I know it is cool to shit on the guy, but I think he could have been better unchained. Inversely, if JR came into the business when Cole did and got micromanaged to death, nobody would be singing his praises now.

Semi related: Mrs. Ambrose has already be ruint. When she started on the desk, she sounded like she was actually there calling shit. Now, she literally sounds like she is being fed every sound byte and repeating it verbatim. Kind of like the old Smackdown games with King's commentary quips that could (and were) inserted anywhere in a match.

I wonder, on a scale, where everyone would fit in people appreciating what they can do in the booth if they were allowed to just "be". Pretty sure Cole would be seen in a better light. Not so much for someone like Saxton, who always sucked ass. He was better in the ring, and that's not saying much.
