Samoa Joe brings a very dignified air to the commentary booth in my opinion and the way that he calls the action is very modern and very sleek too. Vic Joseph is the voice of the traditional WWE commentator, but he has a role to play and the man does it well.
It just seems like Jerry Lawler does not belong on the same commentary table as the two men. The generation gap between the announcers is pretty evident.

It is especially difficult to be impartial at moments like when Jerry Lawler refers to Aleister Black's finisher The Black Mass, as 'Black Magic', which is a cardinal sin, if you consider how strongly WWE wants to push Black at this moment. And even if you ignore the botch, his commentary was pretty insufferable all through.
Can someone please call Nigel McGuinness up to WWE RAW soon?
