Guest Cerebus Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 "There has been talk within WWE to calling Tony Schiavone to hire him to replace Jim Ross for a few weeks on the RAW announcers table. This would play into the real life bitter rivalry between the two men and would avoid viewers from having to listen to Jonathan Coachman, who many feel is not getting the job done. Nevertheless the idea of Schiavone has been shot down by Kevin Dunn of WWE, so it is being doubted to happen." source: Rajahwwf.com Anyone know what Shiavone & Ross hate each other for?
Guest AndrewTS Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 "This would play into the real life bitter rivalry between the two men and would avoid viewers from having to listen to Jonathan Coachman, who many feel is not getting the job done." Wow, even WWE knows that Coach absolutely sucks.
Ultimo Dugas Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 Well finally the WWE is going to give us the feud that everyone's been waiting for, the feud that will determine who can oversell a main event more.
Guest Choken One Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 I don't blame Dunn, He has been at it for years...Why deal with another idiot announcer...But c'mon get rid of coach...He is fine as a Backstage guy...But not as a Announcer... hey! Al SNow isn't doing anything these days...let him rip it up on raw...

Al SNow isn't doing anything these days...let him rip it up on raw... Not as a color guy. Al is just not very witty. Although him on PBP and Foley on color...THAT would be gold.
Guest Choken One Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 U Dreamer could work well as a PBP guy...
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 Snow's on Heat instead of Lita now. I can see him being there for a while.
Guest FeArHaVoC Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 Why deal with another idiot announcer...But c'mon get rid of coach...He is fine as a Backstage guy...But not as a Announcer... How long did we rip on Michael Cole? These days, most of us like the little bastard. Coach will never get better working with Lawler.
Guest Downhome Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 I hope Schiavone comes in, I REALLY miss him. He's better than most, I've always prefered him actually, even over JR. Besides, both King and JR have become almost parody's of themselves, it'd be nice for a change. However, I don't know how a FEUD could work between the two, and God knows I don't want to see a match between them both.
Guest Lightning Flik Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 However, I don't know how a FEUD could work between the two, and God knows I don't want to see a match between them both. Who says they'd have a match? They'd just get some pitiful wrestlers to do the one upsmanship for the two guys. JR would get Test to do the wrestling for him. Schiavone would get Steiner to do his work. ...wait a minute. Dear God~! IT COULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN~!
Guest NoCalMike Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 YAAAAAAAAAAH. Ross vs. Schivone feud. Finally Vince is thinking. That is gonna flood the ratings gate wide open. WWE is back baby.(mark mode off) UGH....
Guest Plushy Al Logan Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 This is the most important thread in the history of our forum!
Guest DerangedHermit Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 We're outta time! See ya next week, folks!
Guest razazteca Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 They need Tony to do the During the commercials we left the tape machines rolling I don't know who is worst Tony shrilling Hogan or JR shrilling Austin. Back in WCW they did sound good together.........its time to bring back the 3 man announcer team for Monday Nite Nitro.
Rendclaw Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 ::imagines a three-man booth between JR, Schiavone and Lawler:: uhhh..... err.... But seriously, I cannot see JR and Tony today working together as they did back in the 80s...
Guest AndrewTS Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 I hope Schiavone comes in, I REALLY miss him. He's better than most, I've always prefered him actually, even over JR. Besides, both King and JR have become almost parodies of themselves, it'd be nice for a change. Is there ANYONE that WCW employed in the late 90's you don't want to see hired by WWE? I guess it's going to be JR back on Raw next week. Ugh.
Guest The Amazing Rando Posted April 30, 2003 Report Posted April 30, 2003 Maybe this could lead to an Announce Table on a Scaffold Match...first person to oversell something and fly from the scaffold to the floor LOSES
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Posted May 1, 2003 Report Posted May 1, 2003 Oh fuck it already and just call raw WCW Nitro..is it that hard?
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted May 1, 2003 Report Posted May 1, 2003 No one answered your question, I noticed. I guess I will. Back in the early 90s when they were both announcers in WCW, after Bill Watts was fired many expected Jim Ross to take over since he had the expirience and respect, but it instead went To Eirc Bishoff, who made Tony Schiavone executive producer instead of Ross. This pissed off Ross (really who wants Tony Schiavone as their boss) and he left for the WWF. I think thats the story.
Guest Olympic Slam Posted May 1, 2003 Report Posted May 1, 2003 ::imagines a three-man booth between JR, Schiavone and Lawler:: uhhh..... err.... But seriously, I cannot see JR and Tony today working together as they did back in the 80s... Now there's an axis of evil! Why are people ripping on Coach so much? He isn't that bad! A step up from the cantankerous Boomer Sooner.
Guest Trivia247 Posted May 1, 2003 Report Posted May 1, 2003 its all about the coveted First chair position, and both men wanted it since both were in WCW. but neither of dem Bitches can outshine.... The Fallen..Gorilla Monsoon.
