They act like it's the 1st female announcer in company history. I recall Lita doing color on Heat back in 2003 and Mike McGuirk as well back in the late 80s especially when the WWF was in Houston.

They should have just made the Smackdown team do both shows.

Should have replaced Graves. I love both Cole, and Coach on commentary.

Neither were the premier show. Heat was a throwaway by 2003 and Houston is just one market. Raw is the a show and the one they put the most value in. So this is actually big deal.

Nothing against Renee - and she's nice to look at and everything... but would've preferred Nigel to replace Coachman.

Now if we can just get rid of Graves I wouldn't say get rid of him, but his current suck up to all heels shtick is the absolute worst. He used to be really good at calling matches, in depth descriptions and wouldn't favor heels or faces but actually stick up for who he felt was in the right and it was always logical. I'd love for this Graves to return, but the current "MELLA IS MONEY JUST BECAUSE" one is borderline as bad as any commentator I can remember. i remember this also happened with Cole and Lawlor i believe? one favored the heels and other favored the faces either way, Graves can be very entertaining at times and it seems like hes just trying to bring the favoring back again. one thing is for sure though, i wouldnt make him do double time though, just one roster

I'd really like to see Nigel replace Tom or Byron on Smackdown since those two guys are robotic and sound identical. I like the dynamic Renee brings to the table on Raw. I thought she had quite a bit more energy on Monday than she did last week. I think she's comfortably better than Coach already but I'm happy to let her have a shot at growing into that role. Plus, Smackdown still feels like more of the wrestling show, and Nigel's experience would be of better use on that brand imo, especially with guys he's worked like AJ, Bryan, and Joe all being team blue.

Since several people seem to be confused, read it slow... "Renee Young as the first woman to join the Monday Night Raw broadcast booth full time".
This has NOTHING to do with Lita, the 80's, or Prime Time Wrestling. They aren't making this out to be more than it is.
Rather than being in a hurry to complain, try reading the actual announcement. Twice if you have to.

Is she allowed to comment when hubby is in the ring though? When Ambrose returned, she went completely silent.

that's fine, Coach was pretty good; but a little variety is good

I truly believe Coach was that bad on purpose. Almost like Vince wanted to Graves to get over as a fully fledged savage. There is no way someone can be so clueless while making so much money.
