Thanks Becca, your Lawler thread gave me new hope that Announcers can indeed be the focus point of discussion.
Now then, while I assume this thread will fail quicker than the XFL, this has legitimately been something on my mind for a while.
After watching Raw and the backstage segment with Cole and Shaq, I've come to the conclusion that Cole truly doesn't care for being with the Company and would much rather be unseen, and at times unheard.
In recent years, Michael Cole has openly expressed how Wrestling isn't his love and its just a job to him. With this being said, why is he the new Jim Ross of Monday Night Raw?? Surely, Matt Striker or even Todd Grisham have more enthusiasm to be the host of a top brand show. Move Cole to E.C.W, or better yet, Smackdown. (I don't get Smackdown, so I wouldn't have to hear him for the most part.)
So, the objective of this thread is to discuss your opinions of Michael Cole. Do you think he deserves the role he has? Do you think he should be canned/released and replaced? Do you think his role is too big, and perhaps he needs to be moved elsewhere??
For me, I just don't get excited from listening to Michael Cole. I get bored. And when I seen that segment on Raw, I get an overwhelming sense of fake joy. Cole tried, half-assed I might add, to seem excited that Shaq was there. When in the end, once he was done talking - he went directly back to that sad, "please shoot me", look on his face.
I'm sick and tired of listening to a guy who doesn't want to be there. And the W.W.E needs to know this as well. You aren't going to sell a product, when the person trying to sell it, doesn't even buy into it. So, what are everyone's thoughts on Michael Cole?
