And this thread is exhibit A of why Cole is the best Heel in all of the WWE How? He helps people decide to change the channel to MNF which helps cause ratings like a 2.8 for this Monday's RAW?

The constant bickering between Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler just ruins Raw sometimes.

Actually, just being an overseas show is what caused that rating. Everyone knows nothing important ever happens on an overseas show. I caught the first half hour and skipped the rest because there hasn't been much happening in the first place lately let alone on an overseas show.

Everyone knows nothing important ever happens on an overseas show. I caught the first half hour and skipped the rest because there hasn't been much happening in the first place lately let alone on an overseas show. That doesn't explain the other sub-3.0 rated RAWs this year. The 4th of July show is the only one they had a good reason to expect a 2.whatever rating for. The overseas RAW in April of this year did a 3.1, the overseas RAW last November did a 3.1 and the overseas RAW last April did a 3.2. It's not just that's it's overseas. I'm not saying Cole's the reason the people who tune out do, but he's certainly a contributing factor.

Cole is probably a small contributing factor, but there's other factors that drag down Raw such as the lack of a truly compelling story line currently (Miz/Truth are supposed to be a legit threat to Rock/Cena? Please.)

Certainly, the stories aren't great. However, when an announcer, especially the one who is supposed to sell the product to the fans is even a tiny reason for viewers tuning out and is as over the top heelish as Cole is, you have a problem.

I like Cole with Booker T.
i hate Cole with Lawler.
I hate Cole when he's involved in storylines.
If he's going to be involved in storylines, he needs to become a manager or something. He is entirely too annoying to have a voice through out the entire show. Could you imagine Vickie on commentary all night? He needs a role like Vickie.

You're telling me you've had enough of Cole and not King? You serious, bro? Cole is hands down, the most entertaining announcer, even more that Booker, whether you like him or hate him, and Lawler..is just..god awful boring and not funny. I hate his voice.

The only time Cole takes away from the talent is on Raw. Any negative Cole issues I blame him having a terrible person to play off of in Lawler. Smackdown commentary is dynamite lately (despite Josh Matthews who unfortunately is stuck in the 'being fed' position). This... I hate replying in a thread with thatI love the way Cole acknowledges Bookers cock ups and then Booker responds, either verbally or physically (looks at Cole with crazy eyes) and Josh tries t bring attention to the ring. King has been stale since 06ish and unfortunately JR doesn't seem to be able to either call a weekly show or want to convince WWE enough to do it. I do agree that Cole should be a manager though, Booby Heenan style where he leaves to attend to his clients then returns either boastful in victory or embarrassed and full of excuses in defeat. Sometimes Cole is annoying but in a product aimed towards the younger audience he does well to not be liked. I do find it amazing though that in the Mattel board there was a big thread about how Cole should be his own figure and yet everyone seems to hate him.

I hate Cole
Lawler has seen better days and makes a mediocre face imo, huge King fan though.
I never was a big JR, he was great in the NWA/WCW 10/10 announcer there, i'll never take that away from him. But i still am not a big fan.
I really enjoyed Mcmahon on commentary and Loved Jesse Ventura on color.
But my real favorite will always be Gorilla Monsoon. Loved him,i just thought the world of his work.

I'm sick of Cole as well, he's become to much of a character in my opinion. And I just really don't like when they waste time focusing on the announcers. They are taking away time that could be spent to utilise the real talent.

He can get over-the-top but he's MILES ahead of King, who just resorts to Vickie jokes and burying all the heels. I'm actually very entertained by Cole, while I'd give anything for Lawler to retire.

Things like the announcing hardly go noticed to me. I notice Cole will say the same thing about Bryan every week, but I don't pay too much attention to it. That's it.
