I have to split this list into two categories:
1 - Play by Play Man:
Gorilla Monsoon Gordan Solie Vince McMahon Jim Ross
2 - Color Commentators:
Jessie "the Body" Ventura Bobby "the Brain" Heenan Mike Tenay (He added way more as a color guy then he did as Play by Play in TNA) Jerry Lawlor
HM:
Joey Styles - He was just barely off my list of color guys. I'd even go as far as saying his ECW time puts him on par with Jim Ross but having the WWE hold him back hurt his stock in my eyes.

Gorilla Monsoon Bobby Heenan Jim Ross Vince McMahon, I really wish I could add a fifth as I think that Vince and Jesse worked amazingly well as a pari.

Play by play: Gordon Solie Marc Lowrance Tony Schiavone Bill Mercer Lance Russell
Color commentary: Bobby Heenan Jesse Ventura Gorilla Monsoon Jim Cornette
I'm keeping Joey Styles off the list because I can't stand his fake laugh and the way he screams "cat fight".

Joey Styles is number 1 in my book.
Vince McMahon
Tenay or Schiavone (Madden wasn't bad).
The last space is too hard to choose either Larry Rivera, Joel Gertner, or one of the Chikara revolving commentators (Sweeny, Ultramantis, Hero, Quack). They all have their brilliant qualities.

Im gonna have to split this. Play by Play & color are really two different things so I think there should be two separate lists.... Play by Play Gordon Solie Jim Ross Gorilla Monsoon Tony Schiavone Color Commentary Bobby Heenan Jerry Lawler Jesse Ventura Jim CornetteThe cream of the crop of heel commentators right here.

For me it's JR, King, Heenan and Gorilla. If I could pick, like, three more I would add Vince, The Body and Schiovane.
