Sportskeeda's Greg Bush was keeping count of how many times Michael Cole uttered the term 'freak' during the course of WWE SmackDown and thankfully, he wasn't taking a shot every time the term was uttered or he'd have been unable to focus on his writing duties and responsibilities. There is a story going around that he may be renamed 'The Freak', going forward on WWE SmackDown, and one really has to wonder if that's a good idea. But the number of times that Michael Cole uses the term is extremely distracting and honestly, hurts the product.

And the same could be said for the overuse of the term 'tribal' on WWE SmackDown.
For Roman Reigns to reveal the consequences of the big match with Jey Uso would have made sense, but the term 'tribal consequences' is just weird and to be honest, a little silly. One gets that it had to do with what happens within the tribe, but WWE SmackDown's creative staff could honestly do better.
