A Tribute to the Legends of WWE Commentary
In a heartwarming moment during WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, Michael Cole took center stage, paying homage to his legendary broadcast partners. But here's where it gets interesting... Cole, with his signature style, decided to shine a light on those who have shared the commentary desk with him over the years.
As the camera focused on Cole and his current partner, Wade Barrett, Cole began his tribute. He mentioned names that have become synonymous with WWE's iconic matches, including Taz, J.B.L. (John Bradshaw Layfield), Corey Graves, Jim Ross, and the one and only Jerry 'The King' Lawler. These names represent a rich history of WWE broadcasting, and Cole's shoutout was a nod to their collective impact on the sport.
And this is the part most people miss: Cole's tribute wasn't just a nostalgic trip down memory lane. It was a powerful reminder of the impact these commentators have had on the careers of wrestlers like John Cena. Cena, in his final match at Saturday Night's Main Event, will face GUNTHER, the winner of 'The Last Time is Now' tournament. A match of such magnitude deserves a commentary team that can do it justice, and Cole's shoutout highlighted the importance of these broadcast partners.
