I'm torn with this choice because I dislike these guys so much but at least it's funny to watch Saxton get bashed night in and night out Soooooo that leaves

But seriously...JBL is pretty bad...but it at least he has a personality and was
a fairly successful in-ring performer.
What has Otunga ever really done?
Apart from being a member of the Nexus and marrying some singer who
I've never heard of...(Remember I'm in Australia and I don't listen to radio)

tunga:He personally doesn't add anything to the commentary.
Mauro can mess up his lines but he adds a lot of excitement, same with JBL...athough if I hear "BALL GAME" one more time...
Tom is good and should be given more to do.
On Raw, Corey is entertaining, although sometimes he talks too much shit about Byron...
Byron is boring, but I have seen him have some potential.
Michael Cole is good...but he is restricted. On shows Vince is not in his ear, he can be really good. On Raw though...Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Otunga has done nothing to earn his whatever kind of hate he has. He's bit of a none entity. But he's also completely inoffensive. JBL is going down as one of the worst color commentary guys in history. He takes utter joy out of being the voice of Vince McMahon

I've heard people complain about Saxton and JBL because they can be boring or say stupid things, but Otunga actively insults the wrestlers with shit like "Oh he's not fit". Oh fuck off David, you're supposed to be face. He's only gotten to where he is because of his wife, and he's too conceited to realize that he has nothing to offer

Cole annoys me with his fake laughter and he's an idiot all around, Otunga is pretty bad too
..... but I can't stand Graves and he tries way to hard to be cool by picking on Byron & I don't mind Byron as much as other people, atleast he tries to call the match.
COREY GRAVES.... overrated

Graves is GOAT.
Brings back the old Heenan-Monsoon vibe to the commentary team.

JBL. Automatically a lot of people shoot towards Otunga and Saxton and yeah, they are bad. They are boring. But they also aren't dominant voices in the commentary. It's often easy to just block them out and forget they are there.
JBL, on the other hand, is always noticeable. And he has to constantly yell at and try to intimidate the other commentators in order to come across as a heel commentator and I feel that is ridiculous. Jesse Ventura raised his voice occasionally and so did Bobby Heenan, but both guys were able to get their point across without yelling all the time. JBL seems like he is trying to intimidate his fellow commentators and that has never sat well with me.
Furthermore, JBL seems to sometimes forget he is a heel commentator. He'll praise legends and then a sentence later condemn them. I'll never forget Survivor Series 2014 when Sting showed up and JBL seemed excited and happily listed off Sting's accomplishments. Then, he berated Sting for having no business being at the show... although a few seconds later, he was excited about it. And he does this A LOT.
But mostly it's the yelling at the other commentators. I can ignore Saxton and Otunga when they are annoying. I can't ignore JBL when he is annoying.
