Heel announcers

By Scott Keith on 17 July 2019

Can we please get rid of the concept of the heel announcer? It feels so dated and silly at this point.

I used to love Bobby Heenan and Jesse Ventura back in the day. But they were special. They were entertaining. It doesn't work today and just makes the product seem corny and carny.

I hope when AEW launches, they skip the heel commentator and just put over the wrestlers and storylines.

What do you think?

Yeah, but if we don't have Corey Graves and Renee Young screaming at each other with petty arguments about what the motivation of a heel is, how will we ever know? By having someone CUT A PROMO? Yeah, right.
