The greatest commentator in SmackDown history is leaving the announcers booth, and heading to Raw to compete as a full-time wrestler. I think we should commemorate our wrestling god's tenure alongside Michael Cole by: (a) praying that he'll lariat DX's heads off when he goes to Raw, and (b) posting our favourite quotes from his time on commentary. What were his best BURNS on Miz and Cole? How did he best describe MVP's awesomeness? Post them all here.
I'll start us off with some of his signature quotes:
"They're fun to watch, Michael!"
"He smells like smoke 'cause he's been through fire."
"Six billion people on the planet and he's the strongest."
"Jimmy Wang Yang is NOT a redneck!"
"C'mon Michael, YEEHAW!"
"When the lights are on bright ..."
"The name Guerrero means warrior."
"Enjoy them while they're here, because they won't be here long."
"They'll be crying on the Internet."
"I'm not your partner, Cole!"
"They're a car crash waiting to happen."
"He's not a troll, he's a leprechaun, there's a whole family of them living under the ring!"
"He has parents - their names are Mr. and Mrs. Bastard and they live under the ring."
"Helms is SmackDown's best kept secret."
"Longest reign in SmackDown history."
"And now he makes a living saying one word."
"BALL IN!"
"It's great to be me."
"He's trying to protect his leprechaun!"
"The punches that knock you out are the ones you don't see coming."
"It's the next Mrs. Layfield!"
"The hottest women on television!"
"TORRIE WILSON! TORRIE WILSON! GODDAMN WE GOT TORRIE WILSON!"
"Rey Mysterio has a lot of machismo."
"Finlay has always wanted to be a world champion."
"He grew up fighting in bars in a warzone in Belfast, where fighting was the only way to survive."
"I LOVE IT!"
"The fat lady is about to sing!"
"Why don't you go wear a Matt Hardy T-shirt?"
"Smashmouth wrestling, I love it!"
"Dave Taylor's grandfather wrestled at the 1932 Olympics."
"He's half man, half amazing, half tag team champion, the only man with three halves!"
"Oh, now you're Nostradamus?"
"Here on SmackDown, the A-Show."
"He could do something truly great - he could rid professional wrestling of the Miz."
"Look at this reality-TV star punk in his Red Rooster starter kit."
"He's wearing a dress in the wrestling ring! That should be a felony!"
"There's no such thing as a brave Frenchman, it's an oxymoron."
