Now, hear me out.
I have been watching wrestling since early 1996, and just like the rest of you... I hated Michael Cole just like everyone else. But this whole angle/storyline lately where Cole is actually becoming a Character is great. I think he plays the Role well, and he can genuinely be a heel. It almost comes natural to him, unlike some other Heels who have to "try" and be a bad guy and fail at is miserably.
One of my favorite segments lately was during NXT. I went Sep 14th Live in Detroit for Smackdown, and before SD, NXT was taped. Cole went wild, saying that NXT is ridiculous, and stupid, and sorta went crazy hitting the gong over and over, then finally walked out.
I can now take Cole as not just an announcer, but a bad guy character... and Since I love heels... Michael Cole fits in real well.
What are your thoughts?
