JBL to come out of retirement *Spoilers*
Well if you didn't read the results of the PPV, but JBL interfered in the Jericho/Orton match. And this all leads to...

Oh no. He's fine at the booth, but I could give a fuck about his ring work.

Sweetness!
As mentioned, his ring work isn't so great... but I really really missed his promos. JBL, before he became an announcer, was a better heel than Edge or Randy Orton are currently in my opinion. Hopefully he will pick up with his awesomeness once again. |

Ew. JBL is great as a commentator, but we don't need to see him in the ring. Especially against Jericho. I mean, I can understand it if the WWE have been disappointed with how they've done with Y2J, but sticking him with JBL is just a waste. No one wins, there.
The only way this makes sense, is if Randy Orton is paying JBL APA-style to help him out. Jericho can get Ron Simmons in his corner, and we can get a tag team match between the two on RAW. Randy Orton gets the pin on Simmons, kicking his head off with the cunt punt. You can then put Ron Simmons on the shelf for a bit, Orton gets a win over Jericho, which he can use to deny Jericho a rematch. Jericho enters the Royal Rumble, and wins, despite JBL trying to take him out of the match. Orton retains the WWE Title against Jeff Hardy, and he sends JBL to soften Jericho up in an I Quit Match at No Way Out. Jericho wins that match, as JBL quits while in the Walls of Jericho, and HBK beats Orton for the WWE Championship in the main event. At WrestleMania, Randy Orton can be in an Evolution Four-Way against Triple H, Batista and Ric Flair, while JBL can do commentary. |

I'm slightly curious as to who they will get to replace JBL, though. I hope to God it's Paul Heyman. They can edit him on SmackDown!, if they really choose. It'll probably be Michael Hayes.
JBL could work as a manager/part-time wrestler, but why the WWE plans to pair him up with Jericho gives me a migraine. |

Michael Hayes IMO would be a decent choice, I forgot how good a talker he is, the MVP segment from a few weeks back reminded me of that, one of the best promo’s of the year IMO.
There’s always Dusty? Yes his lisp is annoying, but he can get such emotion from situations that a lot of current guys lack. Heyman of course would be my number 1 pick, as he’s excellent at getting talent over, but I can’t see them offering him a job anytime soon |

Heyman is the number 1 choice.
And if not then rather have Tazz and Styles call the smackdown! matches and have Cole do Heat. Todd? |

I'd like to see the Coach back in the chair to be honest. With him not being the active GM anymore, it makes sense.

I would not be opposed to Dean Malenko. Apparently the WWE were very close to getting him to do commentary once before. Paul Heyman is the ideal pick, but as you said, not very likely. Another name to mention is Tazz. He and Michael Cole work well together, and it would leave Joey Styles solo, or require him to get a new partner who can click better with. He and Tazz are both good commentators, but they don't seem to add up to as much as they could be together. |

Tazz could do both shows right, they are taped in the same arena, consecutively. Even better have JBL call his own matches via a headset, that could be funny.

As someone who is not a fan of Heyman as a commentator, I would rather have him than Rhodes or Hayes.
Is Raven busy? Hire him and bring him back as Johnny Polo, God dammit. |

on topic though, JBL vs. Jericho is good as long as it serves to elevate Jericho as we move forward into the new "season." heyman would actually get me to start watching smackdown again, but then again, he didn't come on the 15th Anniversay Special because, as he said, "the WWE have chased off the fanbase that would care about a Paul Heyman return." |

Mick Foley is a terrible color guy. Listen to his gabbering during ONS 1 - he was unprepared for the role and spent half his time hyping up inside jokes. I don't think he has what it takes to put over other performers without getting in the ring himself and getting smashed across the fash with a chair a couple of times.

Yeah moving Tazz from ECW and leaving Joey on his own looks the most likely IMO

Jericho/JBL will be a great build. But I don't really see the potential for a great match..

JBL's a good enough wrestler for a midcard deal. He's pretty bad as a wrestler, but so are a lot of other guys who are good on the mic. Plus, hhe's feuding with Jericho, who'll make him look good. I'm just not ready to start bitching yet.
When he and Cena get together for an iron man match for the title, we'll talk. |

Jericho and JBL on the mic will be pure gold. Jericho can make a bowl of pudding look good. (Old school TPWW)

I hate JBL for what he did last night. I felt pure hate for the guy when he did what he did. First time I've felt hate like that in a long time (as regards wrestling storylines).
So, well played WWE bookers. |

Expect Todd Grisham. That way, you won't be disappointed when it isn't someone good.
