Calling the Action:10 best Wrestling announcers

#9 Lord Alfred Hayes

The UK Native and former pro wrestler held a black belt in Judo and was a major player in the St. Louis wrestling scene in the 1970s.

Hayes began working for the WWE in 1982 primarily as a road agent but started to do some on-camera work as well. He was the main interviewer at the 1985 Wrestlemania event, and gradually branched out into commentary.

Hayes's trademarks were his crisp, Oxford accent and infectious laugh. He truly enjoyed the spectacle of Pro Wrestling, and his time in the ring gave him a unique perspective on the action.

Hayes passed away in 2005, but the wrestling world will always remember his dulcet tones wafting through their television speakers.
