I'd like to know people's opinion on Scott Stanford

Personally, I feel he is an immensely underrated commentating presence in the WWE. When it comes to the IWC, we have our favourites -- and that extents to commentators as much as anything. There is usually a common opinion shared by a large number of "smart" wrestling fans: No team will ever touch Gorilla Monsoon & Bobby Heenan, Jim Ross is the greatest of all-time, JBL is a fantastic color man, etc.

But I never hear anything about Mr. Scott Stanford, who I feel might just be the most underrated performer on the WWE roster. Think about it. Almost everyone has at least some portion of fans. Heath Slater has some supporters on here (and rightly so), and Jinder Mahal has maybe three people who want to see him succeed (myself included), but no one ever talks about Stanford.

It's clear the man is a fan of the business, as he is always bringing up facts about the last time guys faced, who won that match, their past rivalries and such. He's also got a surprising amount of personality. Although it is Josh Mathews who plays the color analyst when they are working together, it is Stanford who really brings humour and personality into the equation, with Mathews often not knowing exactly how to react (but clearly having a good time).

Anyway, share your thoughts on, in my opinion, the most underrated announcer in modern WWE history.
