WWE Raw Superstar Shake-Up: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (April 16)
8. Coaching Practice
Replacing Booker T on Monday Night Raw should have been one of the few occasions that taking a WWE commentary job was an easy win. The former World Heavyweight Champion was a weekly calamity in the role, earning enough derision from Corey Graves that the two were able to believably work a bullying angle into their interplay.
Despite returning from a stint as a legitimate journalist in his anchor role on EPSN, Jonathan Coachman has conspired to be even worse than he was in his original run. A perfect example of why nobody has nostalgia for the grim mid-2000s, he brought lukewarm takes then and absolutely b*stard freezing ones now.
After grossly overstating how Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn could not appear on Raw before the reveal of how, in fact, they could, actually, he topped that in the following segment by completely showing up Sheamus and Cesaro. Like Kevin Malone from The Office begging for the meaning of a bean, Coach matched the Scranton resident's inanity and IQ with some damaging discussion about the origins of The Bar's team-name. Maybe watch the f*cking show any given week for your answer, mate?
Vince McMahon is literally listening to every word farted out of that wretched Raw booth every week. Surely he can hear it's time for a change?
