I loved the team of Michael Cole, Booker T and Josh Matthews. Granted, they all had their flaws, but when they were calling Smackdown, it felt as though they were really left to call their own stuff, and some of the stuff they were coming up with was more entertaining than anything going on in the ring.

This is not really in the same frame of discussion, but I felt really sorry for Ricardo Rodriguez when he was given like two weeks on Main Event. The guy can be fun on the mic (although we've never really heard him properly promo -- he just does the ring intro shtick), but he seemed so lost out there with Josh Mathews and The Miz. He'd be asked a question and you could just hear him either thinking or listening to what he's supposed to say over the headset. Then he'd just randomly start getting excited in Spanish, lol.

SmackDown commentary teams always seem to be the best for some reason. Even if it's one like Todd Grisham & Jim Ross.

lol I think the thing with Booker and Savage is how bad they were is always entertaining no matter how you look at it. Other commentators who suck just suck and you want them to go the fuck away.

Did Warrior ever do any commentary at all? After reading this thread and taking a few strolls down memory lane, I think commentary by THE VOOOIIIICCCCCEESSSSSSSS would be pretty hilarious....and awful.

Neither were great as commentators nor were the worst but give the slight nod to Booker T.
Savage might have been too deep into his "Macho Madness" character which is why a lot of times he barely made any sense. Either that or a lot of drugs considering the era he was in. Booker T was pretty brutal for a while after returning with some of that being him new to all the changes and the other being him randomly saying stuff that didn't make sense even from his character's perspective. |

another awful one was Paul Boesch.
Prior to running the Houston territory he wrestled in the 30s to the early 60s. He is brutally awful to listen to on the Houston-Mid South footage. He often times mixed up names as well. |

Madden, Bartlett, Adamle & West don't count as they didn't wrestle.

Seeing as to how Spilchuk's list is entitled as it is, I think they count just fine.

How is "got to add moves to my repertoire" remotely dumb? Bobby Heenan would talk about wrestlers "taking notes" in WCW whenever a wrestler would walk out to watch another's match.

I didn't have a problem with him saying he wanted to add moves to his repertoire, it was how he said repertoire, he just sounded like an idiot, it was so ill timed. He was like "I'm gonna add some moves to my REPERTOIAAAAAAA" like pronounced the r as an a. He was just way too gimmicky to be a commentator.

I enjoyed Madden's ridiculous justifications for the actions of the heels, although he does come across as very angry on his blog.

With how lots of folks are attacking Booker T and his endless catchphrases, I'm surprised Tazz hasn't come into the discussion.
