Ok is it just me or does it seem like JR is actually putting his heart into commentating again? Ever since the switch from Raw to SD he's been really getting into the matches and seems to have that fire he had back in the 90's instead of how he commented on Raw for the past few years where he sounded completely bored and didn't put any emotion into his commentary.
I dunno, it really caught me off guard when I heard JR commentating on Smackdown, becuase I expected him to be even worse than what he was recently on Raw since he seemed really bitter about the brand switch.

I noticed it at the Night of Champions PPV. JR really stepped up his game for some reason

Maybe it's because it's a whole new atmosphere for JR, and it's like he's been reintroduced to commentating for wrestling.

Maybe he is trying to make up for acting like a 3 year old? Or perhaps when Vince had a 'conversation' with him, something was said. Either way, good to see him put some life in it, I personally just think he works well with Mick.

Maybe it's because there is actual wrestling to commentate over on SD!.

Him and Foley are trying to get some chemistry together just like JR did with King in the late 90's when he was great but I've always thought he was good.

Maybe cuz Vince finally told him how bad he had become and that was the reason he was moved to Smackdown.

Or maybe they go back and insert some new commentary into the spots that JR sounds boring...
But yeah, it does sound like JR is getting back into it on Smackdown. That is, if they aren't doing what I said above.

I'm liking the announce teams as they are now. JR was stale and the move has been great for him.

I think he's trying a little harder... But I really think it's more the fresh combination of him and foley.. He had stagnated on Raw...
But thanks to the move, he's my favorite play by play man again.

I bet JR and King were busy playing on King's computer at the RAW announce desk and that was the reason they weren't trying. In actual fact JR is bored now he's on SmackDown...
