Also doesn't help that him with Cole doesn't mix as well as a team compared to his longer team-up with J.R. Neither one seems to be really helping the other on commentating and as a result they appear bland. Overall, Lawler needs to be blamed more since when J.R. moved to Smackdown, J.R. adapted well to the new team and became fresh while Lawler has been bland since the split.
Cole worked very well with JBL since they both ended up creating an announcing team that meshed well with 2 different styles. JBL acted like the "heel" announcer but it was more in countering Cole's character than being anti-face for a wrestler in the ring.
