JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 Tony Schiavone constantly called things "THE BIGGEST IN THE HISTORY OF OUR SPORT!" Jim Ross is great at overhyping things as we know, with great stuff like "DAMN YOU TRIPLE H! DAMN YOUR BLACK HEART TO HELL!" What's your favorite announcer overreaction or overhyping of something that you've ever heard? What did they just freak out trying to sell that you just weren't buying?

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 Pretty much anything Michael Cole has tried to hype I've found he's overreacting to. It's not that he's necessarily overhyping something, as much as his reaction is so forced, and terribly so, that he comes across as badly overhyping, even when what he's pushing actually is big news.

Si82 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 Tony Schiavone constantly called things "THE BIGGEST IN THE HISTORY OF OUR SPORT!" I think Michael Cole is just as bad as Schiavone when he referes to everything as being the biggest, most etc... "IN WWE HISTORY!" Jim Ross is great at overhyping things as we know, with great stuff like "DAMN YOU TRIPLE H! DAMN YOUR BLACK HEART TO HELL!" I personally hated it more when Ross would start screaming his lungs out whenever Steve Austin would come out. Stuff like "AND BY GOD IT'S THE RATTLESNAKE!"

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 How about when Cole, on this past Smackdown, said that when Booker T pinned JBL it was JBL's first pinfall loss since WM XX, when JBL was pinned by Rikishi on the first or second SD after WM XX. It's one thing for WWE to rewrite history that happened decades ago, but when they rewrite stuff from within the past year, that's just getting stupid.

Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted November 10, 2004 Joey Styles every 5 minutes during ECW shows. One of the guys that does the New Japan shows is hilarious. He basically sends 3/4 of the match sitting there agreeing with the other guy and then just screams towards the end of the match. It seriously sounds like he's about to have a heart attack when he really gets going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JMA Report post Posted November 10, 2004 Every single time Triple H has set-up Austin or caused him to lose, JR has overreacted. "DAMN YOUR SOUL TO HELL, TRIPLE H!" and "YOU ROTTEN SONUVOFABITCH!" Which reminds me, I never did like the kayfabe friendship of Austin and JR, it totally went against Austin's character to have friends, let alone an announcer. Michael Cole's "NO! NOT THIS WAY!" and "HE STOLE ONE!" (even when a wrestler didn't cheat) are annoying as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Niggardly King 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2004 The JR oversell that has always made me laugh, is after Triple H did something "diabolic" he was posing with the belt on top of the commentators table, while JR is just pointing at him and going on with his usual rant. Plus you can add a bunch of JR oversells with Michaels, Ston Cold, or The Dudleys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
