What is so great about Jim Ross? He's much older now and it's apparent that he isn't anywhere as good as he used to be many years ago. I don't enjoy his commentating and he is very repetitive. Whenever Triple H walks down to the ring, 9 times out of 10 he says "Business just picked up, Tazz". I mean seriously, does that entertain you? It's not like commentating improves the overall show quality either. Michael Cole may be one of the most underrated commentators in WWE history. He's entertaining, and he actually puts enthusiasm in his voice and sounds like he cares about the show. Ross just sounds like it's just another day at the workplace for him.
Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler are in my opinion, the most entertaining pair on commentary at the present moment. They seem to have fairly good chemistry, and they actually make you get more hyped up for the show you are watching, whether it be on Raw or on pay per view. Yes, they may be a little more interesting if Lawler was a heel so he could argue with Cole, and that would be pretty damn hilarious, but you can't have everything.
So I think things should stay the way they are now. JR is older, and more boring than Cole. Raw needs to move on, and I think it already has. Ross won't be around forever, and I think Cole is a worthy replacement.
