Michael Cole still sucks.
I don't care how many little shoots he does on Cena, it doesn't change a thing.
My ears have been in pain every time I've watched RAW since Michael Cole became a heel. He is absolutely AWFUL.
Back when King was the heel commentator, he was clever and witty when calling the action. He knew how to put over a heel and run down a face in a way which helped both wrestlers and added to the entertainment of the show. He was so good that he could make segments more exciting and entertaining with his commentary.
Michael Cole is just an annoying turd. Everything he says is forced, he doesn't know how to put anyone over, he just bores everyone to death and ruins the show.
