Joey Styles has reached a verbal agreement with the WWE. He should be signing a contract pretty soon.

The question that I pose to you is what do you think the WWE should do with the Raw announce team. Who should be on it and why? 2 announcers or 3? What do you think? If JR isn't on your announce team, what will his role be in the WWE?

I would have to go with Joey Styles and Jerry Lawler.

Joey Styles has been the voice of ECW for as long as I can remember, and unlike some commentators within the WWE, he actually knows the names of all of the moves. He has proven that he is well-versed in WWE history and I have also heard that he hasn't been getting any prompts through his headset because he has been doing so good.

Jerry Lawler is really one my favorite wrestlers to come out of Memphis, besides Andy Kaufman. Speaking of Andy, their feud was great and when Lawler played himself in Man on the Moon, it brought back a lot of memories. If they are going to have Joey as the face announcer, Jerry plays the perfect heel. With Coach right now Jerry seems to be both, and that sux. He should be a heel and that's it.

With Jim Ross, I think that he should be either with creative or the writing staff. His wrestling knowledge can't be beat, and he knows what works and what doesn't. Either way, the WWE is still using Jim Ross.

I'd bring back Bobby Heenan. He was entertaining as hell on the Warrior DVD.

JR is the Executive Vice President Of Business Strategies for WWE I think. I don't mind anymore that he isn't on TV anymore since he has been on TV for a long time.

Right now I don't mind a 3 man announce team since they are working together pretty well. However, I think they will eventually drop King(maybe move him to Heat) and leave just Coach and Styles since they seem to have some good heat between them. King hasn't really been a heel in years, he's been like 80% face/20% heel. If they were to make him like he used to be then I wouldn't mind it being Styles/King and making Coach a manager.

Visit and shop for video games at my Amazon-based store, also get discounted HD DVDs while they last.

Styles and King. Coach can be the new "T-Shirt Gun Guy". I can't stand him, and not in the normal "heel" way. He is just frickin' terrible...

I say put Styles with Tazz for sure. They were great during Survivor Series.

Coach is a heat getter. He should be a manager in my opinion and help out a younger talent. Maybe Gregory Helms. In that case i would keep Styles and Lawler on Raw, with King playing his 98/99 heel announce character.

I wish my sex life was like ECW, first you get a One Night Stand followed by 2 months of nostalgic orgasms and then 6 months of constant sucking.

Don't we do this thread every week Eric? I forget amongst all the boning ones.

On Raw I'd have Jim Ross & Tazz

On Smackdown I'd have Joey Styles & Paul Heyman

And I'd bone all of 'em given a chance.

For those who didn't catch Survivor Series Joey and Tazz were gold on the mic, they deffinatly should be teamed up.

And as for Coach, Tazz well and truely ripped into him... which was soooooo good to hear!!

The Problem Solver
