Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2005 Austin on commentary would be unbearable, since he'd be color guy and inevitably paired with JR. Yes, think about that pair for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2005 JR can be saved. He did well with Tazz at the Rumble last year. He isn't what he used to be regardless, but I think a large part of his problem is that Lawler drags him down. How exactly does a commentator "lose his edge," so to say, especially with someone as skilled as J.R. I think the bad commentary is reflective of the product, rather than the announcers. JR commentates, and forces any up-and-coming commentators to commentate, the WWE style. Shill for the main angles, pay little or no attention to the match, let the color guy throw in his lame quips, repeat. Orton's just a dick, and HHH is the dick we're supposed to hate. I thought HHH would be the asshole...and the point is we're supposed to want to see the dick--well, you know... I don't expect this to be the final straw for the Orton Mania push, because I think they're still going to give Orton a shot (hopefully no Rumble '94 finish for the Rumble itself, though, with O and B). .
