I think WCW in the '96-'98 period had the best announcing team of all time. You had Mike Tenay, who could call a match move-for-move while giving you the wrestlers' back-stories and whatnot all at the same time, all without skipping a beat. You had Tony Schiavone, who didn't know a damn thing about a damn thing, but he at least made it sound exciting. And then you had Bobby Heenan, who was, well, Bobby Heenan. Every now and then you'd get Zybysko, who wasn't in Heenan's league but made for a nice substitute, or Dusty Rhodes, who absolutely defines the term "unintentional hillarity."
Anyways, out of today's crowd, I'd say the best announcing team is Tazz and Cole. They can be a little irritating, but when they're in top form, they're absolute gold (listen to their alternate commentary on the Chris Benoit DVD to see what I mean)
