Maybe, but that tone strikes me as more of an attack than a rib.

Yeah that sounds more like a dig at Coachman but to be fair, Coachman never said he hated his time in the WWE since he still gives occasional references to wrestlers or wrestling when he does his highlights. Could also be a dig at Striker but that is because Striker has a lot of knowledge about wrestling compared to the other announcers in WWE which makes him seem like a smartass.
All those people JR mentioned either were owners/bookers of a company or had decades of experience as an announcer and/or wrestler which helped create their special personality as an announcer to the fans. |

If I were getting into the business today to announce I'd study Jim Ross.

I almost said 'quiet shots' in the thread title, but decided against it.
He probably really wanted to answer that, but he didn't want to sound arrogant. |

Bitter.
And if I was getting into annoucing today, my biggest inspiration would be CM Punk. |

This begs one question.

I liked how Jim Ross pissed off Cole so much on one episode of Raw last year for one night commentating only.. I HATE COLE...
And I enjoyed Cole saying goodbye and good riddance and Jim Ross just slapped his head with his cowboy hat hard... Fuck Cole.. Jim Ross >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Cole. I also hate his stupid repetitious I have an e-mail everytime his laptop "beeps." He's a stupid BOT REPLIER.... |

Hey Thrilla, you're a mod, right? Can you have a word with AAA about installing some kind of IQ test during the sign-up process?

He may be a bit of a mark, but you don't have to insult his cooking. I find his spaghetti to be passable.

Josh Mathews is amazing right now. The guy just seems to click well. He's studied who his peers are, and he essentially has chemistry with all of them. He can switch between play-by-play and color pretty much seamlessly. The only time he comes off "too cool for school" is when he is on NXT sometimes. But that's sort of a running gag there.

I think you guys may be reading too much into what JR wrote.

Srsly Cole right now is way more 'enjoyable' on commentary than JR was the past few yrs. So is Josh Matthews. JR needs to STFU.
