I enjoy the choice because I was hoping that they would pick someone no one would really expect.

I was gonna be pissed if it was Stone Cold because I hate the guy...

Also....was I the only person hoping that the end of Raw would have gone something like this...

*Adamle is revealed as GM*

Adamle: "Hello guys, well I would like to inform you that at Summerslam it will be you John Cena.....Vs Batista......In the ELIMINATOR!!!!"

If Vickie Guerrero works as a GM, the sky's the limit for Adamle. He's actually a pretty funny guy from some of the backstage skits I've seen. I look forward to this.

Anyway, to those reporting that Adamle RUINED the GM announcement by standing up when Shane came out, and hopping in the ring with a mic... he's an announcer. Announcers do that all the time, particularly during big moments. Fans watching Adamle enter the ring with the mic may well have said "shit! Adamle's the GM!"... or on the other hand they may have just thought that the broadcaster entering the ring with a mic was just doing his normal job. Where's the beef?

An announcer going into the ring, especially mid-segment, is very rare in WWE. Announcers are used for either backstage segments, bikini contests or storylines. They weren't backstage and I'm damn sure nobody was expecting to see Batista and Cena in bikinis.

I think Kofi Kingston's going to be given the Contra Code by Adamle.

Punk vs. Kingston at every PPV until Kofi wins the World Title.

All I'm saying is it was possible that a few or maybe many people instantly assumed it was him, but it would have been nothing out of the ordinary for an announcer to hop into the ring to conduct an interview. If they DID expect him straight away, they were actively looking for the swerve.

Considering it's a rare occurrence, yes, it WOULD be out of the ordinary.

Anyway, let's be realistic here, most people probably didn't even notice anyway, and no, it wouldn't have "ruined" it, it was going to be a mixture of confusion, boos and silence once they made the announcement any way you look at it. I agree it's an over reaction, but not for the reasons you state.

Just because it doesn't happen as often as it once did doesn't mean that next time you see Michael Cole climb the steps, mic in hand, you're going to suddenly think "OMG! Cole's gonna turn fuckin' heel!" Doesn't mean the next time the new number one contender is going to be announced and Jim Ross stands up, you're gonna think "No Freakin' Way! Good old JR is going to challenge the champion!!"... and it shouldn't mean that you'd assume Mike Adamle is going to be named GM just because he approached the ring as an announcement was about to made. If ever a mic man is required, it's when a big angle is going down.

But then, maybe these same people thought Mean Gene Okerlund was going to be the third Outsider at Bash at the Beach '96 too.

There was a TON of that kind of thing in 1997, actually (when watching the MNW shows they play on WWE 24/7, wish they would post new ones of them more often, though). Especially on WCW, you ALWAYS seemed to see Mean Gene going to the ring for an interview on Nitro or something like that. So yeah, I do think it was overreaction there.

Well, that and how don't we know that it was Vince McMahon or someone else that told him to go to the ringside apron at that point before the show or in his headset at that point?

Nonetheless, this will be an awesome reign. I can see Vicki and Adamle feuding over stars and that and trying to be the bigger asshole or something, or Adamle could REALLY cause mayhem by having Raw invade ECW or SD and fuck with someone else's show. There's a ton of potential with this thing.
