistake by not making Raven their color commentator to work alongside Mike Tenay, in my opinion.
