Ludo*1 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Was JBL not lauded from pretty much all corners when he took up commentating again after a few year out on here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's extremely hard for a commentator to do well these days. JBL was good before. Now he isn't. It'll be interested to see if Ranallo can buck the trend, but I can just see him going the same way as every single other over time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Jerry Lawler has never been everyone's cup of tea as a commentator but I think he only became noticeably pish when Vince decided that commentators should promote something every 30 seconds rather than call the action. He just seemed to lose all interest and has became an annoyance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only been watching it for two years so I've no idea what he was like to begin with, but he's shocking. I can't stand him or his big shit-eating grin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bernardblack Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 CM Punk on commentary was gold. Especially Cole and himself on nxt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 CM Punk's character allowed for a bit more leeway though. Michael Cole was pretty good around that time as well. His heel commentator was probably the best there's been in the last few years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I quite like Cole - he gets a hell of a lot of (undeserved) stick from people who expect him to be JR or Gordon Solie.That's neither the role he is asked to do, nor the one he performs! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'm sticking by assertion that Schavione is the worst. Been watching Best of Nitro volumes 1&2 and he's just fucking awful. Brain and Zybysko aren't much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Zybysko was awful. It was pretty obvious that Heenan couldn't be f*cked most of the time as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Worth noting that within the last 24 hours, it came out that Vince is still waiting on confirmation from the doctor of WWE to clear him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Probably the same story that did the rounds last week with a "source" that claimed they were "WWE HR". Promptly rubbished by WWE themselves. EDIT: In fact, the blog that originally reported it is now claiming that his source was right all along. His proof? The "Daniel Bryan released" story from 2010 on WWE.com. You know, when he was with the Nexus EDIT2: Around all these released rumours...am I the only one that thinks that WWE would never go out of their way to release him of their own accord? They may never clear him to wrestle on their promotion - and maybe they've come to that conclusion already - but they'd be mental to not at least offer him another role within the company. If he came back tomorrow, he would get the biggest pop still. He would be a massive asset within the performance center and never have to come near the ring. He could even be a GM or manager type figure (although I doubt he'd go for that). So if they offered that, and he still said no, then surely it would still not come under him being "released". Surely, they would say that they offered him a few other deals, he rejected, and wish him well in future. If they had asked that, and then just gave him a non-fanfare release, that would just seem odd to me. Or maybe I'm over-thinking it.

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 He'll know that there is plenty of money to be made in the indies and Japan. Certainly a lot more that he'll be earning currently. I can't see him hanging around in a non-wrestling role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
