Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted October 14, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 14, 2014 Thread worthy news? Nah, that's why it's already been posted elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted October 14, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 14, 2014 I've never been a fan. He always sounds so effeminate and soft. It's a shame everyone in the office hates Howard Finkel, he's the best announcer by miles. If they are looking for a replacement I remember PWG having some fat black bloke who was really good. They should get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted October 14, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 14, 2014 I never liked him as an announcer. He seemed like an announcer in training – permanently – while out of his depth and lacking a severe amount of bass in his voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 A few weeks ago one of the rumour websites mentioned that there was talk of WWE releasing Lillian Garcia and Tony Chimel.  That should have been the warning light for the only other announcer I know that was not mentioned to getting released.  I wasn't initially a huge fan of Justin, but he grew on me. Particularly from seeing him at live events interact with the crowd and always make time for kids and disabled people.  Can see him back at some point, and waltzing straight into random indy work with TNA, Jarrett etc. Albeit he'll probably need to support that with a real job.

PBWFan Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 he is synonymous with wwe programming. Think TNA would throw a decent contract at him right away. Anything to stop people from switching on over while channel surfing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members garynysmon Posted October 14, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 14, 2014 I was never really a fan of his work, but he grew on me as a person when I heard him on the Colt Cabana podcast and how much he loved old-school Wrestling etc. Poor bloke.

Undefeated Steak Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I can't see this being a one-sided deal. Who's to say Roberts isn't wanting to move on and try something different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane O' Mac Version 2 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 He started the WWE job at 22, so it could very well be the only proper job he's had (discounting the regular teen stuff like fast food places). From what I've read though, working in WWE's all he's ever wanted. He's not a Coach or Grisham that wanted to be on ESPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
