We all know before he became the Mr. McMahon character, Vince was an amazing commentator on the Fed.. After seeing some of the matches he called, I was so damn impressed with his commentating skills.. Very energetic and electrifying yet still very articulate.. Of course it would be impossible to see him do that these days but do you think he was that awesome?

Yeah, Vince was an awesome commentator. I especially loved the intros he used to do for WrestleMania and The Royal Rumble. Those were classic.

1...2........HE GOT 'EM! HE GOT 'EM! NO! He didn't get him!
Vince probably loved doing commentary he could get over whoever he wanted.

It would be awesome if just for one night Vince would break from the Mr. McMahon character and go back to the announce table....

I look back and I cringe. He had enthusiasm, but he could not call a single move outside of a finisher. OHH WHATAMANEUVER!!!

He's a pretty good commentator. He definetly hyped his talent, that's for sure. I dunno though, it's like he couldn't decide on the pitch of voice to use, lol.

Vince probably snorted so much cocaine before each night of commentary.
He is definitely one of the most energetic and colorful play-by-play commentators to ever exist, but one of the worst as far as accurately calling the maneuvers in the ring.
His fake laughs always crack me up, though.

Vince McMahon is a great announce. He can get you into a match with his announcing. The way he announced title matches was the best, because he made it seem like it was the end at all times 1,2,NEW CHAMPION and no no. Though he didn't really call many moves, it really isn't a big deal to me. Hey he does a better job than Tony Schiavone, Scott Hudson, Don West, Larry Zybysko, Mongo, Todd Grisham, Jim Cornette, Dok Hendrix that's most of them.

I totally agree with you, the early Rumble's & Survivor's are most memorable for me. "World Wrestling Federation Champion, THE ULLLLTTTIMAAATE WARRRRIIORR!!!& Mr. Perfect. Join fellow members, The Texas Tornado, Crush, along with Animal, Ax, Hawk, Smash, its The Warriors vs The Perfect Team" Lol, that always sticks in my memory for some reason.
