Heenan was a good color man period. The 98 Heenan/Schivoni team was gold in WCW.

And I'm glad I'm not the only guy who's high on bringing Tony back. He has that JR style about him, or did, when he was in WCW, and would fit in nicely, but now I'm starting to think that maybe Cole doing RAW, Vince's favorite brand, wouldn't be too bad in the interm. Still seems as though SD wouldn't be the same without that "dorky" voice of his since he's been on that show so long. Joey is pure ECW, and I don't think anyone would ever be able to associate another voice with ECW other than him. Thus, unless ECW is canned, then Joey has to stay there. Still, too, Todd Grisham's commentary made Vince blow his load that one night, giving me the impression that he could also be an option.

Seems to me this is going to be a hard choice. Cole STILL has his haters that will be burning down Stamford if he got onto RAW, everyone KNOWS how Schivoni was forced to call the matches and hype the shows, and while Grisham is an excellent PBP guy, not many have been able to see what he can do as anything more than Heat or as a ring announcer, not to mention that no one knows if any of them would even TAKE the job yet.

Then again, they could ask that UFC guy again and throw some more money to him, or get some brand new face to do PBP.
