#1 He is intensely Micromanaged

Michael Cole spends three hours or more talking to wrestling fans every week on Monday night Raw, but most of what comes out of his mouth are not his own thoughts however. Cole was hired to do a specific job, and that job is to tell fans why Vince McMahon is letting various wrestlers use his airtime to tell their story.

Cole is always criticised for not calling the action as he see’s it, but is that really his fault?

The hidden story behind JBL and a WWE writer

Unfortunately, WWE has gotten to a point today where instead of just filling in the gaps, Cole is basically reading from a script, and Vince McMahon is literally in his ear yelling at him the instant he so much as hesitates for two seconds over one line. JR has stated before that one part of the job he found frustrating was Vince yelling in his ear on commentary.

Cole, on occasion, has reminded McMahon that he has been extremely repetitive over a few points and feels like it doesn’t need to be broadcast again. (Does everyone remember how to download the WWE app?)

But we all know how much Vince likes to listen to others’ opinions right?

It is a major problem with the WWE that it doesn’t exactly give Micheal Cole the chance to stand out on his own; it takes away from the product and keeps people’s dislike for him high.
