Whoever said that Cole is putting himself over and burying the in-ring talent, I beg to differ. He's not in a position to do either. His character is a well-documented douche bag, so I don't think his digs are meant to be taken seriously anyway. Sure he talks about how he doesn't like Daniel Bryan, but I don't see it as burying him at all...especially considering the things he doesn't like about him (he doesn't own a TV, he doesn't eat meat, etc.). That's just Cole being a douche, and it's funny if anything.

Nobody ever said Bobby Heenan was burying talents when he talked shit about them.

As far as Cole 'getting himself over', he's not really doing anything too self-serving. If there's anybody he's getting 'extra' over, it's The Miz and Alex Riley, but that's fine by me.
