This.

I never hated Michael Cole, although i'll admit to being pissed off when they switched him & JR as Raw & Smackdown commentators. I love JR, and even if his abilities had deminished in the past few years, i'd still rather listen to him then anyone else. Period.

My problem with Cole, as has been stated, is the inconsistancy with which he commentates. He is SOOO overboard with the Miz that he might as well jump in the ring and give the man a hand job, but he switches out of his heal charicter as soon as Nexus enters the ring. Its very distracting.

Another thing I hate, and this is more to do with how hes being directed, is commentators interupting promos and talking shit about the guy in the ring, which Cole does whenever Daniel Bryan is talking. How does this put anyone over?

Just my thoughts
