Agree with you on this point -- I really dislike the pose Michaels does -- but I do like that whole pose-pose-FREEZE thing they do with the matchup screens.
What I wish they would do more: Music video packages to hype up an entire Pay-Per-View card. It's hard to explain it, but I know they've done it specifically for SummerSlam 2002, Vengeance 2003, and SummerSlam 2003. They run through each match on the card and show a few seconds of highlights from that particular feud to hype it up before zooming off to the next match, all while playing whatever the PPV's theme song is. I've always been a sucker for those types of video packages.
