strummer Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 WWE broadcaster Tazz will miss tonight's Smackdown taping due to the death of his father, who passed away over the weekend. Tazz will still be at WrestleMania and will call the Smackdown brand matches at the show. We have not heard what WWE's plans are for a color announcer at tonight's taping. We here at PWInsider send our condolences to Tazz and his family during this trying time. From PWI RIP Mr. Senerca
MillenniumMan831 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 RIP . . . seemed like a ballbuster of a guy from the Before They Were Superstars 2 dvd.
Slickster Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 My condolences to the Senerca family. Without him, a big part of ECW wouldn't have ever existed.
tbondrage99 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 RIP. Anyone know who will be taking Tazz's place tonight?
Guest Deadbolt Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 I would think that Steve Romero will fill in for Tazz (Steve is the new color guy on Velocity...well, I think he's the Color guy because Josh Matthews seems to be doing the Play By Play) or Josh Matthews, or perhaps even both. I would like to see a 3 man commentator team on SmackDown! It would differentiate the brands from Raw.
tbondrage99 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 I hope its former Heat announcer Al Snow.
Golgo 13 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 Steve Romero and Michael Cole on the same announce team. I shudder at the thought. I'm hoping it's Matthews. He and Cole have worked together on Velocity and did a fine job.
The Czech Republic Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 I haven't watched Velocity since Confidential got cancelled because I don't know when it's on. Doesn't Romero suck or something?
slimm44 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Anyone know who will be taking Tazz's place tonight? Carlito...haha. No I have no idea but it will probably be one of the Velocity guys or JR...or maybe (cross fingers) Paul Heyman
Guest Shadow Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Carlito would be great. I'll assume that Mathews does those duties tonight.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 I haven't watched Velocity since Confidential got cancelled because I don't know when it's on. Doesn't Romero suck or something? He's fond of saying "solar plexus". A lot.
The Czech Republic Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Why? Did he try to study Gorilla Monsoon tapes, get bored in the first thirty seconds, and say "well that should be enough"?
Golgo 13 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 I was watching Velocity a couple of weeks ago and he botched a few rather simple move calls, which pretty much made me think of Schiavone with all the personality of Todd Grisham.
The Czech Republic Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Don't forget, Schiavone was good once.
Dobbs 3K Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 I always thought Michael Hayes was an underrated announcer when WWE used him for a short bit on RAW. Maybe he could fill in?
tbondrage99 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 I still say it should be Al Snow. Well since Smackdown is finished now does anyone know yet?
Guest Shadow Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 I'm pretty sure it's a west coast show tonight or at least in Texas like raw was...so it's a little later then usual
